Even more remarkable, the helium remained stable inside the iron’s crystal lattice even after pressure was reduced, ...

Since mankind started taking nature for granted, it has witnessed a scarcity of resources, especially water. While the world has always fought for water on the planet's surface, scientists have ...

The discovery that helium and iron can mix at the temperatures and pressures found at the center of Earth could settle a long-standing debate over how our planet formed. Primordial helium from the ...

After decades of debate, scientists confirm the moon has a solid iron core—mirroring Earth’s inner structure and reshaping how we understand our nearest neighbor. New data and advanced ...

Scientists have coaxed one of the universe’s most stubborn elements into a new compound. Formed under intense pressures, the newly discovered compound packs helium atoms into crystalline iron ...
