Between 2006 and 2008, Something in the Bowels of the Earth Altered Its Gravity— and Left No Trace Until Now
A quiet but measurable shift in Earth’s gravity field between 2006 and 2008 has baffled scientists for years. Now, nearly two decades on, new research suggests the anomaly may have been triggered by a ...
A new study has revealed that gravity's effect on Earth is constantly shaping the surface of our planet. When our planet formed, it did so by pulling dust and rock toward its gravitational field. As ...
Earth and other terrestrial planets probably use their gravitational forces to tear apart asteroids ― but this creates more streams of smaller asteroids. When you purchase through links on our site, ...
