It is sometimes called the earth's "sister planet"because they have almost the same size and shape. The earth is the planet where we live. From space, the earth looks blue because it has so much water. Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system. Saturn is known for having ...

The absence of a hydrosphere and/or icesphere on Venus and Mars is likely due to their high internal temperature profiles, which have probably never dropped below the respective solidi of these planets. Thus, most of the free H 2O above the water line of Venus and Mars is still trapped ...
They have no solid surfaces, however, and their densities are so low that one of them, Saturn, would actually float in water. Each of the outer planets has a magnetic field, a ring system, and many known moons, with more likely to be discovered. Pluto has no known rings and only ...
A Canary Islands volcano pushed rivers of molten lava through the earth. Now scientists and explorers trek through the cooling underground, looking for insights into life on this planet—and perhaps on others.

D Our Milky Way Galaxy may be home to 2 billion planets that have the right conditions to support life. Thes planets have the correct temperature for liquid water. While no one knows what alien life would look like, if it is anything like life on earth, it would need water to keep al...
The find brings to 21 the number of exoplanets orbiting stars in a habitable zone where surface temperatures could allow for liquid water, creating the potential for life. Nearly 550 of the newly validated planets could be rocky planets like Earth, based on their size. Researchers who published...
predominantly frozen water, but frozencarbon dioxide,carbon monoxide,methanol, and other ices are also present. These cosmic ice balls are laced with rock dust and a rich variety of organic compounds, many of which are collected in tiny grains. Some comets may have more such “dirt” than ice...
I started with the water section, which was a great choice—the warm water and textured walkways were a soothing treat for our tired feet after a long day of walking and standing in the waiting area. The installationswere fun to explore. My only would be to add chairs in the ...
