What is Earth’s Crust? You might not realize it, but you’re standing on a thin shell of solid rock encasing a vast quantity of molten rock. This is the Earth’s crust, and it’s the part of the planet that has cooled down enough to solidify. But just a few kilometers below yo...

The breaking down of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface is called? What term describes water that is deposited on the Earth's surface? A fissure in the earth's crust through which molten lava and gases erupt is called? What type of rock forms from the cooli...
Even if the Earth were perfectly flatandwent on forever, the horizon would still be exactly level: 180° of sky and 180° of ground (instead of the paltry 179.92° of ground we have). The only difference between...

Even if we assumed that things like Vulcanism were caused by charge rising up through the crust, we would still have to subtract out surface warming by the Sun and all other infrared sources. I think it might be possible to get very rough estimates this way, but it is not something I ...

The truth is out there. You want to believe. But you are becoming more and more frustrated because there's no conclusive evidence. All this time, the reason could be basic physics. A study submitted to the International Journal of Astrobiology suggests t
