There may be hidden layers to Earth’s core dictated by chemical composition. In A Nutshell Lab experiments suggest Earth’s ...

Back in 2013, Occipital made waves with a 3D mapping sensor for the iPad. Flash forward five years and Occipital is back with a new 3D sensor — this one a standalone product. The Structure Core is ...

I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR, tablets, gaming and future/emerging trends in our changing world. Other obsessions include magic, immersive theater, ...

Earth’s inner core has long challenged researchers because seismic waves do not move through it uniformly. Compressional waves generated by earthquakes travel roughly 3 to 4 percent faster along Earth ...

The core structure is more like Earth's and therefore more likely to have produced a dynamo at some point. On Earth, it is the thermal (heat) changes between the solid inner core, the liquid layer, ...

Recent research utilizing advanced supercomputer simulations challenges the prevailing hypothesis that a giant impact formed Jupiter's dilute core. These simulations, incorporating a novel mixing ...

For years, scientists thought Jupiter’s strange interior was the result of a massive collision in its youth. But new research suggests that the planet’s diffuse, “fuzzy” core wasn’t born from a ...

A new paper suggests Saturn’s core is more like a fluid than a solid, and makes up more of the planet’s interior than we thought. With its massive rings stretching out 175,000 miles in diameter, ...
