Chemists Expose Existence of Sulfurous Acid in Gas Phase beneath Atmospheric Stipulations

Chemists at the Leibniz Institute for Tropospheric Research have provided experimental evidence that sulfurous acid (H2SO3), once formed in the gas phase, is kinetically stable enough to allow its characterization and subsequent reactions. In the gas phase, if once formed, sulfurous acid shows a certain kinetic stability with an estimated lifetime of at least one

Planetary Researchers Plot Cloud Atlas of Mars

The images in the Martian Cloud Atlas have been captured by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) instrument on ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft. Lee waves on Mars are created by the wind encountering obstacles and build up on the ‘leeward’ or downwind side. Image credit: ESA / DLR / FU Berlin. Due to the elliptical

Cretaceous-Duration Toothed Rooster Ate Gymnosperm Fruits, No longer Fish

Paleontologists have found the fossilized seeds of gymnosperm trees — relatives of today’s conifers and ginkgos — in stomachs of two specimens of Longipteryx chaoyangensis, one of the earliest known birds and one of the strangest. The discovery shows that these birds were eating fruits, despite a long-standing hypothesis that they feasted on fish, and

120-Million-Year-Frail Footprints of Polar Dinosaurs Found in Australia

The newly-discovered footprints of theropod and ornithopod dinosaurs date back to the Early Cretaceous epoch, over 120 million years ago, when Australia was still connected to Antarctica. Melissa Lowery and Anthony Martin examine a dinosaur track. Image credit: Ruth Schowalter. The Early Cretaceous dinosaur footprints were discovered in the Wonthaggi Formation south of Melbourne, Australia.
