A team of scientists from the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona, TU Delft, and Caltech has developed a new method to compute how tides affect the interiors of planets and moons in the Solar System. Importantly, they’ve looked at the effects of body tides on objects that don’t have a perfectly
Sedimentary mineral deposits found on the surface of Mars may have been left by an ancient sea 3.5 billion years ago. New results from China’s Tianwen-1/Zhurong mission suggest the presence of features consistent with a coastline in the southern Utopia Planitia and provide further evidence for the existence of a short-lived ocean early in the

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are millisecond-duration events detected from beyond our Milky Way Galaxy. FRB emission characteristics favor magnetars as their sources, as evidenced by FRB-like bursts from a magnetar in the Milky Way, and the star-forming nature of FRB host galaxies. However, the processes that produce FRB sources remain unknown. According to new research
DNA methylation is one of several epigenetic mechanisms crucial for regulating gene expression in eukaryotic organisms. Arabidopsis thaliana. Image credit: Carl Davies, CSIRO / CC BY 3.0. DNA methylation is a normal biological process in living cells wherein small chemical groups called methyl groups are added to DNA. This activity controls which genes are turned
