Shedding light on comet Chury's unexpected chemical complexity
Bern, Switzerland (SPX) Jul 05, 2022
A team of researchers led by the University of Bern has for the first time identified an unexpected richness of complex organic molecules at a comet. This was achieved thanks to the analysis of data collected during ESA's Rosetta mission at comet 67P/ChuryumovGerasimenko, also known as Chury. Delivered to the early Earth by impacting comets, these organics may have helped to kick-start carbon-ba

Seismic waves from earthquakes reveal changes in the Earth's outer core
Blacksburg VA (SPX) Jun 24, 2022
In May 1997, a large earthquake shook the Kermadec Islands region in the South Pacific Ocean. A little over 20 years later, in September 2018, a second big earthquake hit the same location, its waves of seismic energy emanating from the same region.
Though the earthquakes occurred two decades apart, because they occurred in the same region, they'd be expected to send seismic waves through
