A fascinating new study has shaken up our understanding of Earth’s oceans. It reveals that around 15 million years ago, ...

In this video, we take you on a journey to the Pleistocene Epoch, a time when Earth looked vastly different from today. Massive ice sheets stretched across North America, Europe, and Asia. Glaciers ...

A 259-million-year-old fossil skull of Yinshanosaurus angustus has been found, filling a key evolutionary gap in ...

Overall, the researchers believe that there could have been a bottleneck somewhere between 930,000 to 813,000 years ago, which led to a 98.7% reduction of humans on Earth.

This is an Inside Science story.. Earth's first continents may have emerged from the oceans roughly 750 million years earlier than previously thought, rising from the seas in a manner completely ...

Scientists have managed to beautifully illustrate this idea through a 1-minute video (watch below) showing the movement of Earth’s tectonic and plate boundaries over the past 1.8 billion years ...

The Earth of 300 million years ago was vastly different than the Earth of today. For one, oxygen in the atmosphere was 40% to 50% higher than it is today.

Scientists created a simulation showing that early Earth still retained chemical traces of its igneous youth, 4.5 billion years ago.

In a first-of-its-kind study, Stanford researchers have measured how the abundance of ocean life has changed over the past half-billion years of Earth's history.
