The James Webb Space Telescope observed a large amount of methane around 3I/ATLAS, revealing just how different it is from comets from our solar system.

Lurking at the bottom of the ocean is a ticking time bomb of potential climate disaster. This would-be catastrophe is fire-ice, the oxymoronic compound frozen deep under the ocean floor. As the oceans ...

Permafrost that's thawing deep under some Arctic lakes is speeding up climate warming. That's according to a recent study led by the University of Alaska Fairbanks, published earlier this month in ...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has detected methane on interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, marking the first time this gas has ...

New research has shown that fire-ice—frozen methane which is trapped as a solid under our oceans—is vulnerable to melting due to climate change and could be released into the sea. An international ...

Skyscraper-size spires of mehtane ice may cover around 60% of Pluto's equatorial region — a larger area than scientists previously estimated, new research finds. The study, published July 5 in the ...

If you have ever cooked on a gas stove or seen a flame flicker to life with the turn of a knob, you have seen natural gas in action. Supplying that energy at scale, however, is far more complicated.

Icy chunks of frozen methane and water are not responsible for the periodic increases in atmospheric methane recorded in Greenland ice cores, according to a Penn State geoscientist. The ice core ...
