Researchers have linked this cycle to Earth and Mars’ interactions with the Sun. Moreover, this cyclical phenomenon has rarely been detected in geological records. “The gravity fields of the ...

According to the team, absences or hiatuses in the sediment deposition record line up with times when Mars’s gravity exerts maximum force on Earth, subtly impacting our planet’s orbital stability.

Simpson and Chen ran mathematical models looking at how differently sized Earth-like worlds would have affected the rest of our Solar System. The planet sizes tested were 1 percent of Earth's mass, ...

A new study has revealed that gravity’s effect on Earth is constantly shaping the surface of our planet. When our planet formed, it did so by pulling dust and rock toward its gravitational field.

So close and yet so far. It’s an apt expression for the planet Mars these days. With the red planet moving in for its closest approach to Earth for the rest of this decade, NASA officials are ...

The company said the grant will help rapidly assess subsurface structures, optimise landing site selection, rover navigation, infrastructure planning, and potential resource estimation.
