New research suggests that Venus's crust might be significantly thinner than previously thought. Scientists at NASA have ...

Venus may not have Earth-style tectonic plates, but it’s far from geologically quiet. A new model shows its crust is ...

A new study reveals fresh signs of geological activity on Venus — clues that the planet's mysterious surface is still ...

Using fault geometry data, scientists simulated the Noto Peninsula earthquake and explained why uplift varied so drastically ...

Earth’s crust is divided into huge, rigid tectonic plates that move across its surface. Their slow motion powers earthquakes, fuels volcanoes, and drives the endless reshaping of continents.

New research shows that North America is slowly sinking into the earth, and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

"The National Seismic Hazard model shows that there is a 15% chance of a large (over magnitude 8) earthquake happening ...

The behaviour is similar to the tectonic plates found on Earth, which are huge sections of crust that move on top of a viscous interior and are constantly changing the surface. Venus doesn't have ...

Based on the model of the Noto quake ... relative fault orientations to the compressional force acting in the tectonic plate in this region," said Ando. Looking ahead, the researchers are ...
