Microscopic water droplets trapped inside ancient salt crystals have provided evidence supporting a radical theory that the chemical composition of Earth’s oceans has changed over the past 500 million ...
Researchers just can’t seem to keep their hands off asteroid Itokawa, and with good reason. Following on from the discovery of pyroxene, which contains water in its crystal structure, in a sample ...
An image from NASA’s Galileo orbiter shows Europa’s icy surface, crisscrossed by reddish-brown streaks of radiation-darkened salt. (Credit: NASA / JPL / Ted Stryk) A prime target in the search for ...
Sodium chloride, better known as table salt, isn't exactly the type of mineral that captures the imagination of scientists. However, a smattering of tiny salt crystals discovered in a sample from an ...
From table salt to snowflakes, and from gemstones to diamonds—we encounter crystals everywhere in daily life, usually cubic (table salt) or hexagonal (snowflakes). Researchers from Noushine ...
The new technique allows scientists to see each particle that makes up colloidal crystals and to create dynamic three-dimensional models. A team of New York University researchers has created a new ...
An international group of researchers from New York University has developed a novel method of visualizing them that is similar to having X-Ray vision. With this new method, which they have fittingly ...
The discovery of tiny salt grains in a sample from an asteroid provides strong evidence that liquid water may be more common in the solar system than previously thought. Sodium chloride, better known ...
