Water doesn’t behave the same way in a glass as it does as ice in your freezer. When water is heated to several thousand ...

A new study in Nature Astronomy found that water came into being in the universe earlier than researchers in the field thought to be possible. In fact, study authors believe that water might have been ...

A new study suggests that the first water molecules in the universe may have formed far earlier than previously assumed —potentially just 100 to 200 million years after the big bang. This timeline ...

At extreme pressures and temperatures, water becomes superionic — a solid that behaves partly like a liquid and conducts ...

Earth’s deep interior may hold water equal to today’s oceans, challenging long-held views of how the planet became habitable.

It’s one of those scientific questions that’s so simple, so fundamental, it’s hard to believe we didn’t have an answer—until now: What does water look like when it’s forming? From oceans to puddles, ...

Without water, life on Earth could not exist as it does today. Understanding the history of water in the universe is critical to understanding how planets like Earth come to be. Astronomers typically ...

Scientists discover water that's solid and liquid. Superionic ice found in lab could explain Uranus and Neptune's bizarre ...

You might assume that there has always been water on Earth — that water was there from the very beginning when our planet formed. But scientists increasingly think that water on Earth may have ...
