For a long time, our view of Ceres was fuzzy, said Scott King, a geoscientist in the Virginia Tech College of Science. A dwarf planet and the largest body found in the asteroid belt — the region ...

New research published in the journal Geoscience Frontiers highlights the cyclic patterns of geologic activity on Earth. Scientists from New York University report findings from an analysis of major ...

Geoscientists at Virginia Tech may have figured out why Ceres — a dwarf planet and the largest celestial body in the solar system’s asteroid belt — was found to show “unexpected geological activity,” ...

In a recent study published in American Geophysical Union Advances, computer models can elucidate how the geologic activity on dwarf planet Ceres could be explained by decaying radiogenic elements ...

Earth is constantly evolving and reshaping itself through geological processes. Sometimes, these processes can be very dramatic: most recently, the picturesque but destructive lava flows from the ...
