Scientists have launched a fresh effort to find out what could be producing oxygen at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

On the red and dusty surface of Mars, nearly 100 million miles from Earth, an instrument the size of a lunchbox is proving it can reliably do the work of a small tree. The MIT-led Mars Oxygen In-Situ ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) gets a breath of fresh air as it collides beams of protons and oxygen ions for the very first time. Oxygen–oxygen and neon–neon collisions are also on the menu of the ...

You are taught early in science that oxygen on Earth comes from sunlight. Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria use light to split water and release oxygen, shaping the atmosphere and making complex life ...

For the first time, researchers have managed to isolate and directly observe individual oxygen atoms inside liquid water, catching a substance that usually hides behind the familiar H 2 O formula in ...

This hardware is only an experiment, but it suggests producing breathable air from the red planet's thin atmosphere is going to be feasible. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens ...

When temperatures soar, so do heart attacks. Now, a lab experiment explains just how temperatures climbing into Fahrenheit’s three-digits can cause ischemia and potential heart attacks, all while ...

As we shift toward more sustainable fuels, natural gas and biogas, which mainly contain methane (CH4), have become important sources of energy and raw materials for chemical production. However, these ...
