This unusual discovery comes from the University of Hawaii at Manoa. What has been observed is the sign of iron reacting with oxygen and forming rouging. Yet how can this be happening if the Moon is ...

Scientists have discovered that the Moon is rusting due to oxygen particles originating from Earth. These particles travel through space and interact with iron-rich minerals on the lunar surface, ...

As the world’s population continues to grow, so does its appetite for cereal grains, which include such dietary staples as wheat. This growing demand has driven agricultural scientists to develop ...

Atom-level simulations reveal the reason iron rusts in supposedly 'inert' supercritical carbon dioxide fluid. Trace amounts of water can cause a reaction at the interface between iron and the fluid, ...

The Moon, long thought to be a barren and unchanging celestial body, is now showing a surprising and puzzling phenomenon: rusting. Scientists have recently discovered that oxygen particles from Earth ...
