Winds from the storm buffeting NSW could hit the intensity of a category two tropical cyclone offshore, one expert said.

From the Manchester to the B-32, these Allied heavy bombers showcase air power's rapid evolution of purpose, design, and ...

Around 4 billion years ago, Earth went through a tumultuous period known as the “late heavy bombardment,” when severe comet and asteroid impacts made the planet too hot to support the existence of ...

The earliest known fossils of single-celled organisms date from around the time the crater was formed, the Archaean era, which overlapped with the end of the Late Heavy Bombardment.

It may be hard to imagine complicated life forms on early Earth. Oxygen was low and asteroids may have been pelting the baby planet’s surface. Despite those harsh conditions, a microbe may have ...

During the Late Heavy Bombardment, a period between 4.1 and 3.8 billion years ago when more impact events hammered our planet, Earth’s surface was partially solid.

When it comes to space rocks slamming into Earth, two stand out. There’s the one that killed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago (goodbye T-rex, hello mammals!) and the one that formed Earth’s Moon.

Each panel shows the modeled effects of early Earth’s bombardment. Circles show the regions affected by each impact, with diameters corresponding to the final size of craters for impactors ...

Scientists think untold numbers of asteroids and comets pummeled Earth, the moon and the inner planets during an era known as the Late Heavy Bombardment about 4.1 billion to 3.8 billion years ago ...
