The long-pondered mysterious depression spot in the Indian Ocean that experiences less gravity than the rest of the planet is likely due to large plumes of magma under the Earth’s crust, scientists ...

And in one of the most remote corners of the planet, beneath Antarctica, gravity is at its weakest. In a new study published ...

Silicic calderas form during explosive volcanic eruptions when magma withdrawal triggers collapse along bounding faults. The nature of specific interactions between magmatism and tectonism in ...

Astronauts can lose as much as 10% of bone density during six months in space, according to NASA, because there's no gravity for their body to push against. To offset the effect, they exercise for two ...
