The BBC's groundbreaking nature documentary series Planet Earth turns 20 this year, marking two decades of bringing never-before-seen wildlife moments into our homes. The network just released an hour-long compilation celebrating iconic scenes that changed how we see our world.
The planet constantly sings below human hearing, rumbling with glaciers, wildfires, and storms. Now an artist has transformed 24 hours of Earth's secret soundtrack into music we can finally hear.
The groundbreaking nature documentary series Planet Earth is marking its 20th anniversary with a celebration of the most breathtaking wildlife moments ever filmed. Among the highlights: the extraordinary courtship dance of New Guinea's birds of paradise.
Scientists discovered Earth's core contains enough hydrogen to equal 45 oceans of water, suggesting our planet formed with water already inside rather than getting it from comets. This breakthrough helps solve the mystery of where Earth's water really came from.
Scientists discovered that a nearby exoplanet in the habitable zone is more Earth-like than they thought. The planet, twice Earth's mass instead of five times, is now a top candidate for potentially supporting life.
Scientists discovered two massive zones of superheated rock deep inside Earth that help control our planet's protective magnetic shield. This breakthrough explains mysteries about how Earth stays geologically active and magnetically protected.
Scientists discovered Earth's core may contain up to 45 oceans' worth of hydrogen, making it the planet's largest water reservoir. This finding rewrites our understanding of how Earth got its water during the earliest days of planetary formation.
For billions of years, Earth has been speaking in sounds we couldn't hear. Now affordable sensors and AI are revealing the planet's invisible voice.
Citizen scientists listening to Earth's magnetic field translated into sound discovered an unexpected pattern in plasma waves that could help predict geomagnetic storms. One volunteer loved it so much they're switching their major to physics.
Japan just made a breakthrough that could end its dependence on imported rare earth minerals. The nation successfully collected rare earth mud from 6,000 meters below the Pacific Ocean near a remote island.
Scientists discovered Earth's core contains vastly more hydrogen than all the oceans combined, solving a 4.5-billion-year mystery. This breakthrough reveals our planet has been hiding its biggest hydrogen reservoir right at its center all along.
Scientists say our planet has a better shot at surviving the sun's fiery death than we thought. New calculations suggest Earth could drift to safety as the dying sun loses mass.
For the first time, researchers can now detect magnetic fields on the far side of the sun without seeing it, potentially giving Earth earlier warnings about dangerous solar storms. By listening to sound waves traveling through the star, they've unlocked crucial information that was previously invisible.
NASA just released sonifications that transform telescope data from Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus into music, making this month's rare planetary alignment accessible to everyone. The sounds reveal X-ray and infrared data that human eyes can't see from Earth.
New climate modeling reveals that complex life on Earth will survive far longer than scientists previously thought. Researchers found that even as our Sun brightens, plants and other life forms have at least 1.3 billion years before conditions become uninhabitable.
For decades, scientists believed comets or asteroids delivered Earth's water. Now breakthrough research suggests our planet may have made its own oceans from scratch.
From the International Space Station, astronaut Chris Williams photographed our galaxy rising above a stunning natural light show created by Earth's own atmosphere. The rare shot shows airglow, a phenomenon where sunlight energizes atoms to create a soft, continuous glow around our planet.
A Western Australian mining company just cracked a major code in rare earth processing, shrinking materials by 95% while keeping the valuable minerals intact. This breakthrough could make extracting the materials inside your phone and electric car much cheaper and more efficient.
Researchers have designed a satellite system that could protect Earth from catastrophic solar superstorms by creating a giant plasma wall in space. The six-satellite constellation, called StormWall, could cut a superstorm's intensity by more than half and is "quite feasible" according to experts.
Oscar-winning sound designers turned to nature's music to craft the alien language in blockbuster "Project Hail Mary." Their creative blend of whale songs and bird calls brought beloved alien character Rocky to life.
