As for the possibility of uncovering more fossils beneath the parking lot, Hagadorn noted the practical limitations. "I would love to dig a 763-foot (233-meter) hole in the parking lot to excavate ...

The well reached a bottomhole temperature of 520° F as the operator significantly reduced ultradeep geothermal time. The ...

The development in Manor taps into the natural heat deep underground to run heating and cooling systems for the planned 7,500 ...

Demand for low-carbon nuclear energy could boost uranium prospects on Alaska’s Seward Peninsula. But residents of the small ...

If the U.S. could tap into just 2 percent of the geothermal power beneath Earth’s crust, it could supply more than 2,000 times our total annual energy consumption.

This superheated water could potentially enable geothermal systems to extract 10 times more energy from deep, hot rock formations. However, GA Drilling is starting at more moderate depths.

By studying seismic waves, researchers have found a layer deep beneath the surface of Mars that could contain enough liquid water to flood the planet with an ocean thousands of feet deep.

Of course, drilling kilometres deep on a distant planet is a daunting challenge. However, our data, collected near Mars’ equator, also hints at the possibility of other water-rich zones – such ...

Paul Hanson (left), a UNL geology professor, and Erik J. Waiss, a state environmental specialist, take a closer look at a core sample dug from deep underground at Glacial Till Vineyard and Winery ...

Except, that is, in Bourakebougou, a small town in southwestern Mali. There, almost 40 years ago, engineers drilling for water tapped instead into a natural underground reservoir of hydrogen gas.

Deep in Alaska’s Katmai National Park, a perfectly round, 1,600-foot-wide crater has puzzled scientists for decades. Known as Savonoski Crater, this enormous hole appears as though it was carved into ...
