This mineral keeps turning up on Mars — and now it's also been found in Antarctica
ZME Science
The brittle, tawny-hued mineral is rare on Earth but surprisingly abundant on Mars. Geologists have now discovered it under Antarctic ice, suggesting that the mineral is formed when dust gets trapped under ice deposits. In other words, glaciers not only existed on Mars, but they contributed to the planet's geological makeup.

Geophysical research: The Earth's non-linear properties
Open Access Government
Successful integration between the mechanics of deformable solid bodies and Earth Sciences resulted in a new theory of non-classical tectonophysics. By moving from the idea of linearity of elastic waves and deformations of solid media to the concept of nonlinearity, an approach is proposed for an adequate determination of the tectonophysical parameters of the geodynamically evolving Earth.

The missing continent it took 375 years to find
BBC News
It was 1642 and Abel Tasman was on a mission. The experienced Dutch sailor, who sported a flamboyant moustache, bushy goatee and penchant for rough justice — he later tried to hang some of his crew on a drunken whim — was confident of the existence of a vast continent in the southern hemisphere, and determined to find it.
