The No. 1 threat to the U.S. Navy isn’t a foreign adversary. It’s corrosion. And many admirals say they’re losing the battle. What the Department of Defense spends dealing with corrosion each year ...

A new study published in Science Advances by lead author, Shuai Li, found that hematite – a form of rust – was discovered on the Moon. Rust is made up of iron, oxygen, and water – the latter two ...

Scientists have discovered traces of rust minerals on the Moon's surface. The Moon has iron, but no liquid water or oxygen, so rust shouldn't be possible. A new theory suggests that the Moon gets ...

This unusual discovery comes from the University of Hawaii at Manoa. What has been observed is the sign of iron reacting with oxygen and forming rouging. Yet how can this be happening if the Moon is ...

The Moon, long thought to be a barren and unchanging celestial body, is now showing a surprising and puzzling phenomenon: rusting. Scientists have recently discovered that oxygen particles from Earth ...

Atom-level simulations reveal the reason iron rusts in supposedly 'inert' supercritical carbon dioxide fluid. Trace amounts of water can cause a reaction at the interface between iron and the fluid, ...

Scientists have discovered that the Moon is rusting due to oxygen particles originating from Earth. These particles travel through space and interact with iron-rich minerals on the lunar surface, ...
