Percolating Clues: NASA Models New Way to Build Planetary Cores
Percolating Clues: NASA Models New Way to Build Planetary Cores NASA has discovered a new way planetary cores may have formed, challenging the long-held belief that large-scale melting was necessary for core formation. The study suggests that molten sulfide could percolate through solid rock and form a core, even before a planet’s silicate mantle begins […]
