Far below the reach of sunlight, in water cold enough to freeze most life in its tracks, scientists have found oxygen being ...
Oxygen fills the air today, but for most of Earth’s early history it barely existed. Scientists say the atmosphere did not hold steady oxygen until about 2.
Oxygen is everywhere on Earth today. But that hasn’t always been the case. Scientists think oxygen only became a lasting part ...
An MIT study suggests some early life forms may have evolved the ability to use oxygen hundreds of millions of years before ...
Scientists have launched a fresh effort to find out what could be producing oxygen at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

A new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience found evidence of oxygen production near polymetallic nodules located deep in the ocean. Called dark oxygen, this oxygen is being produced ...
Scientists have discovered oxygen is being produced extremely deep below the ocean's surface, changing how we think about life at the bottom of the sea. Researchers discovered the presence of strange ...
Oxygen has been historically linked to sunlight. But a new study has suggested that oxygen may also be produced without any sunlight at all. Scientists at the University of Southern Denmark recently ...
A mysterious phenomenon first observed in 2013 aboard a vessel in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean appeared so preposterous, it convinced ocean scientist Andrew Sweetman that his monitoring ...
An international team of researchers has devised a plasma-based approach to producing oxygen on Mars to support exploration. Oxygen is vital: it breathable environments, life support, producing fuels ...
