Crystalline grains found in space ice challenge assumptions about its structure
London, UK (SPX) Jul 08, 2025
Ice commonly found in space is not entirely amorphous, as long believed, but instead contains nanoscale crystals, according to a new study by scientists at University College London (UCL) and the University of Cambridge. The findings revise long-held views about low-density amorphous ice, which forms under extremely cold conditions in comets, icy moons, and interstellar dust clouds. The re
