Plastic pollution is not just in oceans and soil. Scientists have now found enormous amounts of microscopic plastic floating ...

Aerosols refer to fine solid or liquid particles suspended in the atmosphere, where they reside typically for days to weeks before falling to the ground or being washed out by rain or snow. They arise ...

You can't see, feel, hear, taste or smell them, but tiny particles from space are constantly raining down on us.

ISS microgravity experiments reveal how particles cluster, helping science on Earth and future space missions.

ISRO’s Cosmic Dust Experiment detects interplanetary particles in orbit, revealing hidden cosmic traffic, advancing India’s ...
