By simulating the movement of two continent-sized Big Lower-Mantle Basal Structures, or BLOBs, researchers may have uncovered ...

Pillars of hot rock appear to connect continental-size moving blobs at the bottom of Earth's mantle to giant volcanic eruptions at its surface.

The origins in question, researchers believe, could be the BLOBS found deep within the Earth. These mysterious structures ...

Large-scale volcanic eruptions have severe impacts. One such event contributed to the extinction of dinosaurs, in addition to the asteroid that struck Earth 66 million years ago. These phenomena ...

The results show that these BLOBS are indeed moving, albeit very slowly over millions of years, leading to massive eruptions. "Researching the relationships between volcanic eruptions at the surface ...

New research suggests that mysterious blobs deep within Earth could be the driving force behind deadly volcanic eruptions.

Scientists who studied them call the blobs Large Low-Shear-Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs). They are each the size of a continent and 100 times taller than Mt. Everest, but they're not exactly the same.

A frenzy of airdrop claims for a new Ethereum layer-2 network called Scroll briefly drove up the cost of blob fees as high as $4.52, marking the third time blobs have become costly since Ethereum ...

Blackworm blobs “are more like spaghetti noodles dropped on the floor,” she said, frowning, in a Zoom call. “C. elegans is named for being elegant. These ones are just … not.” ...

Over 2,000 blobs have been posted on Ethereum’s Beacon Chain, with Starknet accounting for 74% of all blobs submitted since the Dencun upgrade was rolled out on the Ethereum mainnet on March 13.
