Studies suggest that under high enough pressures methane can form into diamond.
Although such conditions do not occur on Earth, the theory has been tested under artificial conditions and found to be true.
If this occurs on Neptune and Uranus, which have strong pressures and large amounts of free methane, then it would cause diamonds to rain down through the atmosphere towards their cores.
This would also account for unusual heat signatures emitted by these planets.

An Ocean in the Sky

Clouds tend to be relatively flat or slightly curved on the bottom.
Well, asperatus clouds aren’t like most clouds.
Also known as undulatus asperatus clouds, which translates roughly to turbulent waves,
these hovering masses of water particles oftentimes seem to reach down towards the ground with dramatic and seemingly artistic waves and curls.

Recently named in 2009 for their wavy undersides, asperatus clouds are mysterious by nature.
Since they are seen so rarely, that their origins remain somewhat of an unknown and they are the first new clouds to be named since 1951.

Ancient Water

Pockets of water discovered deep in a Canadian mine may be 1.5 - 2.5 billion years old.
Researchers from the universities of Manchester and Toronto have collected samples of water trapped in bedrock in a Timmins, Ontario copper and zinc mine, about 350 miles north of Toronto.
The water was trapped in the rock at a depth of 2.4 kilometers.
The rocks in and around the mine were created from a large hydrothermal vent system on an ancient sea floor around 2.7 billion years ago.

The research team is next studying the water to determine if any microbes are present.
The water has been far removed from any light source, but it is rich in hydrogen and methane, which could sustain some particular micro-organisms.
