Earth's magnetic field dramatically flipped a little more than 40,000 years ago. We can now experience this epic upheaval, ...
Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not ...
Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could pose problems for long-distance space travel ...
The magnetic north pole is distinct from the geographic North Pole, a fixed point where the Earth’s axis meets its surface. Instead, magnetic north is the changing location where the planet’s magnetic ...
Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.
Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps moving. Here’s what to know.
A stunning composite image, made up of three years' worth of satellite photos, shows the ancient lava of Libya's Haruj volcanic field interspersed with patches of golden sand.
Dancing turtles have proved for the first time that some animals use Earth's magnetic field to create a personal map of their ...
The risk of impact is likely to drop to zero as observations of Asteroid 2024 YR4 continue.
a fixed point where the Earth’s axis meets its surface. Instead, magnetic north is the changing location where the planet’s magnetic field lines converge. This field is generated by the ...
