In a nutshell Scientists discovered sea turtles can learn and remember specific magnetic field signatures of geographic ...

It took 250 years for the Laschamps reversal to take place and it stayed in the unusual orientation for about 440 years. At most, Earth's magnetic field may have remained at 25 percent of its current ...

Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not ...

A perfectly preserved ancient tree fossil offered scientists an unprecedented view into a moment 42,000 years ago when the Earth’s magnetic field went haywire. The compelling 2021 study tells the ...

Magnetic field data collected by ESA's Swarm satellites and other sources has been coverted into these frightening sounds.

Geomagnetic storms also cause problems on Earth. The electric currents they create can overload power plants and cause ...

Data collected from a once-defunct NASA satellite show that Earth grew two extra radiation belts following a supercharged ...

There are trillions of charged particles—protons and electrons, the basic building blocks of matter—whizzing around above ...

Chorus waves, quick bursts of energy known to occur relatively close to Earth and around other planets, were found in an ...

A NASA satellite that suddenly reappeared after going silent gets credit for the remarkable discovery—a pair of temporary ...

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.
