NASA has been monitoring a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies ...

According to scientists, this ambipolar electric field is thought to be just as crucial to Earth as both gravity and ...

Tiny magnetic "flowers" engineered by physicist Anna Palau are redefining how we manipulate magnetic fields. These ...

Scientists successfully generate electricity from Earth's rotation in groundbreaking experiment, potentially opening a new frontier in renewable energy technology.

It looked still to you before because you were moving with it. We have this same problem with electric and magnetic fields. Depending on your reference frame, what appears to be a magnetic force ...

Continent-sized structures of mineral protruding from the lower mantle towards Earth's outer core may be contributing to an instability of our planet's magnetic field. The two odd formations – one ...

The moving metals in Earth's core create the planet's magnetic field. Our planet sits in a small corner of the Milky Way galaxy, 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's center. Our solar system lives ...

NASA will be able to compare lots of data gathered on Earth with EZIE's observations. "EZIE scientists will be collecting magnetic field data from above, and the students will be collecting ...

Recently, I returned to the Pacific coast of Costa Rica for another international expedition, this time with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) Ocean Ecology Laboratory’s Field Support ... new ...

This, in turn, affects convection in the outer core—the dynamo-like process that generates the magnetic field that protects life on Earth from harmful cosmic rays. "Flow in the outer core drives ...
