Research, led by The University of Alabama, has revealed a dense layer of ancient ocean floor, or an ultra-low velocity zone (ULVZ), near Earth’s core, according to a new study. While Earth’s ...
The inner core is made of solid iron-nickel about 3,000 miles below the surface of the Earth. Scientists believe that the inner core’s rotation began to slow down in 2010 , but what that really ...
By tracking seismic waves from earthquakes that have passed through the Earth’s inner core along similar paths since 1964, the authors of the 2023 study found that the spin followed a 70-year cycle.
EARTH’S inner core is rotating more slowly and has changed direction, experts have confirmed. The inner core is a solid iron-nickel sphere around the size of the Moon. It floats 3,000 miles b… ...

Earth's core is the hottest part of the planet, equivalent to that of the Sun's surface. The core is buried around 5,180 kilometres deep inside the Earth and consists mainly of iron and nickel.
Located 3,000 miles below the Earth’s surface, the inner core is anchored by gravity within the molten liquid outer core. It's believed to play an important role in maintaining the planet’s ...

Earth appears to be a chill blue planet, but deep down, it’s really a metalhead. Its outer core is mostly molten iron (and some nickel), while its inner core is a ‘solid’ iron orb (with ...
Scientists say they’ve confirmed Earth’s inner core has been slowing down. Here’s what it could mean — and why the topic has been the subject of fierce debate.
