Nearly two centuries after Faraday's failed attempts, scientists have demonstrated that Earth's continuous spin can directly ...

S cientists have found that it’s possible to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation through its own magnetic field ...

Likewise, a wire passing through a magnetic field creates an electric current within the wire. This is the basic principle that allows electric motors and generators to operate. In the Earth (see ...

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

A controversial device that most scientists said was impossible has successfully generated electricity from the Earth's ...

We have this same problem with electric and magnetic fields. Depending on your reference ... on the motion of the observer—“it’s all relative.” If you measure the speed of a train from ...

At a cost not far above £10 ($13.70), this was an impulse purchase driven by curiosity; these devices claim to measure both magnetic and electric fields, but what do they really measure?
