For nearly two centuries, scientists have wondered if Earth’s rotation through its magnetic field could produce electricity.
Spectacular displays of the Northern Lights have been seen over recent nights with the potential for more to come.
American researchers have measured a tiny electrical voltage by exploiting Earth's magnetic field in the planet's rotational motion. This discovery, though modest, revives a scientific debate ...
The Northern Lights could be visible as far south as New York and Idaho tonight due to a "coronal hole" sending streams of ...
Brookhaven National Laboratory have discovered a new phase of matter while studying a model system of a magnetic material.
In theory, as Earth spins through its magnetic field, any conductive material placed on its surface should experience a force ...
A trio of physicists from Princeton University, CIT's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Spectral Sensor Solutions, all in the U.S ...
The effect known as 'Russell-McPherron' is down to the alignment of the Sun and Earth around the spring and autumn equinox ...
