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

Magnetic field data collected by ESA's Swarm satellites and other sources has been coverted into these frightening sounds. The "audio represents the magnetic field generated by Earth's core and a ...

This week, see what makes loggerhead sea turtles “dance,” track a cosmic “ghost particle,” uncover an ancient basilica, and more.

Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not sound waves. When converted to audio signals, though, these strange ...

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.

In mid-December of 2024, scientists officially updated the World Magnetic Model (WMM), which helps keep track of our planet’s magnetic north and its chaotic and relatively unpredictable movements.

But never fear — this shape-shifting won’t directly affect life on Earth. Over time, changes to this innermost layer could impact the planet’s magnetic field, which shields our world from ...

the magnetic north pole of the planet is decided by Earth's magnetic field, which is constantly moving and never static. Scientists noted that over the past few years, the movement of the magnetic ...

It is a point on the Earth's surface where the planet's magnetic field lines converge vertically. The geographic North Pole is the northernmost point on Earth, but this is not so with the magnetic ...

CHARLOTTE, N.C.– We now know that Earth’s magnetic field is triggering a superpower in sea turtles. Loggerhead sea turtles have the ability to find nesting and feeding areas without landmarks. A new ...
