In mid-December of 2024, scientists officially updated the World Magnetic Model (WMM), which helps keep track of our planet’s ...

New research suggests that Earth's inner core may not be as solid as previously believed. Scientists studying seismic waveforms have discovered structural changes in the core, which challenge ...

Unlike the geographic North Pole, which marks a fixed location, the magnetic north pole’s position is determined by Earth’s magnetic field, which is in constant motion. Over the past few ...

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. The compelling 2021 study tells ...

Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could pose problems for long-distance space travel ...

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 ...

Sea turtles navigate using Earth's magnetic field like a GPS. Scientists found they learn and remember magnetic locations.

A new study has accurately estimated the physical parameters of thermal and magnetic field structures of solar coronal holes which have significant influence on space weather that affects satellites, ...

Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.

Astronomers from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), an autonomous institute of the Department of Science and Techno ...

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 solar ...
