Earth’s Core Is Changing Shape
A new study shows that the inner core changed shape in just a few decades, challenging previous assumptions and revealing hidden dynamics deep within Earth.
Earth’s inner core is not solid, it is 'shape-shifting' - time for textbooks to be rewritten
New study reveals that Earth's inner core is undergoing unexpected structural changes, challenging long-held assumptions about its solidity.
Earth’s Inner Core Is Changing Shape, Study Finds, Indicating Even More Dynamic Shifts Deep Within Our Planet
Seismic wave data previously suggested the Earth’s hot inner core is slowing its spin. Now, researchers say it’s also deforming around the edges
‘It’s almost science fiction’: Scientists say the shape of Earth’s inner core is changing
Researchers studying decades of earthquake data say they have found the first evidence that, in addition to spinning backward, Earth’s inner core in changing shape.
The Earth’s inner core is changing shape, study reveals
Scientists have discovered that the inner core's surface is changing shape, challenging previous assumptions about its solid nature
The surface of the Earth’s inner core may be changing
The Earth’s inner core is 3,000 miles below the surface and was thought to be a solid sphere held by gravity in the molten outer core. Recent studies show that the inner core’s rotation rate or shape can change over years or decades. This was found through variations in seismic waves from repeated earthquakes.
Scientists discover yet another change to Earth’s inner core: Its shape
Scientists found that the inner core’s structure changes as it rotates. It deforms at its border, potentially accumulating more material in some areas and less in others — almost like creating hills and valleys.
Scientists Detect Shape-Shifting Along Earth’s Solid Inner Core
The inner core at the center of the Earth, a ball of iron and nickel about 1,500 miles wide, may not be perfectly solid. A new study finds evidence that the inner core’s outer boundary has noticeably changed shape over the past few decades.
Earth’s Inner Core Is Changing Shape—Scientists Uncover a Deep Mystery at the Planet’s Center
The mysteries of Earth’s inner core have long been a topic of intrigue for scientists, with the planet’s central engine playing a key role in shaping our world. Recent research has unveiled an astonishing new discovery: the inner core is not only changing its rotation speed but is also undergoing subtle changes in its shape.

Miles Below Earth's Surface, A Diverse Array Of Underground Life Thrives
In the mid-1990s, scientists made a discovery that shook up the understanding of life on Earth: vast reservoirs of microbes can be found beneath the planet’s surface, often buried kilometers deep in ...
Review: ‘Synduality: Echo of Ada’ has intriguing concept but not enough content
The “Synduality: Echo of Ada” experience doesn’t really begin until you’ve lost everything. That’s what I learned after seeing hours worth of work explode in my face in an ambush. While scavenging the ...
