cannot be correct." The device could theoretically work by having the generator pass through the Earth's magnetic field, parts of which remain static, producing a current. However, as the journal ...

In theory, as Earth spins through its magnetic field, any conductive material placed on its surface should experience a force ...

A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new ...

A new study reports that researchers have successfully used a meticulously designed cylinder to harness electricity as it ...

Experiments suggest an unusual magnetic material could help harness energy from Earth’s rotation. But not everyone is ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...

Contrary to previous assumptions, the Moon's passage through Earth's magnetic field, or "geotail," does not lead to lower plasma densities. Listen to Story Scientists from the Space Physics Laboratory ...

The field, generated in Earth's core is a window to the deep interior of Earth and may have played a key role in evolution of life on our planet. Materials on Earth's surface that contain magnetic ...

The moving metals in Earth's core create the planet's magnetic field. Our planet sits in a small corner of the Milky Way galaxy, 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's center. Our solar system lives ...

Recently, I returned to the Pacific coast of Costa Rica for another international expedition, this time with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) Ocean Ecology Laboratory’s Field Support ... new ...

means that they affect how heat is extracted from the Earth's core. This impacts convection in the outer core -- a process that drives the magnetic field and protects us at the surface from ...
