As early as 2024, scientists from the US and China discovered that the Earth’s core had slowed down and even stopped moving ...

In 2024, researchers transformed readings of an epic upheaval of Earth's magnetic field flipping 41,000 years ago into an eerie, auditory experience. Now a team containing some of those same ...

Eventually, the blob of molten material beneath Canada split in two and the stronger one slowly shifted toward the blob ...

New simulations show carbon enabled Earth’s inner core to solidify under realistic cooling, solving the nucleation paradox.

New research suggests that the largest magnetic fields in the universe originated through some exotic mechanism that absolutely soaked the early cosmos.

Earth’s oxygenated atmosphere and magnetic field make life possible, but scientists have discovered that there’s a hidden link between the two that’s stronger than we originally imagined.

Van Allen radiation hinders and complicates spaceflight, magnetic instruments, and more.

Environmental scientists said there's a good chance the Earth's magnetic field is in the process of flipping, which could mean compasses that point to the north will switch to the south.

The updated version of the World Magnetic Model was released on Dec. 17, with a new prediction of how the magnetic north pole will shift over the next five years. Here's why it was changed.
