A perfectly preserved ancient tree fossil offered scientists an unprecedented view into a moment 42,000 years ago when the ...

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 ...

Earth's magnetic field dramatically flipped a little more than 40,000 years ago. We can now experience this epic upheaval, ...

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.

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

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 ...

the magnetic north pole’s position is determined by Earth’s magnetic field, which is in constant motion. Over the past few decades, magnetic north’s movement has been unprecedented — it ...

Earth's magnetic field results from a swirling sea of electrically charged molten iron in the planet's outer core. Heat currents and Earth's spin both fuel the movement of this liquid iron.
