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

Creatures from migratory eels and other fish species to insects to birds tap into the Earth’s magnetic field to navigate, sometimes many thousands of miles. But so far, evidence has been scant for any ...

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 the ...

"This is the first solid evidence that helical magnetic fields can explain astrophysical jets at different scales." ...

The reversal could actually have a beneficial effect on Earth. The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. The sun undergoes such a reversal every 11 years ...

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 ...

An international team of scientists has modeled the formation and evolution of the strongest magnetic fields in the universe.

“The current behaviour of magnetic north is something that we have never observed before,” William Brown, a global geomagnetic field modeler at the British Geological Survey, said in a statemen ...

Scientists have unlocked a previously unseen behavior of acoustic waves, opening up new possibilities for cutting-edge ...
