Earth’s magnetic field has long been framed as a planetary force field, a protective bubble that keeps the worst of the Sun’s radiation at bay. Increasingly, though, scientists are finding that this ...
A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new research has presented experimental evidence confirming a previously theorized ...
Far above the South Atlantic, Earth’s magnetic shield is thinning into a vast, lopsided bruise that now sprawls across an ...
Earth's protective magnetic shield has a weak spot, the South Atlantic Anomaly, which is expanding and splitting. This anomaly, driven by changes in Earth's core, poses risks to satellites and ...
