A new study suggests the extinction of Neanderthals nearly coincided with a shift in Earth's magnetic field that let more ...

Neutron star mergers are collisions between neutron stars, the collapsed cores of what were once massive supergiant stars.

Researchers are now trying to understand the "innermost inner core" of the Earth by studying how seismic waves travel through ...

During a brief but dramatic chapter in Earth's history about 41,000 years ago, the planet’s magnetic field nearly collapsed.

Most people have heard about quantum computers, but quantum sensors? I’ve just come across those as Bosch is developing magnetic-field quantum sensors harnessing “the power of quantum physics to ...

This restless movement of metal generates the planet’s magnetic field—a force invisible to the eye but deeply influential in everything from global navigation to shielding Earth from solar ...

These spectacular lights resemble those seen on Earth, where they're generated when energetic particles interact with our planet's magnetic field, but Jupiter's auroras are believed to proceed ...

NASA scientists are concerned about a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field, which can make life at the International Space Station difficult. The vast and evolving phenomenon is called the ...

NASA has been monitoring a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies above the planet, stretching out between South America and southwest ...
