For a while, core and the Earth's rotation matched. Later, the rotation speed of the Earth's core reduced even more until it started moving in reverse direction.

The rotation of the Earth's inner core may be reversing, scientists have found in a study that sheds new light on geological processes occurring deep within our planet.

Inside of the Earth, the inner core is also spinning in the same direction, but that spin might slow down or speed up every once in a while. If it slows down to slower than the Earth’s rotation ...

NPR's Ayesha Rascoe talks to John Vidale, professor of earth sciences at the University of Southern California, about new research suggesting the rotation of Earth's inner core may be slowing down.

Now, the direction of the inner core’s rotation may be reversing — part of what could be a roughly 70-year-long cycle that may influence the length of Earth’s days and its magnetic field ...

Could the Earth's rotation really be changing direction? (photo credit: PEXELS) By JERUSALEM POST STAFF JANUARY 24, 2023 04:54 Updated: JANUARY 24, 2023 08:39.

It originally referred to the rotation of the Earth’s inner core pausing and said it could have started to spin in the opposite direction, but this was inaccurate.

In 2009-2010, the rotation of the Earth's inner core completely stopped. After such events, the inner core is expected to resume rotation, presumably in the same direction as the Earth itself.
