An animation using data from the European Space Agency (ESA) allows you to "listen" to Earth's magnetic field being disrupted ...

Our planet’s gymnastics routine continues underneath our feet nearly every day, but researchers recently mapped what they say is one of the most “drastic events in the evolution of ...

Scientists recreate haunting sound of Earth's 'Laschamp Event' from more than 41,000 years ago.

Every so often, Earth's magnetic poles completely flip. What causes this to happen? And how do these reversals affect life on Earth?

Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.

During a brief but dramatic chapter in Earth's history about 41,000 years ago, the planet’s magnetic field nearly collapsed. What followed was a cascade of environmental and biological changes ...

About 41,000 years ago, Earth’s magnetic field briefly flipped in what is known as the Laschamp event. Now, a group of scientists using data from the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Swarm ...

If Earth's magnetic field flips, it could leave our planet exposed to more solar radiation. Here's what experts have to say about it.

A new video shows how Earth's magnetic field weakened and warped before temporarily flipping during a recent "polar reversal event." ...

This allowed Earth's magnetic poles to droop down near the equator and for its magnetic field lines to expand. This would have also allowed aurora to be seen all over Europe and into northern Africa.

Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps moving. Here’s what to know.

During a brief but dramatic chapter in Earth's history about 41,000 years ago, the planet’s magnetic field nearly collapsed. What followed was a cascade of environmental and biological changes ...
