How does the Earth generate its magnetic field? While the basic mechanisms seem to be understood, many details remain unresolved. A team of researchers from the Center for Advanced Systems ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests they ...

“We find that both exhibit strong linearly increasing trends, coupled with a large surge in magnitude between 330 and 220 ...

How does the Earth generate its magnetic field? While the basic mechanisms seem to be understood, many details remain unresolved. A team of researchers has introduced a simulation method that ...

Earth’s magnetic field has correlated with fluctuations in atmospheric oxygen, according to a newly released study.

Magnetic fields are everywhere in the universe. Of course, there's Earth's magnetic field, which deflects dangerous cosmic radiation, wiggles our compasses, and guides flocks of migrating birds ...

Bogong moths use stars and Earth’s magnetic field to navigate epic migrations - revealing the first known stellar compass in ...

New NASA research demonstrates that 540 million years of Earth’s magnetic field changes have corresponded to surface ...

A species of Australian moth travels up to a thousand kilometers every summer using the stars to navigate, scientists said ...

The Earth's magnetic field is essential for sustaining life, as it shields the planet from cosmic radiation and solar wind. It is generated by the geodynamo effect.
