If your compass features an adjustable declination, start by finding your declination value, the deviation between magnetic ...

The AZCON Holding's ASCO tanker Khojavend was put back into service following a major overhaul, Trend reports. As part of the ...

"It's as if you throw a 52-card deck in the air, in a magnetic field, and each card has a compass needle," says study co-author and planetary scientist Benjamin Weiss at MIT. "When the cards settle ...

Some lunar rocks have left scientists puzzled for decades. Despite the Moon having no global magnetic field today, samples collected during NASA’s Apollo missions and data from orbiting spacecraft ...

Weiss has likened the effect to tossing a deck of 52 playing cards into the air within a magnetic field. If each card had its own compass needle, its magnetism would be in a new orientation once ...

"It's as if you throw a 52-card deck in the air, in a magnetic field, and each card has a compass needle," Weiss says. "When the cards settle back to the ground, they do so in a new orientation.

Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.

The result that magnetic-field detection might have evolved separately for the map and compass senses bolsters growing evidence for dual magnetoreception systems in other vertebrates 1, 3.
