In February, a small aircraft flew 300 miles through the skies, guided only by Earth’s magnetic field. How so? Onboard was a ...

A quantum sensor using Earth's magnetic fields outperformed standard GPS backups in test flights. This technology could help ...

This is because the Earth’s magnetic field runs almost parallel to the surface ... This minimised electromagnetic ...

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 ...

The Earth's magnetic field isn't perfectly uniform ... In the past, this has required aircraft to perform complex "cloverleaf" maneuvers to calibrate the sensors. Muradoğlu and co tackled these ...
