Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could pose problems for long-distance space travel ...

is about 1,200 miles south and is where geomagnetic field lines are vertical. Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on ...

Geophysicists have long speculated that the weakening of the magnetic field could signal a potential geomagnetic reversal, in which the planet’s north and south magnetic poles swap places.

Scientists have detected something strange in Earth’s magnetosphere, some 100,000 miles away from the ground. Split-second ...

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.

The magnetic field is shown by lines with arrows that point from north to south. You can tell how old some coins are by testing them with a magnet. 5p and 10p coins made before January 2012 are ...

Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly ... Some speculate that this could presage a flip of the north and south magnetic poles, but scientists say there ...
