Earth’s magnetic field has been acting restless, with the north magnetic pole racing across the Arctic and the field itself weakening in some regions. Those shifts have fueled viral claims that a ...
Recent shifts in Earth's magnetic field have human fingerprints all over them. While it is normal for our planet's magnetic poles to sporadically wander, new research shows we've now amassed enough ...
The Earth’s magnetic field plays a big role in protecting people from hazardous radiation and geomagnetic activity that could affect satellite communication and the operation of power grids. And it ...
More than a decade of satellite monitoring has mapped Earth’s magnetic field as it subtly altered between 2014 and 2025 — and what scientists have learned is remarkable. The South Atlantic Anomaly, a ...
Ancient Homo sapiens may have benefited from sunscreen, tailored clothes and the use of caves during the shifting of the magnetic North Pole over Europe about 41,000 years ago, new University of ...
From Earth’s oldest rocks to glowing swamp lights and hidden ocean life, scientists in 2025 uncovered clues beneath our feet ...
