Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps ...

Chorus waves are mysterious, chirping signals produced by spiraling plasma inside our planet's magnetic field. But a new detection suggests scientists may understand less about them than first thought ...

A solar explosion called a coronal mass ejection is poised to graze Earth on Friday or Saturday (Jan. 24 or Jan. 25), potentially triggering colorful auroras over the northern U.S.

Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could ...

Scientists have captured faint magnetic signatures resulting from the tidal movement of seawater across the planet — and they might have to wait until 2030 to get another shot at it.

As sunspots emerge on the sun's surface close to its equator, their orientations will match the old magnetic field, while ...

Swarm satellites detect faint ocean magnetic signals, revealing magma distribution and climate change insights.

Scientists in Britain have been keeping an eye on where the Earth's magnetic north pole is. It's not fixed like the geographical North Pole; instead, it's like a wandering star. Recently, they found ...

NEW YORK — Scientists have detected cosmic waves that sound like birds chirping in an unexpected place. These bursts of plasma, called chorus waves, ripple at the same frequency as human hearing. When ...

A study using data from ESA's Swarm mission suggests that faint magnetic signatures created by Earth's tides can help us ...

Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.
