Indeed, could one kink in Earth’s magnetic field rewrite how scientists understand space weather? The recent detection of a ...

We’ve probably all had a few conversations with people who hold eccentric scientific ideas, and most of the time they yield nothing more than frustration and perhaps a headache. In [Bertrand ...

A new study of the red dwarf system TOI-3884 has uncovered rare, persistent spot-crossing signals that reveal unusually detailed information about the star’s magnetic activity and the planet’s orbital ...

Reversing Earth’s rotation would cause immediate catastrophic waves and winds, while long-term climate patterns would shift, ...

I/ATLAS will soon make its closes flyby to Earth. When this happens, Avi Loeb said that all questions could be answered.

Northern Lights may dazzle again tonight as a severe geomagnetic storm reaches peak intensity across regions. Follow live.

If the atmosphere were not dragged with our planet, you could utilize the insane relative wind speeds to decrease flight time, but you'd probably not be concerned with such problems as "long flights" ...

When we talk about feats of engineering, very few megastructures on Earth rival the sheer scale of China's Three Gorges Dam. It's located in Hubei province, spanning the mighty Yangtze River, and it's ...

As early as 2024, scientists from the US and China discovered that the Earth’s core had slowed down and even stopped moving in relation to the Earth’s crust. But until now, the general public—that’s ...

Earth's rotation is randomly speeding up, and nobody is quite sure why. These speedups, which have occurred several times over the last few years, haven't had any effect on daily life, but they also ...

James O'Donoghue receives funding from the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). Earth will complete a rotation 1.33 milliseconds earlier than usual on Tuesday, August 5. That makes it ...
