A new analysis of computer simulations of Earth’s magnetic field suggests that its behavior was different early in Earth’s history, resulting in greater stability and fewer reversals of the magnetic ...

I just got back from a trip to Japan. While there I met with several people involved in public policy in Tokyo, visited my professor who advised me for my PhD at Shinshu University in Nagano Japan (Dr ...

A tree-ringed African lake has yielded a record of Earth's magnetic field spanning the past 150,000 years. A core of rock and sediment drilled from the bottom of Lake Chala, a picturesque crater lake ...

The interplanetary collision that formed the moon might have more connections to Earth's ancient history than we ever imagined. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Earth is surrounded by an immense magnetic field, called the magnetosphere. Generated by powerful, dynamic forces at the center of our world, our magnetosphere shields us from erosion of our ...

The origins of magnetic steel can be traced back to the 18 th century when scientists began experimenting with iron alloys. In 1820, Hans Christian Oersted's accidental discovery of electromagnetism ...

Some say the use of magnetic therapy with natural magnets, or lodestones, goes back to 2000 BC when it was used by Aztec Indians and ancient Greeks, Egyptians and Chinese. Magnetic therapy apparently ...
