New research has shown that the Earth’s crust of a global period, 000,000 years ago, has the opposite effect on the Earth’s magnetic field. According to radiocarbons preserved in ancient tree rings, valuable climate breakdowns, mass extinctions, and changes in human behavior over the centuries can also be directly linked …

Probably the most well-known result of the Earth’s magnetic field is the Aurora Boralis and Austral Australia (Northern and Southern Lights). When charged particles from the solar wind run into the Earth’s magnetic field, they can occasionally emit spectacular light displays. For many years, scientists have thought that the charged …

For decades, scientists have wrestled with a complex mystery of physics: can a huge amount of energy, theoretically generated by turning a black hole, ever be applied by a human hand? If the societies of the future were somehow able to contain this magnificent feat, the power supply of distant …

It would be an ugly experience to see our world through the eyes of a migratory bird. Something about their visual system allows them to ‘see’ our planet’s magnetic field, a clever trick of quantum physics and biochemistry that helps them find vast distances. Now, for the first time, scientists …

In our endless quest to understand the universe and our place within it, precious little blips in the data can signal a whole new world. The light of the star could betray the presence of filled planets in the layer – and now astronomers have taken the first steps towards …
