Scientists in the United States have created a small device that produces a tiny electrical signal from Earth’s natural rotation. Although the voltage is extremely small, the experiment shows that ...

Physicists at NASA and Princeton generate electricity from the Earth's rotation: could wind energy be our energy source of ...

Nearly 200 years ago, a scientist named Michael Faraday tried experimenting to see whether Earth's magnetic field could help ...

Reconnection, the merging of magnetic field lines of opposite polarity near the surface of the sun, Earth and some black holes, is believed to be the root cause of many spectacular astronomical events ...

Engineers at the University of Leicester have developed a new concept for a “magnetic cloaking device” that could shield ...

Pigeons may sense Earth’s magnetic field using their inner ear, sending signals to brain areas that help with navigation and ...

HANOVER, N.H. – April 28, 2022 – When magnetic field lines of opposite directions merge, they create explosions that can release massive amounts of energy. On the sun, the merging of opposing field ...

New research reveals how cryptochromes, magnetite, and electromagnetic induction help animals detect magnetic cues and find ...

Did Mars once have a full magnetic field in its ancient past like Earth does today, or was it lopsided and only covered one-half of the planet? This is what a recent study published in Geophysical ...
