Earth’s inner core solidified sometime after 565 million years ago — just in time to not only save the planet’s protective magnetic field from imminent collapse, but also to kick-start it into its ...

Scientists discovered a mysterious reversal in Earth’s molten core flow beneath the Pacific using satellite data from space.

A river of molten iron, more than 2,000 kilometers below the surface, appears to have pulled off something Earth scientists ...

"The large-scale flow reversal beneath the Pacific raises new questions about the behavior of Earth's deep interior," ...

Deep beneath the Pacific near the equator, Earth’s outer core now flows east instead of west. Dynamics deeper within our planet’s core may help explain the change and what to expect in the near future ...

The liquid iron in Earth's outer core doesn't always behave as expected. When it changed direction in an unexplained way, ESA ...
