Astronomers have detected ordered magnetic fields in galaxies so young that conventional models struggle to explain how those fields formed so fast. Observations from the Atacama Large ...

How fast can a galaxy build ordered magnetic fields spanning thousands of light-years? Existing theories say several billion ...

Magnetic signatures hidden inside rocks tell us a lot about Earth's magnetic field and the way continents and tectonic plates have shifted across millennia – but for some periods, the geological ...

All this is going on many miles below our feet.

A team of scientists from the University of Liverpool have found two strange anomalies that have affected the Earth's ...

Researchers have identified a potential mechanism that explains how turbulent plasma can produce the vast, ordered magnetic fields observed across the universe Cosmic magnetic fields are everywhere, ...

New observations are helping scientists peer beneath the Sun’s surface, revealing where its magnetic activity may truly begin. Every 11 years, the Sun’s magnetic field reverses. As that cycle unfolds, ...

More than a decade of satellite monitoring has mapped Earth’s magnetic field as it subtly altered between 2014 and 2025 — and what scientists have learned is remarkable. The South Atlantic Anomaly, a ...

Physicists weren’t sure why Moon rocks brought back during the Apollo missions are more strongly magnetized than models predict ...

New observations from the National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory's (NSF NRAO) Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (NSF VLA) provide compelling evidence supporting a universal ...

External sources, such as the early solar wind or Earth’s magnetic field, were too weak or faded too early. Internal sources like a magma ocean or mantle-core precession might have helped, but ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Over 11 years of satellite data reveal that Earth’s magnetic field is reshaping. (CREDIT: Shutterstock) More than a decade of ...
