Magnetic field data collected by ESA's Swarm satellites and other sources has been coverted into these frightening sounds.

Invisible yet vital, Earth’s magnetic field plays a crucial role in shielding the planet from harmful solar radiation and cosmic particles. Generated deep within the Earth’s molten outer core, this ...

Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects of viscosity in their simulation, they revealed a self-sustaining dynamo ...

Geophysicists from ETH Zurich and SUSTech, China, have demonstrated the dynamo effect of the Earth’s core in a model in which viscosity has no influence, as is the correct physical regime for the ...

While we have sent probes billions of kilometers into interstellar space, humans have barely scratched the surface of our own planet, not even making it through the thin crust. Roughly 3,000 ...
