The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

Lunar rocks are famously dry. They contain almost none of the volatile elements that easily escape into space, such as ...

Florida State University researchers have created a new crystalline material with unusual magnetic patterns that could be ...

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

The sun’s surface is a brilliant display of sunspots and flares driven by the solar magnetic field, which is internally generated through a process called dynamo action. Astrophysicists have assumed ...

Thanks to new calculations by a Dartmouth geochemist, scientists are now looking at the earth’s climate history in a new light. Mukul Sharma, Assistant Professor of Earth Sciences at Dartmouth, ...

The Sun’s outflow is supposed to be a one-way trip, with charged particles streaming steadily into interplanetary space. Now ...

Surprise findings suggest sunspots and solar flares could be generated by a magnetic field within the Sun's outermost layers. If confirmed, the findings could help scientists better predict space ...
