A new study reports that researchers have successfully used a meticulously designed cylinder to harness electricity as it passed through Earth’s magnetic field.

Scientists have raised concerns that the Earth's inner core may completely halt its rotation by 2040, according to a recent paper published in Nature. The study suggests changes are occurring deep ...

More evidence is needed before anyone can conclude that the voltage truly results from Earth’s rotation, says Wijngaarden. Physicists could test whether the experiment gives different results at ...

That's how quickly Earth rotates on its axis, from West to East. And that rotation is largely responsible for the distribution of every desert, forest, and swamp on the planet. So, let's do a ...

While people go about their daily routines, the planet is in perpetual motion, rotating through its own magnetic field. A new ...

In their study, published in the journal Physical Review Research, Christopher Chyba, Kevin Hand and Thomas Chyba tested a theory that electricity could be generated from the Earth's rotation ...

the researchers found — which is in the same ballpark as the amount the Moon's pull slows the Earth's rotation over the same period. Subscribe to our daily newsletter to keep in touch with the ...

A controversial new study has claimed that it is possible to generate electricity using the Earth's rotation, its magnetic field, and a surprisingly simple device. If replicated, that could be ...

It takes 24 hours for the Earth to complete a full rotation:and when it does, half of the Earth is exposed to the light of the sun,and the other half is in shadow. Earth is tilted at a 23.5 degree ...
