NASA is observing an anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies above the ...

For years, NASA has been studying a growing anomaly in Earth’s magnetic field that scientists liken to a “dent” or “pothole in space.” It is a giant region of lower magnetic intensity ...

When these orbiters pass through the anomaly, it can cause satellites and spacecraft to experience short-circuits and malfunctions. That's because the reduced strength of Earth's magnetic field ...

Scientists have captured faint magnetic signatures resulting from the tidal movement of seawater across the planet — and they might have to wait until 2030 to get another shot at it.

A fairly well-known phenomenon called South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) refers to the unusually weak magnetic field over South America and the southern Atlantic Ocean. And scientists acknowledge that ...

As sunspots emerge on the sun's surface close to its equator, their orientations will match the old magnetic field, while ...

When some of the biggest stars reach the end of their lives, they explode in spectacular supernovas and leave behind ...

A team of physicists led by The City College of New York's Lia Krusin-Elbaum has developed a novel technique that uses ...
