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 ...

Earth's magnetic field is crucial to keep its inhabitants safe and protected from harmful solar radiation. However, the ...

NASA has been monitoring a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies above the planet, stretching out between South America and southwest ...

A severe G4 geomagnetic storm on January 19, 2026 enabled widespread aurora visibility across multiple continents following the arrival of a fast coronal mass ejection.

An unusual reduction in the strength of the Earth’s magnetic field between 591 and 565 million years ago coincided with a significant increase in the oxygen levels in the atmosphere and oceans, ...

Over 40,000 years ago, Earth’s magnetic field underwent a full reversal, a rare phenomenon in which the North and South ...

Artifacts from the Iron Age have revealed an intense historical magnetic anomaly in the Middle East. Could using a similar approach elsewhere help us unravel the mysteries of Earth's magnetic field?

A new model contradicts previous theories that the sun's magnetic field originates deep inside its interior. Deep origin theories could not explain rotation patterns of the sun's gas near its surface ...

Our Sun is far from a smooth, white ball in the sky. Twisting and looping magnetic field lines rise from its surface like hair, causing dark, transient patches on the surface called sunspots wherever ...

The reversal could actually have a beneficial effect on Earth. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. The sun is on the verge of a ...
