Planets originate from protoplanetary disks, circulating disks of gas and dust that develop around young stars, a recent ...

Earth’s magnetic north pole is on the move—and in surprising ways. With the release of the World Magnetic Model 2025, scientists reveal new details about its unpredictable journey and why it has ...

Scientists released an update to a model that maps the ever-moving pole and has significant implications for navigation ...

Astronomers have finally unlocked a crucial piece of the planet formation puzzle by detecting the magnetic fingerprint of a young star’s protoplanetary disk. Using ALMA, researchers observed how dust ...

A team of physicists and engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder has discovered a new way to measure the orientation ...

A fast radio burst, or a strong pulse of energy, was tracked to a distant long-dead galaxy that astronomers never thought ...

Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps moving. Here’s what to know.

Scientists have unlocked a previously unseen behavior of acoustic waves, opening up new possibilities for cutting-edge ...

The reversal could actually have a beneficial effect on Earth. The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. The sun undergoes such a reversal every 11 years ...

“The current behaviour of magnetic north is something that we have never observed before,” William Brown, a global geomagnetic field modeler at the British Geological Survey, said in a statemen ...
