Is Earth's inner core solid or liquid? While the inner core is extremely hot, experts have known that it is solid for many ...
Is it a green aurora with pink stripes, or a white aurora with green stripes? That, apparently, became the question on the ...
Earth’s core is pretty dynamic. Its spin speeds up and slows down based on how its two primary layers are behaving. As we improve the waveform techniques used to study the deepest layer ...
That solid iron inner core of Earth may still hold liquid iron, according to a new study from the University of Utah. Scientists have used seismic waves to research Earth’s inner core ...
Over the last decade, muted paint colors have taken over the automotive world. The understated shades, which are popular for sports cars and utility vehicles, will cost you.
The Earth’s inner core is incredibly tricky to study, since it’s buried beneath thousands of miles of rock. New seismic studies suggest that it’s not just a solid ball of iron, as has been ...
Life on Earth became possible when the planet's solid inner core emerged hundreds of millions of years ago, according to new research. Scientists said that around 565 million years ago, the Earth ...
Atoms within the enormous ball of iron in Earth's inner core may move around much more than previously thought, which could explain recent findings about the core's surprising softness.
Earth is made up of several layers: the lithosphere, asthenosphere, lower mantle (also known as mesospheric mantle), outer core and inner core.
A new study of decades worth of seismogram data shows that the surface of Earth’s iron and nickel core is more malleable than scientists thought.
More than half of the world’s oceans have changed significantly in color over the past 20 years, with climate change as the likely cause, new research suggests.
