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 ...

Our planet's invisible shield is changing in ways that scientists are only beginning to understand. Over the past two hundred years, Earth's magnetic field has weakened by around nine percent on a ...

Earth’s magnetic field has long been framed as a planetary force field, a protective bubble that keeps the worst of the Sun’s radiation at bay. Increasingly, though, scientists are finding that this ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. An award-winning reporter writing about stargazing and the night sky. Using 11 years of magnetic field measurements from the ...

Magnetism is a natural force, one that works at a distance. Magnets get their force from magnetic fields created by the atoms within the metal. Magnets are useful for things like turbines we use to ...

Every new generation of eyes sees a new version of our galaxy, the Milky Way. This Impressionistic swirl of color represents the churning magnetic fields in giant dust clouds near the center of the ...

Deep inside the Milky Way, an invisible force is quietly holding everything together — its magnetic field. Now, researchers have created one of the most detailed maps ever of this hidden structure, ...

However, our understanding of planetary magnetic fields is limited to the eight planets in our solar system, as we haven't yet accrued much data on the magnetic fields of exoplanets. That could be ...
