A study using the Very Large Array radio telescope may have discovered a magnetic field on exoplanet YZ Ceti b. Magnetic ...

"There’s something special happening in this region that is causing the field to weaken in a more intense way." ...

Earth’s magnetic field is essential to life on our planet. It protects Earth from cosmic radiation and acts as a shield ...

This video explains what magnets are and how magnetic fields are generated through the alignment of atomic structures.

Per the ESA, this phenomenon can be best explained by strange behaviors far within the Earth at the boundary where the ...

A notorious weak spot in Earth’s magnetic shield is growing larger and weaker. This is the conclusion of a new analysis of ...

Uranus and Neptune have been called the “ice giants” for decades. But in new research, that nickname might be more a misnomer ...

If our planet flips and no one’s around to hear it, does it still make a sound? Scientists have managed to put a chilling soundtrack to the flipping of Earth’s magnetic field — and the result is ...

An all-superconducting magnet built by Chinese scientists has generated a world-record steady magnetic field of 35.1 tesla, about 700,000 times stronger than Earth’s magnetic field. The development ...

The images, captured with the Event Horizon Telescope, show the magnetic field of the supermassive black hole M87* completely reversing. EHT Collaboration Observations of a supermassive black hole ...

The magnetic field swirling around an enormous black hole, located about 55 million light-years from Earth, has unexpectedly switched directions. This dramatic reversal challenges theories of black ...

Long before galaxies sparkled in the sky or stars took shape, invisible forces stirred in the early Universe. One of those forces—magnetism—emerged in ways scientists are only now beginning to ...
