Updated World Magnetic Model Predicts Magnetic North Pole’s Shift
On December 17, the National Centers for Environmental Information and the British Geological Survey released an updated version of the World Magnetic Model, designed to predict Earth's magnetic field changes over the next five years. The update is crucial for ensuring the accuracy of navigation systems, including satellite and smartphone applicati...

Jupiter’s Earth-Sized Storms Might Be Caused by Magnetic Tornadoes, Study Claims
Magnetic tornadoes twisting down from Jupiter's ionosphere create massive, Earth-sized anticyclonic storms in the planet's atmosphere. These dark ovals, detectable only in ultraviolet light, form dense hazes of aerosols stirred by swirling magnetic vortices. This phenomenon, visible at Jupiter's poles, was unveiled through data from the Hubble Spac...

Earth's Magnetic North Pole Moving Closer To Russia. Here's What It Means
The molten iron in Earth's outer core flows in unpredictable ways, causing the magnetic poles to shift.

Earth's Poles Are Moving And Will Flip. Why Is That A Cause Of Worry
When such reversals happen, there comes a time when the magnetic shield shrinks to zero before growing again with the opposite polarity.

Rare Exoplanets Orbiting Pulsars Searched in the Largest Survey Conducted by Researchers
In the latest research, astronomers from the University of Manchester have conducted the largest search for pulsar orbiting exoplanets. The survey included more than 800 pulsars which were analysed over the last 50 years. The researchers have tried to detect signals indicating the presence of planetary companions that had around 100 times more mass...

Earth Is Unlikely to Reverse Its Magnetic Polarity, Here's Why
A mysterious region in the South Atlantic with vanishing geomagnetic field spurred fears regarding Earth's magnetic polarity. However, a new study stated that the current alterations aren't extraordinary, and a reversal is unlikely. Andreas Nilsson, a geologist at Lund University, said that anomalies like the one in the South Atlantic are likely pe...

DJI OM 5 Review: A Gimbal That Fits in Your Pocket
DJI’s OM 5 is the successor to the OM 4. The 3-axis gimbal retails at Rs. 14,990 in India. It comes with a refined form factor, new button placements and an extension pole that acts as a selfie stick. Is it worth the asking price? Find out in this review.

Saturn's Aurorae Fuelled by Planet's High-Altitude Winds, Research States
An aurora is a beautiful display of natural lights in the sky, usually seen near the North and South Poles at night. Scientists have long believed that aurorae are created when the solar winds interact with the Earth's magnetic field — when streams of electrified particles emitted by the Sun are trapped in the magnetic field of the Earth.

North Pole Is Mysteriously Moving, And US Government Finally Caught Up
Magnetic north is not where it used to be.

Magnetic North Pole Leaves Canada, On Fast New Path
The position of the Earth's magnetic North Pole -- used in navigation systems such as smartphones -- is moving far faster than it has, sending scientists scrambling to put out a new model this week.

NASA Sounding Rockets to Study Earth's Magnetic Field
NASA is launching two sounding rockets over Norway to study how particles move in a region near the North Pole where the Earth's magnetic field is directly connected to the solar wind.

Two New NASA Rockets to Study Earth's Magnetic Field
The US space agency is planning to launch two sounding rockets over Norway this winter to study how particles move in a region near the North Pole where Earth's magnetic field is directly connected to the solar wind.
