Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of any drill, new research suggests that Earth’s center is far more intricate than a simple metal ball. Instead of a single solid sphere, the inner core ...

The Earth's inner core, long considered a solid and stable sphere, may be quite different. A recent study suggests that its surface is undergoing structural transformations, challenging our ...

Deep beneath our feet, at a staggering depth of over 5,100km, lies Earth’s inner core — a solid ball of iron and nickel that plays a crucial role in shaping the conditions we experience on the surface ...

The way that the Earth’s solid inner core layer rotates may have changed recently, slowing down in relation to the mantle, according to a new study. The research could further the understanding of how ...

The surface of Earth's inner core may be shape-shifting, new research suggests. The study, published Feb. 10 in the journal Nature, looked at earthquake waves that have skimmed the edge of the inner ...

Structure of the earth from inner core to crust (Representative Image - Canva) The inner core of the Earth's movements are slowing down and also is moving in reverse direction or backwards according ...

A wealth of new information about Earth’s inner core has surfaced in recent months. Scientists now have evidence that the planet’s innermost layer is changing shape. Scientists who just months ago ...

A new series of experiments has shown that the mysterious "E-prime layer," which surrounds Earth's outer core, is created by water that leaks deep into our planet's interior. When you purchase through ...

The change in wave speed suggests iron may be crystallized differently in this deepest region—signaling ancient upheavals in Earth’s formation. Melting glaciers are losing key nutrients — a silent ...
