The Earth’s inner core, a solid sphere predominantly composed of iron and nickel, occupies a central role in our planet’s evolution and geodynamo processes. Although hidden beneath thousands of ...

Researchers have found evidence of changes in the structure of the Earth's core. University of Southern California team, led by Professor John Vidale, was investigating the inner core's rotation – a ...

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 ...

These chemical oddities may explain why Earth seems to be deficient in certain elements — and could prove useful in catalysts ...

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.

While most of us take the ground beneath our feet for granted, written within its complex layers, like the pages of a book, is Earth's history. Our history. Research shows there are little-known ...

The earth has a structure in which several layers are stacked, and is called the crust, mantle (upper mantle, lower mantle), outer core, and inner core from the outside. A new peer-reviewed journal, ...

In Jules Verne's classic 1864 novel "Journey to the Center of the Earth," adventurers descend through an Icelandic volcano into a vast underground world populated by prehistoric creatures as they ...

New research suggests that Earth’s solid inner core might not be as rigid as once believed. Instead, it could exist in an ...

It looks like we might have to rewrite the textbooks. What we have always known about the Earth’s inner core has changed, and researchers have provided us with new information. Scientists recently ...

It is known that the surface temperature of the inner core of the center of the earth, which is 96% composed of iron as a solid, is higher than the surface temperature of the sun. The reason why the ...
