Would you guess that the Earth is spinning at 1,000 mph around its axis and at the same time hurtling through space on its ...

In an eye-opening study, researchers have discovered that human activities, particularly groundwater pumping, are causing a significant shift in Earth's physical orientation. The findings, now making ...

China's Three Gorges Dam has effectively changed Earth's axis by nearly an inch since it was built nearly 18 years ago, ...

The axis of the Earth intersects the planet at the magnetic pole, and Earth's poles are known to wander. They can even flip. There are various possible reasons, which we don't fully understand, why ...

The massive melting of the world’s glaciers due to global warming shifted the North and South poles in the mid-1990s and altered the Earth’s axis, scientists report in a new study published in ...

Shifting water weight is changing the way Earth’s poles move around, a new study indicates. While Earth’s axis periodically shifts by itself, the effect is being exacerbated by human activity’s effect ...

When you picture the Earth spinning in space you imagine it rotating just like a globe does, with two static poles and a line running from north to south. Unfortunately, things aren't nearly that ...

The melting of glaciers as a result of climate change has knocked the Earth off its axis, according to new research. The North and South poles have moved about 13 feet since 1980 – with melting ...

Something may be stirring in the world’s largest oceanic current. New research suggests that this vast conveyor belt of cold ...

(NAPSI)-Global warming that caused glacial melting is likely the cause of a shift in the movement of the Earth’s poles in the 1990s, according to a new study in Geophysical Research Letters, AGU’s ...

If you feel like there’s less time in the day, you’re correct. Scientists recorded the shortest day on Earth since the invention of the atomic clock. Our planet’s rotation measured in at 1.59 ...
