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 ...

Scientists found that carbon enabled Earth’s core to solidify. Without it, the inner core may not exist. A team of scientists ...

Scientists have debated for years about what's going on with Earth's inner core. A new study offers compelling evidence that the inner core reversed direction and is slowing down. The shift happened ...

Geophysicist John Vidale noticed something striking while tracking the way seismic waves move from Earth's crust through its core. The very center of the planet, a solid ball of iron and nickel ...

The mysteries of Earth’s inner core have long been a topic of intrigue for scientists, with the planet’s central engine playing a key role in shaping our world. Recent research has unveiled an ...

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 ...

Earth’s core, the deepest part of our planet, is characterized by extremely high pressure and temperature. It is composed of a liquid outer core and solid inner core. The inner core is formed and ...

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 ...
