While we go about our days – working, eating and sleeping – the Earth is constantly rotating through its own magnetic field. Now, experts claim it is possible to harvest clean energy from this natural ...

As early as 2024, scientists from the US and China discovered that the Earth’s core had slowed down and even stopped moving in relation to the Earth’s crust. But until now, the general public—that’s ...

The standard day on Earth consists of 24 hours, which is 1,440 minutes and 86,400 seconds. However, shorter days are ahead in the next few weeks. The rotation of the Earth changes due to several ...

For nearly two centuries, scientists have speculated whether the Earth's rotation could be tapped as a source of electricity. Now, researchers at Princeton University say they have shown it can—just ...

A trio of physicists from Princeton University, CIT's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Spectral Sensor Solutions, all in the U.S., is proposing the possibility of generating electricity using energy from ...

In a world chasing cleaner energy, a group of physicists may have uncovered a surprising new way to make power: by tapping into the Earth's own rotation. That's right, researchers at Princeton ...

Will the pole shift actually happen? Discover more about Earth’s magnetic poles and how they’ve shifted in the past.

In a controversial experiment, a team of physicists investigated whether we could harness the Earth’s rotational energy to generate electricity. It’s a deceptively simple idea that researchers have ...
