Earth's core might be layered like an onion, according to a new study that looked at the anomalous nature of waved in the ...

Researchers at Göttingen University have uncovered new evidence that some of Earth’s most precious metals began their journey ...

Earth's core is rich with gold, and it's leaking out through the mantle and into the crust, new research has found. A new study of isotopes found in the volcanic rock that oozed out from deep under ...

Long-term satellite measurements show that Earth’s magnetic field is changing faster and more unevenly than expected, driven ...

Earth cross section showing the classic distinction between crust, mantle and core. But new research shows Earth's structure is far more complicated and may change over time. Analyzing an unusual ...

USC scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery about the nature of Earth’s enigmatic inner core, revealing for the first time that this 1,500-mile-wide ball of iron and nickel is changing. The ...

With findings on Earth’s polar extremes and its innermost core, scientists shaped how we look at the planet in 2025 in surprising and fascinating ways.

Earth's inner core, the solid iron-rich mass at the center of our planet, is slowly growing as the surrounding molten outer core cools and freezes. But this process has been a source of debate amongst ...

Earth's inner core is undergoing structural transformation. Located 3,000 miles below the Earth's surface, the inner core is anchored by gravity within the molten liquid outer core. Until now the ...

Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of any drill, new research suggests that Earth’s center is far more intricate ...

Scientists have uncovered new information about the Earth's core: it may not be completely solid. Instead, its center may be more malleable than expected and has changed shape in recent years. These ...

Earth’s inner core is changing shape, scientists have found. The discovery resolves a long-simmering controversy about what’s happening at the heart of the planet — which was long thought to be solid ...
