A University of California, Berkeley, geophysicist has made the first-ever measurement of the strength of the magnetic field inside Earth’s core, 1,800 miles underground. The magnetic field strength ...

High school students in Portugal programmed a small, inexpensive Raspberry Pi computer to measure Earth's magnetic field from the International Space Station. When you purchase through links on our ...

A small, round piece of asteroid Ryugu (sample #91), called “S-lunar,” contains tiny particles (less than 1 mm) that will allow planetary scientists to study the magnetic signature of the early solar ...

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have shown that by using DNA molecules as scaffolds, they were able to create superconducting nanodevices that demonstrate a new type of ...

Astronomers have measured the strongest magnetic field ever found in the universe. The honor goes to a powerful type of neutron star, with a surface magnetic field of over 1.6 billion Tesla. The newly ...

For the first time, researchers measured the magnetic pull inside a single bacterium, turning a biological mystery into hard numbers.
