Several theories suggest that Earth's core is rotating independently of our spinning planet. Latest research by scientists has revealed that the rotation speed of Earth's core is slowing down ...

While Earth's slowdown is not noticeable on human timescales, it's enough to work significant changes over eons. One of those ...

Some analyses even proposed that the core didn’t rotate at all. One promising model proposed in 2023 described an inner core that in the past had spun faster than Earth itself, but was now ...

Scientists have raised concerns that the Earth's inner core may completely halt its rotation by 2040, according to a recent paper published in Nature. The study suggests changes are occurring deep ...

Earth's inner core is a roughly moon-size chunk of solid iron and nickel that lies more than 3,000 miles (4,800 kilometers) below our feet. It is surrounded by the outer core — a superhot layer ...

The world is hungry for renewable sources of energy, which has led some scientists to ask the question: what about the rotation of the Earth? A new study reports that researchers have successfully ...

"This means that a shift in mass is taking place, and this is affecting the Earth's rotation," explains Benedikt Soja, Professor of Space Geodesy at the Department of Civil, Environmental and ...

Ever since its formation around 4.5 billion years ago, Earth's rotation has been gradually slowing down, and its days have gotten progressively longer as a result. While Earth's slowdown is not ...
