With a six-wheeled Ford and a team of scientists, this group of explorers is hoping to travel from New York City to the North Pole, but that's just the start of their journey.

Ectromagnetic theory says there should be a bit of matter that is unipolar: neither north or south. So far no one has found a magnetic monopole, but physicists at Amherst college have come close.

Earth Actually Has Four North Poles There's four spots that correspond to the fabled location — it just depends on your definition.

Something odd is happening to Earth’s magnetic field. Over the last 200 years, it’s been slowly weakening and shifting its magnetic north pole (where a compass points, not to be confused with ...

Scientists reveal how solar wind tends more towards the Earth's magnetic North Pole, which may have certain implications for life in the Northern hemisphere.

Electric vehicles are obviously different from gas-powered cars, but do they have engines? We explore how EV motors and drivetrains work.

Earth's magnetic and geographic poles are situated opposite of one another. In other words, Earth's magnetic south pole is actually near the geographic North Pole.

The vault, which will be installed on an island near the North Pole, is going to attempt to use “future-proof digital storage” to protect musical recordings for centuries to come.

The Earth's liquid molten outer core, composed mostly of iron and nickel, exerts an electromagnetic field extending from the north and south pole that protects the planet from harmful solar ...

Earth’s magnetic poles are just experiencing a “soft spot” that will probably disappear in a few hundred years.

Discovery and understanding of electromagnetic induction are based on a long series of experiments carried out by Henry and Faraday. If North-pole of a bar magnet is pushed towards the coil, the ...

Could we be on the brink of a geomagnetic reversal, in which the magnetic north and south poles swap places? Earth’s magnetic field is generated by the convection of molten iron in the planet’s core, ...
