Many Hackaday readers will be familiar with the term “core memory”, likely thanks to its close association with the Apollo Guidance Computer ... interest into magnetic core memory into ...

Some lunar rocks have left scientists puzzled for decades. Despite the Moon having no global magnetic field today, samples ...

AUSTIN, Texas — Mars played by different rules than Earth when forming its magnetic field. Rather than generating magnetism with a solid core surrounded by liquid—Earth’s approach—the Red ...

For decades, scientists have been puzzled by a strange feature of the Moon: while the Moon today has no magnetic field, some ...

The interstellar medium in our Milky Way galaxy is magnetic, can be compressed, and is turbulent. It affects important ...

It took 250 years for the Laschamps reversal to take place and it stayed in the unusual orientation for about 440 years. At ...

"Therefore we combined these results with computer simulations of the physics of magnetic field generation," emanating from the core's movements. Davies and Constable discovered that the magnetic ...

Yan said that the one-sided magnetic field could arise if Mars' inner core was liquid. In the study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, the researchers used a computer simulation ...

Astronomers have developed a computer simulation to explore ... not unlike how the motion of our planet's molten core generates Earth's magnetic field. And while the galactic magnetic field ...

In the end, the team concluded that the magnetic field was one-sided, as indicated by InSight’s data, due to the core’s escaping heat only being focused on the southern hemisphere. Image from the ...

Earth’s magnetic field is charged by the churn of the molten iron and nickel of our planet’s outer core, some 1,800 miles ... is lining the data up with computer models, says Courtney Jean ...

Although the magnetic field of Mars hasn’t been in effect for billions of years, the evidence it left behind may suggest that the planet’s core is entirely liquid. Magnetic imprints still exist on ...
