NASA has been monitoring a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies ...

Where did this pothole come from? Earth’s magnetic field is widely understood by researchers to be electrical currents produced by an ocean of molten iron in the planet’s outer core, more than 1,850 ...

Scientists have captured faint magnetic signatures resulting from the tidal movement of seawater across the planet — and they ...

NASA is worried about the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA). This anomaly affects Earth's magnetic field, which may pose risks to satellites and the International Space Station. The SAA is caused by ...

The South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) – likened by NASA to a 'dent' in Earth's magnetic field, or a kind of 'pothole in space' – generally doesn't affect life on Earth, but the same can't be said ...
