Did A Hole In The Earth’s Rapidly Weakening Magnetic Field Cause The Electrical Blackout In Spain And Portugal?
by Michael Without the Earth’s magnetic field, our way of life could not exist. In fact, without it life on our planet could not exist at all. The magnetosphere is essentially a shield that protects us from the charged particles from the Sun that are constantly bombarding us. Unfortunately, that protective shield is steadily getting …
‘Half ice, half fire’: Physicists discover new phase of matter in a magnetic material
Two scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have discovered a new phase of matter while studying a model system of a magnetic material. … … The phase is a never-before-seen pattern of electron spins—the tiny “up” and “down” magnetic moments carried by every electron. It consists of a combination of …
Physicist Sabine Hossenfelder: “Earth’s Magnetic Field has a Hole, and it’s changing”
Synopsis: “Earth’s magnetic field has a hole located over the South Atlantic Ocean. It’s called the South Atlantic Anomaly and according to NASA and the ESA, it’s changing. Could this be a sign that the Earth’s magnetic field is about to flip? I’ve had a look.” h/t dr0id
Earth’s Magnetic North Pole Officially Has A New Position!
Hoping to keep tabs on the magnetic north’s wandering ways, the World Magnetic Model 2025 has been released this week, revealing the latest official predicted placement of Earth’s magnetic fields. This version will remain valid until late 2029, during which time we can expect to see the magnetic north pole slowly edge further toward Russia. …
Earth’s magnetic shield guards against solar storms, but captivating auroras reveal the cosmic dance with sun’s particles.
Each second, 1.5 million tons of solar material, traveling at 100 miles per second, shoot off the sun. Earth's magnetic field deflects most of it, but not all. The solar wind, a stream of charged particles, flows at 447 km/s (1 million mph), and while the magnetic field protects… pic.twitter.com/40CSNZYesU — Historic Vids (@historyinmemes) January …
