ESA satellites detected a dramatic reversal in Earth’s molten core flow beneath the Pacific, revealing unexpected changes ...

Deep beneath our feet, approximately 2,890 kilometers underground, lies one of Earth's most mysterious regions. The boundary between our planet's molten outer core and solid mantle acts like a massive ...

Researchers at Göttingen University have uncovered new evidence that some of Earth’s most precious metals began their journey far deeper than once thought. Working with volcanic rocks from ocean ...

The liquid iron in Earth's outer core doesn't always behave as expected. When it changed direction in an unexplained way, ESA ...

The illustration shows a cutaway revealing the interior of early Earth with a hot, melted layer above the boundary between the core and mantle. Scientists think some material from the core leaked into ...
