The findings shed light on a deeply mysterious part of Earth that is key to life on our planet.

to you it looks like it’s moving backwards, but to someone on the ground it’s just moving slower than you are. Perspective matters here.” When scientists talk about the inner core rotation ...

Although this inner core is white hot, the pressure is so high ... The rock is so hot, however, that it flows under pressure, like road tar. This creates very slow-moving currents as hot rock ...

Lander has claimed to find evidence that Mars has a solid inner core, just like the Earth. By looking at the seismic vibrations from beneath the surface, scientists can put together a picture of ...
