A new study shows that the inner core changed shape in just a few decades, challenging previous assumptions and revealing ...

Seismic wave data previously suggested the Earth’s hot inner core is slowing its spin. Now, researchers say it’s also deforming around the edges ...

Scientists of course cannot cut into Earth and directly observe its insides. Instead, their knowledge is inferred from the ...

The Earth’s inner core is 3,000 miles below the surface and was thought to be a solid sphere held by gravity in the molten ...

Scientists found that the inner core’s structure changes as it rotates. It deforms at its border, potentially accumulating more material in some areas and less in others — almost like creating hills ...

Researchers found evidence that the Earth's inner core is changing shape, suggesting unseen processes affecting its movement ...

Earth's inner core may have changed shape, according to researchers studying unknown transformations deep within the planet.

Understanding Earth’s Core Earth's core is the heart of our planet; it's a fiery furnace where temperatures soar higher than ...

Earth's inner core is undergoing structural transformation. Located 3,000 miles below the Earth's surface, the inner core is anchored by gravity within the molten liquid outer core. Until now the ...

Continent-size islands deep inside Earth's mantle could be more than a billion years old, a new study finds.

Earth’s core is transforming, which could affect the length of our 24-hour day, Earth’s magnetic field, and more ...

Scientists have discovered that the inner core's surface is changing shape, challenging previous assumptions about its solid ...
