-(Natural News) There is a weak spot in the Earth’s magnetic field, and some scientists believe it may have been caused by the remnants of an ancient planet that impacted the Earth billions of years ago. The Earth has a protective geomagnetic field that shields the planet from deadly solar radiation. This field is generated […]

-(Natural News) Hundreds of dolphins and whales are recently washing up dead on different shores across the world in what might be an ominous sign of the times. Experts are still investigating the cause of death, but there is speculation that intense solar activity and Earth’s weakening magnetic field likely contributed to the deaths. Mass die-offs in the […]

-(Natural News) A weak spot in Earth’s magnetic field called the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) has been causing computers aboard the International Space Station to crash. Sometimes called the “Bermuda Triangle of Space,” this weak spot is a vast expanse of reduced intensity in Earth’s magnetic field, hovering over South America and the southern Atlantic Ocean. […]

-(Natural News) Earth is wrapped by a magnetic field powered by the churning of hot molten metals in the outer core. Thanks to this invisible field, the planet is protected from the solar wind and cosmic particles, permitting just enough radiation to tide humans by. This magnetic field, however, can flip and does so many times every million years […]

-(Natural News) Earth is wrapped by invisible protective lines created by the churn of its core. These lines make up what’s known as the magnetic field. And it has served the planet well for billions of years: It has protected Earth from the solar wind and provided a basis for navigation. Unfortunately, it has also been weakening […]

-(Natural News) Researchers at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are monitoring a slowly splitting dent in the South Atlantic Anomaly, or SAA, the region in Earth’s magnetic field that is weaker than the rest. Recent observations and forecasts revealed that the anomaly’s valley – the portion within the region with the lowest field strength – […]

-(Natural News) The Earth is protected from solar wind — a stream of charged particles from the sun — by its geomagnetic field. But this protective barrier is weak in certain areas, particularly south of the Atlantic Ocean. Called the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), this area makes it easier for solar wind and other cosmic rays […]

-(Natural News) The magnetic field of the Earth is weakening, and scientists aren’t entirely sure why. The Earth’s magnetic field is vital for protecting life on the planet from cosmic radiation and charged particles emitted by the sun. The Earth’s magnetic field is generated by the flowing of liquid metal in the outer core, which creates […]
