A supercomputer simulation of iron and carbon atoms in Earth’s inner core may explain how a molten ball at the centre of our ...

Thanks to a new study proves that Earth's inner core since 2010 has been rotating more slowly than usual. This intriguing ...

What is increasingly clear is that the inner core is susceptible in different ways to activity in the layers of Earth that encircle it. "The mechanics are that the outer core is circulating and ...

Situated between the mantle and the inner core, the Earth's outer core is a liquid layer of the Earth's core. It is mostly made up of iron and nickel, with little amounts of silicon and oxygen.

The Earth's inner core is a solid, dense sphere composed primarily of iron and nickel. Located beneath the liquid outer core, it spans a radius of about 1,200 kilometers (746 miles).

A University of Minnesota professor said the Earth’s inner core hasn’t stopped but has slowed down in response to a CNN article published Jan. 26 titled “Earth’s Core May Have Stopped Turning and ...

A trio of physicists, two with Coventry University, in the U.K., and the third with Laboratoire National des Champs ...

I can see the Earth's layers-- the crust ... It's much too hot to go anywhere near the inner core, Don. Now, here's where the Drill Train started, and here's where we are now.

Deep within Earth 's fiery belly, beneath layers of molten rock, a peculiar jig is underway. Our planet's inner core, a solid iron ball bigger than Pluto, isn't just spinning – it's doing a ...

A terrifying simulation has shown exactly what would happen if the Earth's core drastically dropped in temperature. While it's unlikely to occur in our lifetimes, the centre of our planet cooling down ...
