A new study reports that researchers have successfully used a meticulously designed cylinder to harness electricity as it passed through Earth’s magnetic field.

Scientists have raised concerns that the Earth's inner core may completely halt its rotation by 2040, according to a recent paper published in Nature. The study suggests changes are occurring deep ...

Solar, wind, and geothermal power have already transformed the way we produce electricity. Now, scientists are looking at an unexpected source—Earth’s rotation. If this concept proves viable, it could ...

Earth’s axis of rotation is tilted, as you can see from this illustration. This means that day and night are not equal lengths in most places on the planet. As Earth moves through its orbit ...

A controversial new study has claimed that it is possible to generate electricity using the Earth's rotation, its magnetic field, and a surprisingly simple device. If replicated, that could be ...

Every second, the Earth spins silently through space, its motion and magnetic field largely invisible to us. But now, scientists say this ceaseless rotation might be more than just a cosmic ...

Physicist Christopher Chaiba and his colleagues from the Princeton University laboratory have created a cylinder, capable of generating electricity from the Earth’s rotation and magnetic field.
