Earth’s inner core has long challenged researchers because seismic waves do not move through it uniformly. Compressional ...

The Earth's internal layers including the mantle, outer core, and inner core. Scientists believe that the inner core’s rotation began to slow down in 2010, but what that really means has been up for ...

Deep beneath our feet, far beyond the reach of any drill, new research suggests that Earth’s center is far more intricate than a simple metal ball. Instead of a single solid sphere, the inner core ...

There may be hidden layers to Earth’s core dictated by chemical composition. In A Nutshell Lab experiments suggest Earth’s ...

LOS ANGELES — USC scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery about the nature of the Earth’s enigmatic inner core, revealing for the first time that this 1,500-mile-wide ball of iron and nickel ...

The rotation of the Earth's inner core may be reversing, scientists have found in a study that sheds new light on geological processes occurring deep within our planet. The results of the research, ...

(CNN) — The rotation of Earth’s inner core may have paused and it could even go into reverse, new research suggests. The Earth is formed of the crust, the mantle and the inner and outer cores. The ...

Deep beneath our feet, at a staggering depth of over 5,100km, lies Earth's inner core — a solid ball of iron and nickel that plays a crucial role in shaping the conditions we experience on the surface ...

The surface of Earth's inner core may be shape-shifting, new research suggests. The study, published Feb. 10 in the journal Nature, looked at earthquake waves that have skimmed the edge of the inner ...

The Earth's internal layers including the mantle, outer core and inner core. New research shows the inner core undergoes structural transformation likely caused by outer core disturbance. The surface ...

The rotation of Earth's inner core may have paused and it could even go into reverse, new research suggests. The Earth is formed of the crust, the mantle and the inner and outer cores. The solid inner ...
