A massive and evolving weak spot in Earth’s magnetic field, known as the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), has caught the attention of NASA scientists. This “dent” in our planet's magnetic shield poses ...

A mystery dent in the Earth's magnetic field is set to vanish in 300 years, scientists have found. Scientists have long believed that the Earth's magnetic field—which shields the planet's atmosphere ...

Under the right conditions, superconducting magnets allow electricity to flow essentially undisturbed, producing intense magnetic fields for a variety of uses, including nuclear fusion experiments.
