From 1835 to 1954, a surge of dam building in North America and Europe nudged the poles toward the equator. During this ...

Permanent magnet homopolar inductor machine (PMHIM) has attracted much attention in the field of flywheel energy storage system (FESS) due to its merits of simple structure, brushless excitation, and ...

Dam construction since 1835 has caused Earth's poles to "wander" away from the planet's rotational axis because of the ...

On July 9, 22, and August 5, 2025, the Moon will be farthest from Earth’s equator, shifting its gravitational effect on Earth’s axis and altering rotation speed ...

In an unexpected twist, Earth's spin is set to accelerate in July and August, leading to the shortest days on record - with ...

Over the past two centuries, humans have locked up enough water in dams to shift Earth's poles slightly away from the ...

Differences in the gravitational pull between the Earth and the Moon will make July 9, July 22 and August 5 unusually short.

Magnetic lead screw (MLS) is a new type of high performance linear actuator that is attractive for many potential applications. The main difficulty of the MLS technology lies in the manufacturing of ...

One of the latest developments is a recent study from the University of Michigan, published in the journal Science Advances. It proposes that Neanderthals went extinct for astrophysical reasons. Read ...

Mukhopadhyay’s research suggests that a shift in the Earth’s magnetic poles around 41,000 years ago, known as the Laschamp event, may have contributed to the extinction of Neanderthals. Agnit ...

Scientists have determined that open-ocean waters are steadily greening at high latitudes and becoming bluer in the tropics and subtropics. Because the tint of seawater tracks chlorophyll – the ...

A space physicist has suggested that a reversal of the Earth’s magnetic poles may have wiped out the Neanderthals.
