Magnetic anomaly detection (MAD) is a critical technology used to identify and locate ferromagnetic objects, such as pipelines and unexploded ordnance, that may be hidden beneath the surface.

"Our team has been setting the pace in advancing magnetic anomaly-based navigation, from establishing statistical rigor around performance and map quality to shaping requirements for magnetic maps ...

PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SandboxAQ today announced a series of scientific and technical milestone publications on magnetic anomaly-based navigation (MagNav), collectively ...

A flip would disrupt radio communication and scramble navigation systems. Orbiting satellites would be at risk, as a weakened magnetic field would offer less protection against space weather.

The Earth's magnetic North Pole is shifting its position. Research indicates it is moving from Canada towards Siberia. As ...

For years, NASA has been studying a growing anomaly in Earth’s magnetic field that scientists liken to a “dent” or “pothole in space.” It is a giant region of lower magnetic intensity ...

This magnetic field of the earth acts as a protective cover against any harmful charged particles from the Sun that come straight towards the surface of the earth. Instead, it traps these particles ...

Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a powerful tool for assessing the development of the fetal brain and identifying potential central nervous system (CNS) anomalies. Unlike ...

The reversal could actually have a beneficial effect on Earth. The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. The sun undergoes such a reversal every 11 years ...

When these orbiters pass through the anomaly, it can cause satellites and spacecraft to experience short-circuits and malfunctions. That's because the reduced strength of Earth's magnetic field ...

NASA is worried about the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA). This anomaly affects Earth's magnetic field, which may pose risks to satellites and the International Space Station. The SAA is caused by ...
