Scientists at NASA are closely monitoring a vast region of weakened magnetic intensity—known as the South Atlantic Anomaly ...

NASA has been monitoring a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field: a giant region of lower magnetic intensity in the skies ...

Satellites passing through this area often experience malfunctions, with systems crashing, data corruption, and equipment ...

the South Atlantic Anomaly arises from two main features—the tilt of the Earth and the flow of molten metals within its outer core. The Sun expels a constant outflow of particles and magnetic ...

A magnetic observatory is being re-established on South Georgia to provide vital data on the 'South Atlantic Anomaly' as scientists monitor a possible reversal of the earth's magnetic field.

NASA scientists are concerned about a strange anomaly in Earth's magnetic field, which can make life at the International Space Station difficult. The vast and evolving phenomenon is called the ...

Satellites and spacecraft face increased exposure to solar particles in the anomaly, risking glitches and data loss.

If it is not continents drifting apart due to tectonic plates, it is the Earth’s magnetic pole that is changing. The Earth’s magnetic pole has been on an interesting journey. Known to be positioned in ...

Unlike the geographic North Pole, which remains fixed, magnetic north is shaped by the chaotic flow of molten iron within Earth’s outer core. This restless movement of metal generates the planet ...

The strength of the Earth’s magnetic field ranges between 25,000 ... years and has shown more weakness in the ‘South Atlantic Anomaly’ region stretching from Africa to South America.
