A groundbreaking study reveals that the Moon has a solid inner core with a density comparable to iron, reshaping our ...

Scientists confirm the Moon has a solid iron core, like Earth’s, with a molten outer layer. This discovery reshapes our ...

He and his colleagues report the finding today in Nature Geoscience 1. Earth’s inner core is surrounded by an outer core, and the interface between the two, around 5,100 kilometres below the ...

Surprising differences in the two so-called Large Low-Velocity Provinces may risk instability in Earth's protective magnetic ...

Continent-sized structures of mineral protruding from the lower mantle towards Earth's outer core may be contributing to an ...

Located 3,000 miles below the Earth’s surface, the inner core is anchored by gravity within the molten liquid outer core. It's believed to play an important role in maintaining the planet’s ...

The new research adds to the mysteries of the planet’s deepest interior region. By Kenneth Chang The inner core at the center of the Earth, a ball of iron and nickel about 1,500 miles wide, may ...

Earth’s innermost layer is a hot, solid ball of metal surrounded by a liquid metal outer core. For decades, planetary scientists suspected that the solid inner core deformed over time as it spun.
