Renewable energy is constantly evolving. Solar, wind, and geothermal power have already transformed the way we produce ...

For nearly two centuries, scientists have wondered if Earth’s rotation through its magnetic field could produce electricity. The idea was first tested by Michael Faraday in 1832, but his ...

It’s not much of a stretch to say that Earth’s inner structure, especially the innermost spherical core, has stupefied scientists for generations. It sits over 3,000 miles below the surface, smaller ...

Buried more than 3,000 miles beneath our feet, Earth’s solid inner core was once thought to be unchanging—locked in place at ...

Physicist Christopher Chaiba and his colleagues from the Princeton University laboratory have created a cylinder, capable of generating electricity from the Earth’s rotation and magnetic field.

The cylinder was placed in a pitch black, windowless laboratory to minimize photoelectric interference, and angled in such a way as to make it perpendicular to both Earth's rotation and magnetic field ...

Scientists have built a device that generates electricity by harnessing the Earth's rotation through its magnetic field, producing 17 microvolts of power. While the concept faces skepticism over its ...
