Scientists have uncovered new information about the Earth's core: it may not be completely solid. Instead, its center may be more malleable than expected and has changed shape in recent years.

This groundbreaking observation could have profound implications for our understanding of planetary dynamics, as the inner core’s rotation and shape influence some of Earth’s most fundamental ...

The inner core of Earth may have changed shape in the past 20 years, according to a group of scientists. The inner core is usually thought to be shaped like a ball, but its edges may actually have ...

Scientists have discovered that Earth's inner core, previously thought to be solid and unchanging, has experienced significant shape changes over the past 20 years. Through advanced seismic ...

The Shape of the Earth As is well known, the earth is a slightly flattened sphere, but it also departs from the spherical in other interesting ways. These departures have been most clearly ...

Scientists who just months ago confirmed that Earth’s inner core recently reversed its spin have a new revelation about our planet’s deepest secrets — they identified changes to the inner core’s shape ...
