Research shows Earth’s magnetic field may have formed with a fully molten core - protecting the planet long before the inner ...

This all-liquid core helps explain why Mars’ ancient magnetic field was much stronger in the southern hemisphere, solving a decades-old mystery about the planet’s magnetic asymmetry.

For the study, the researchers used computer models based on data obtained from NASA’s now-retired Mars InSight lander to simulate conditions within the interior of Mars depicting the absence of an ...

First ever supercomputer simulations of Mars with a fully molten core could explain the Red Planet's unusual magnetic field. Billions of years ago, Mars had an active magnetic field. Mysteriously ...

Strange cone-shaped rocks led scientists to the hidden remains of one of Earth’s oldest asteroid impacts. It could help us find fossil life on Mars.

If Mars' core is molten now, it almost certainly would have been molten 4 billion years ago when Mars' magnetic field is known to have been active, Stanley said. To test the idea, the researchers ...
