New simulation reveals how Earth’s magnetic field first sparked to life

Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects of viscosity in their simulation, they revealed a self-sustaining dynamo that mirrors today’s mechanism. The results illuminate Earth’s early history, life’s origins, and the magnetism of other planets. Plus, it could help forecast future changes to our planet’s protective shield.

Scientists Discover the Secret to This Bizarre Creature’s Extraordinarily Long Life

A few tiny molecular tweaks may explain why naked mole-rats live nearly ten times longer than similar species. Researchers believe the key to the naked mole-rat’s remarkable lifespan may come down to small but significant differences in just four amino acids. A recent study found that evolutionar
