The research team has identified atacamite as a material with magnetocaloric properties. Natural crystals have long ...

On this line, the true and magnetic headings are the same. For any given location on Earth, the angle between magnetic north and true north is called variation. It is read in degrees east or west.

And that’s exactly what happened, at least some of the time. When the young sharks were exposed to the magnetic field of the place they were caught, off Florida’s Gulf Coast, they swam in ...

Bogong moths use stars and Earth’s magnetic field to navigate epic migrations - revealing the first known stellar compass in ...

Magnetic Resources signs key native title agreement for its Lady Julie gold project Agreement removes any objection to the issue of mining lease that are under application DFS will include an ...

Lund University A groundbreaking study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the Australian Bogong moth uses the stars and the Milky Way as a compass during its annual 1,000-kilometre journey to ...

Australia’s iconic bogong moths are the first creatures other than humans and some birds known to navigate by the night sky.

Migrating bogong moths use stars and Earth's magnetic field to find ancestral summer caves each year by Eric Warrant, The Conversation edited by Gaby Clark, reviewed by Andrew Zinin Editors' notes ...

An Australian moth follows the stars during its yearly migration, using the night sky as a guiding compass, according to a ...

Scientists previously found that the moths could sense Earth’s magnetic field with an internal compass. And now, they say they’ve cracked the rest of the mystery.

Sets of magnetic building blocks are fun and engaging, but they also teach your kids about science, technology, engineering and math. The Magna-Tiles 100-Piece Clear Colors Set is a first-rate set ...

The magnetic compass always points toward “true north,” based on the Earth’s gravitational field. It’s a relatively unchanging constant that the ship can reliably steer by.
