Scientists in the United States have created a small device that produces a tiny electrical signal from Earth’s natural rotation. Although the voltage is extremely small, the experiment shows that ...

Imagine not having to pay your electricity bills because a gigantic magnet surrounding the Earth produced power. Well, Earth indeed has a magnet like this, which is its magnetic field. When the fiery ...

A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new research has presented experimental evidence confirming a previously theorized ...

Life on Earth has long been understood to run on two main energy sources. One comes from sunlight, captured by photosynthesis. The other comes from chemical reactions, such as microbes feeding on ...

New satellite-based analysis explains how energy carried by Alfvén waves moves from Earth’s magnetosphere into the atmosphere to generate auroral light emissions.

In a world chasing cleaner energy, a group of physicists may have uncovered a surprising new way to make power: by tapping into the Earth's own rotation. That's right, researchers at Princeton ...

One method of making electricity cleanly to address climate change has been quietly advancing and on Tuesday it hit a milestone. A California utility is backing the largest new geothermal power ...
