Every day we witness a new scientific discovery on the planet we live on. Finally, scientists announced that they had detected a new type of magnetic wave passing through the outer core.

Experts from the European Space Agency Swarm satellite Using information from his mission, he discovered a new type of magnetic wave that passes through the Earth’s outer core every seven years. The finding from ESA’s data shows that it also opens a window to a world we’ll never see.

Swarm satellites, which can track the movement of magnetic fields on Earth from space, ocean† shell† ionosphere and from the magnetosphere measure incoming signals. By analyzing this collected data, experts are uncovering new mysteries about many of the Earth’s natural processes.

According to experts, the newly detected magnetic wave occurs every seven years. It oscillates to the west and spreads up to 1500 kilometers. “Geophysicists have long theorized about the existence of such waves, but they were thought to occur on much longer timescales than our research shows,” said Nicolas Gillet of the Université Grenoble Alpes. In addition, experts said that this wave “magneto†coriolis‘ he called the waves.

For those who don’t know, Earth’s magnetic field has been compared to a giant balloon carried by strong winds, escaping attacks from cosmic rays and the sun’s gravity. Some movements in magnetic waves; Solar storms would damage communications networks, navigation systems and satellites.
