Using asteroseismology, an international research team has discovered a surprising alignment of the rotation axes of stars in open clusters, shedding light on the conditions in which stars are formed ...

Because of Earth's dynamic climate, winds and atmospheric pressure systems experience constant change. These fluctuations may affect how our planet rotates on its axis, according to NASA-funded ...

Climate change has contributed to the shifting of Earth's axis of rotation, according to new research. Earth's geographic north and south poles—where the planet's axis of rotation intersects with its ...

Researchers in Germany have now directly observed this wobble with the highest precision yet thanks to a large ring laser ...

Research has shown that rising sea level across the globe has triggered a slowdown in Earth's rotation. A team led by Harvard researcher Jerry Mitrovica published their results in Science Advances ...

SOME believe it is just a figment of overactive imaginations. But evidence is growing that the so-called "axis of evil" – a pattern apparently imprinted on the radiation left behind by the big bang – ...
