the Earth's rotational spin would only slow by seven milliseconds over the next 100 years, the researchers found — which is in the same ballpark as the amount the Moon's pull slows the Earth's ...

A controversial new study has claimed that it is possible to generate electricity using the Earth's rotation, its magnetic field, and a surprisingly simple device. If replicated, that could be ...

In their study, published in the journal Physical Review Research, Christopher Chyba, Kevin Hand and Thomas Chyba tested a theory that electricity could be generated from the Earth's rotation ...

But the experiments, led by Christopher Chyba, a physicist at Princeton University in New Jersey ... that the voltage truly results from Earth’s rotation, says Wijngaarden.

Experiments suggest that an unusual magnetic material can help harness energy from the planet’s rotation. But not everyone is convinced. Electricity can be generated from the energy of Earth ...
