Scientists pieced this together by tracking seismic waves from quakes over decades, revealing a 70-year cycle where the core speeds up, slows down, and reverses. Though subtle—changing day length by milliseconds—it’s crucial for Earth’s magnetic field, which shields us from solar radiation. Researchers are now diving into older seismic data to map past rotations and link them to magnetic shifts and day-length changes, proving our planet’s hidden heart is far more dynamic than we ever imagined.
