Scientists solved the mystery how Earth generates its  magnetic field

The team of university of Texas and its collaborators designed an Earth's inner core model.

This model helps in explaining the surprisingly "soft" physical properties of the Earth's dense inner core.

Roughly at 2900Km beneath the Earth's crust There's a ball- shaped core made largely of  Iron and Nickel.

The core is super hot ranging 8,000°F - 10,800°F and made up of two parts

The Two parts are: an outer liquid core and a solid inner core

The movement of Iron atoms in the liquid core results in the generation of Earth's Magnetic field.

This magnetic field plays a crucial role in making the planet Habitable.

Not only in setting up Compass directions , but it also acts as a shield around the planet

This shield helps in deflecting the powerful radiations form Solar storms.

The Earth's magnetic field is mostly generated in the liquid outer core by its sea of continously moving metal

The role of the solid inner core in this so called Geodynamo was still remained a mystery.
