Uh, Earth’s Inner Core Just Stopped Spinning

Earth’s inner core’s spin has slowed and “paused.”

Scientists believe this happens roughly every seven decades as the core will then start spinning a different direction.

A new study says there’s a direct connection between the inner core’s spin and life on Earth’s surface.

Earth’s inner core stopped spinning. But don’t fret, it appears this happens from time to time, say every seven decades or so.

A new study published in Nature Geoscience by geophysicists Yi Yang and Xiadong Song of Peking University in Beijing explored the nature of movement of Earth’s inner core, largely made up of iron and molten liquids. They found the inner core’s movement recently reduced enough they consider it “paused,” all part of what “seems to be associated with a gradual turning back of the inner core as a part of an approximately seven-decade oscillation.”
The last turning point was in the early 1970s.

Our understanding of Earth’s inner core doesn’t have a strong history. Ancient days, of course, had folks believing in a hollow core. Then came the understanding of iron and a molten mixture making up Earth’s middle, coupled with the theory of spinning happening separate from the rest of Earth. Song confirmed the spinning theory in 1996.

We don’t quite know the speed of spinning, but it appears that may be because the inner core remains in a constant state of flux and switches directions roughly every seven decades thanks to electromagnetic imbalances and gravitational forces.
The new study further tracked seismic waves through the core to see how they played out on the other side of Earth. “This globally consistent pattern suggests that inner-core rotation has recently paused,” the study says.

With the spin changing throughout the decades, the authors believe there’s an interplay between the spinning of the core and Earth’s mantle, and not just a spinning core for spinning’s sake.
“This multidecadal periodicity coincides with changes in several other geophysical observations especially the length of day and magnetic field,” the authors write. “These observations provide evidence for dynamic interactions between the Earth's layers, from the deepest interior to the surface, potentially due to gravitational coupling, and the exchange of angular momentum from the core and mantle to the surface.”

Paul Pelosi Attack: David DePape Full Police Interrogation 

Paul Pelosi Attack: David DePape Full Police Interrogation 

Paul Pelosi Attack: David DePape Full Police Interrogation SAN FRANCISCO - David DePape admitted to attacking Paul Pelosi and told San Francisco police that he intended to hold Nancy Pelosi hostage, according to a recording of his interrogation made public Friday.While speaking to a special investigator, DePape, 42, espoused conspiracy theories focused on the Democratic Party and Nancy Pelosi, who at the time was the speaker of the House.Authorities had previously described DePape's statement, including that he wanted to break Nancy Pelosi's kneecaps, shortly after he was arrested at the Pelosis home on Oct. 28. But this is the first time the public can hear DePape's response to the officer's questions. Body camera footage showing DePape apparently assaulting Pelosi, a recording of Pelosi speaking with a 911 operator and surveillance footage showing someone identified as DePape breaking into the Pacific Heights home were all released Friday.In the interrogation, DePape readily admitted to being the attacker and explained in step-by-step detail how he broke into the house. He also espoused his many false beliefs that the Democrats stole the election from Trump. He said he viewed Nancy Pelosi as the biggest of the liars. DePape's voice shows his eagerness to relay what happened in detail, and he gets emotional while talking about some of his unsubstantiated pro-Trump conspiracy theories. The tone was light and friendly.Paul Pelosi Attack David DePape Full Police Interrogation Nancy True Crime Podcast 2023 Police Interrogations, 911 Calls True Police Stories Podcast Trump conspiracy theoriesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dark-web-vlogs-join-the-ghost-on-outrageous-adventures-and-explore-the-unimaginable--3255902/support.
