A team of scientists has released a revealing discovery: the inner core of the earth -a sphere composed of molten iron thousands of kilometers deep and at a temperature higher than that of the Sun- stopped and could rotate in reverse. With the information, memes will explode in the networks.
Research published in the journal geoscience of nature based on analysis of dozens of earthquakes, suggests it could cause changes in geophysical observations at the Earth’s surface, as in the magnetic field and the length of the day.
By this way, the days have been shortening by a few fractions of a second for years without anyone knowing for sure why, spreads the study signed by Xiaodong Song and Yi Yang, of the Peking University, China.
The key to explaining the phenomenon
The seismology It is an alternative method to analyze the complex and inaccessible core of the Earth, due to its depth and extreme conditions, as earthquakes generate waves that pass through the planet’s core.
For the research, Yang and Song analyzed seismic waves from nearly identical earthquakes that just passed through the Earth’s inner core. since the 60s.
And they concluded that little change has been detected since about 2009, which suggests so the rotation of the inner core may have slowed down.
In turn, they connected it directly to aa reversal of the rotation of the nucleus domestic as part of a seven-decade swing.
“We think that the central core is, relative to the earth’s surface, rotating in one direction and then the other, like a seesaw,” they said. AFP extension.
Meme about the inner core of the Earth
As a debate began in the world of science about the scope of this research, Twitter users were quick to take the information with humor.
And for this all kinds of memes and for all tastes they took advantage of the earth’s core theme by slowing down and turning in another direction with crazy comparisons.
From choreographies, to films or viral phenomena, passing through Novak Djokovic and mocking flat earthers.
