Tiny zircon crystals in {1} are helping scientists unlock the ancient history of our planet's first {2}, which disappeared hundreds of millions of years ago.
And the crystals show that this field was a lot more powerful than anyone believed. That, in turn, could help answer a question about why life emerged on Earth. Those tiny, old crystals are locked in rocks that date to well over half a billion years ago.
At the time, tiny zircon magnetic particles floated in the molten rock. But as that rock cooled, the particles, which aligned to the {2} orientation at the time, locked into place. And those particles still sit in a pose suggesting that they were influenced by a much more powerful {2} than scientists had assumed, a new study reveals.
Earth's {2} is generated by the planet's solid iron inner core spinning in a liquid-iron outer core. Extending far beyond our atmosphere, this field protects the planet from dangerous particles blasting through space, such as solar wind and cosmic rays. But because its visible effects on the planet's surface are so minimal, studying the field's long history is difficult.
However, this history is important for understanding the future of our own planet and other planets in the universe. We know our planet has had a strong magnetic shield for a long time, because it kept its surface water and sprouted life. Otherwise, cosmic radiation would have blasted both life and water off the surface long ago.
In that scenario, Earth would look a lot like Mars, where the old {2} collapsed as the planet cooled and its core stopped spinning, according to a statement from the researchers.

Q. Cosmic rays are characterized as:
