University of Rochester researchers used paleomagnetism to determine these two important dates in the history of the inner core, which they believe restored the planet’s magnetic field just before the explosion of life on Earth. Credit: University of Rochester Illustration / Michael Osadciw New paleomagnetic research shows Earth’s dense core formed 550 million years ago and restored our planet’s magnetic field. The rotating molten iron in Earth’s outer core, which lies about 1,800 miles below our feet, produces our planet’s protective magnetic field, called the magnetosphere.

However, about 565 milli
