We have all been taught in school that planets revolve in the same direction as the Earth, i.e., in the counterclockwise ...

Researchers have unseated a previous theory for the mechanism underlying bacterial flagella movement, changing our ...

Hurricanes spin counterclockwise (like all low pressure centers in the northern hemisphere) because of the Coriolis Effect. Because the equator rotates faster than other areas of the Earth's surface, ...

Usually, tornadoes in the U.S. rotate counterclockwise. Coriolis force, imparted due to the Earth’s rotation, causes air around low centers to circulate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere.

Controlling the rotation of this molecule could lead to new technologies for microelectronics, quantum computing and more. You can easily rotate a baseball in your hand by twisting your fingers. But ...

Tornadoes do occur in the Southern Hemisphere, albeit at a greatly reduced frequency than in the Northern Hemisphere, primarily because it includes the U.S., which hosts about 75 percent of the ...
