Like an electron spinning on a angle around an atom's nucleus, the Earth also rotates on its tilted axis around the sun at 1000 miles/hr (1600 km/hr). This rapid motion causes Earth's super-hot liquid iron nickel outer core to also circulate around in the same direction as it rotat es by what scientists call the Coriolis force . This constant flow of liquid iron nickel in side the earth's outer core generates strong electric currents, which in turn produce s a powerful north and south pointing magnetic shield of protection around the Earth called the magnetosphere . God created this invisible barrier to protect Earth 's atmosphere and surface from the damaging solar winds.
