Original Note:
Misleading headline. The inner core rotates in the same direction as the rest of the planet, but cycles between going slightly faster or slower (<1° difference/yr) every ~35 years. This natural cycle does not affect humans and is only known through precise geophysical study. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/earths-inner-core-may-started-161117768.htm https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdfdirect/10.1002/2014RG000469
