A residual solar cloud from a June 2 flare may graze Earth’s field tonight, keeping a chance of northern-tier auroras alive as the week’s G3 storm winds down
Skywatchers across the northern United States and southern Canada who assumed the aurora show was over after this week’s ...
The SMILE mission will spend three years studying how our planet's magnetosphere interacts with solar weather.
It has long been known that the Earth’s magnetic field provides a protective barrier for life on Earth. As energetic particles stream outward from the Sun in the form of the solar wind, they are ...
A massive wave of solar wind that squished Jupiter's protective bubble has been detected for the first time. Scientists at the University of Reading have discovered a solar wind event from 2017 that ...
Unfortunate timing The first panel of this artist's concept depicts how Uranus's magnetosphere – its protective bubble – was behaving before the 1986 flyby of NASA's Voyager 2. The second panel shows ...
Researchers have created pictures showing how solar storms compress our planet's protective magnetic field. The findings could help improve communications satellite design. Martin LaMonica is a senior ...
On Nov. 3, a solar storm caused a temporary crack in Earth's magnetic field. The resulting hole enabled energetic particles to penetrate deep into the planet's atmosphere and set off extremely rare ...
