NASA invites the public to join the Space Umbrella project, analyzing MMS data to study magnetic reconnection and solar wind ...
Scientists have built a device that mimics the magnetic fields surrounding the Earth and other planets. They hope to use the device to understand how the Earth's protective magnetosphere works – and ...
One of the features of Earth that is critical to protecting life as we know it is the magnetosphere. The Earth's magnetosphere is a magnetic field that protects the planet from the constant ...
NASA’s Juno spacecraft has just left the realm of the solar wind and entered the domain of Jupiter’s magnetosphere, within which all particles are manipulated by the planet’s immense magnetic field.
A flyby of Uranus in 1986 is where we gathered much of our knowledge about the distant ice giant, but new research has found that this may not have been a standard representation of the planet's ...
Today’s aurora alert proves the Sun is more dynamic than many may realize. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Space Weather Prediction Center announced today that the Sun had ...
A magnetosphere forms around any magnetized object, such as a planet, that is immersed within a stream of ionized gas, called plasma. Because Earth possesses an intrinsic magnetic field, the planet is ...
ESA’s quartet of satellites studying Earth’s magnetosphere, Cluster, has discovered that our protective magnetic bubble lets the solar wind in under a wider range of conditions than previously ...
On Christmas Day last year, NASA’s MAVEN spacecraft observed something entirely unexpected and exceedingly rare while orbiting Mars. Specifically, it appears to have noticed the almost complete ...
