Dec. 9, 2024 — A NASA Hubble Space Telescope observation program called OPAL (Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy) obtains long-term baseline observations of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune in ...

Jupiter’s moon Io (left side of image) is connected to Jupiter (right side of image) through the planet’s magnetic field. Juno’s close flyby of Io revealed electrons with varying properties ...

Jupiter’s magnetic field is so strong that it’s second only to that of the Sun in intensity. The region around a body where its magnetic field influences space is known as its magnetosphere.

The size of the ice particles and the surface temperature can be estimated in this way. Since these properties are sensitive to environmental conditions – for example, bombardment by charged particles ...

My research interests are in the magnetic fields of planets, planetary plasmas and the interaction of planetary objects - from giant Jupiter down to tiny comets - with the solar wind or magnetospheric ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Data from NASA's Juno spacecraft revealed unexpected variations in electron energies within the Alfvén wing connecting Jupiter and its moon Io. These electrons ...

Our research group at LASP has built, or is currently building, electric field and wave instruments on five NASA missions including, FAST (Earth's aurora), THEMIS (Earth's magnetosphere), RBSP ...
