Combining these methods can offer a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of solar wind structures and their impact on the coupled Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere system, ultimately ...

Jan. 15, 2025 — New observational data and simulation models have confirmed a new type of planet unlike anything found in the Solar System. This provides another piece of the puzzle to ...

Researchers have created an improved traffic light system for predicting geomagnetic storms. They are now testing how well ...

Scientists at NASA have found patterns which could help predict solar flares, the most common form of solar disturbances aka ...

Mars's atmosphere and climate are impacted by interactions with solar wind, a stream of plasma comprised of protons and electrons that flows from the sun's outermost atmosphere (corona), traveling at ...

Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, has a unique and dynamic magnetosphere that interacts significantly with solar wind—a stream of charged particles released from the Sun. Understanding ...

affecting the entire Solar System, including Earth and its magnetosphere. Now, scientists at NASA have found patterns which could help predict solar flares, the most common form of solar ...

She mapped our solar system's "alternate fate" had it housed an extra planet between Mars and Jupiter instead of the existing asteroid belt. They developed a 3D model that simulates how the solar ...

An object eight times the mass of Jupiter may have swooped around the sun, coming superclose to Mars' present-day orbit before shoving four of the solar system's planets onto a different course.

Our team found that the average homeowner installs a solar system ranging in size from 6 kilowatts (kW) to 8 kW. For this range, solar panels cost between $15,000 and $22,500 before incentives ...

Feb. 4, 2025 — Combining two semiconductor thin films into a tandem solar cell can achieve high efficiencies with a minimal environmental footprint. Teams have now presented a CIGS-perovskite ...

A vast 500,000-mile-wide coronal hole has opened in the Sun's atmosphere. The area measures over 62 times the diameter of ...
