June 3, 2021 — High performance computers are central to the quest to understand the sun's behavior and its role in space weather events. Scientists are using the Frontera supercomputer to improve the ...
May 20, 2021 — Although patterns in the timing of moderate space weather events are known, the most extreme and dangerous events were thought to be random in their timing. This study found for the first time that ...
May 17, 2021 — Supermassive black holes devour stellar material just like their more petite counterparts, a new study ...
May 10, 2021 — NASA's Voyager I spacecraft has long since zipped past the edge of the solar system through the heliopause - the solar system's border with interstellar space - into the interstellar ...
Apr. 21, 2021 — On May 1, 2019, researchers observed a record-setting flare from the star Proxima Centauri -- a burst of energy roughly 100 times more powerful than any similar event seen from Earth's ...
Apr. 10, 2021 — Jupiter's polar cap is threaded in part with closed magnetic field lines rather than entirely with open magnetic field lines, new research ...
Apr. 5, 2021 — A new study shows a correlation between the end of solar cycles and a switch from El Nino to La Nina conditions in the Pacific Ocean, suggesting that solar variability can drive seasonal weather ...
Mar. 31, 2021 — Astronomers have detected X-rays from Uranus using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. This result may help scientists learn more about this enigmatic ice giant planet in our solar ...
Mar. 29, 2021 — Astronomers have detected new faint aurora features, characterized by ring-like emissions, which expand rapidly over time. Scientists determined that charged particles coming from the edge of ...
Mar. 25, 2021 — Sun-facing satellites monitor the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) light to give us advance warning of solar storms. But over the course of just a year or two, the metal filters in the detectors ...
Mar. 16, 2021 — The midnight births of the dramatic bright surges in Jupiter's aurora known as dawn storms are captured in a new study of data from the Juno space ...
Mar. 8, 2021 — What is the origin of black holes and how is that question connected with another mystery, the nature of dark matter? Dark matter comprises the majority of matter in the Universe, but its nature ...
Mar. 3, 2021 — In the new study, researchers analyzed the composition of solar energetic particles heading towards Earth, and found they had the same 'fingerprint' as plasma located low in the Sun's ...
Mar. 2, 2021 — An astrophysicist theorized why the chemical composition of the Sun's tenuous outermost layer differs from that lower down. His theory has recently been validated by combined observations of the ...
Mar. 2, 2021 — Analysis of observations made by satellites in 2014 has revealed a long-lasting 'space hurricane' -- a swirling mass of plasma several hundred kilometers above the North Pole, raining ...
