A coronal hole in the sun could result in visible auroras over about 15 U.S. states tonight (June 25), with the Space Weather ...

A complete survey of all the particle and antiparticle activity that goes on during the Sun’s 11-year cycle has found previously unknown ways these particles behave. Cosmic rays coming from ...

Because the moon lacks a magnetic field like Earth's, the barren lunar surface is constantly bombarded by energetic particles from the sun; these particles make up the solar wind.Scientists have ...

NASA captured an image of the sun emitting a powerful solar flare that could interfere with technology on Earth.

For the first time in history, we re seeing the Sun from an angle no one ever has: from above and below its poles. Thanks to ...

The robotic Solar Orbiter spacecraft has obtained the first images ever taken of our sun's two poles as scientists seek a deeper understanding of Earth's host star, including its magnetic field, its ...

A giant hole has opened in the atmosphere of the Sun, and it's blasting out a high-speed wind that is directed right at Earth.

And the sun is brimming with charged particles because its interior is so hot that atoms there are stripped of one or more electrons, forming what we call a plasma.

Ambitious scientists in the UK want to try to geo-engineer the atmosphere to stop the sun from overheating Earth. UPI. The experiment will send high-flying planes to release sulfate particles into ...

An SwRI-led study identified particles accelerated to extremely high energies by magnetic reconnection near the Sun. As NASA's Parker Solar Probe (trajectory shown in green) crossed the ...
