General Fusion says its new fusion reactor will produce more power than it consumes by 2027 — a breakthrough that could ...

The new Russian rocket engine achieves higher acceleration than chemical rockets by using magnetic plasma accelerators, allowing for speeds of up to 100 km/s.

Without the gravity of a star, however, scientists on Earth have spent decades struggling ... for a sphere of high-powered pistons), the magnetic field started to get bigger and the plasma denser.

However, these explanations aren't realistic. To change the Earth's magnetic field, the planet's core temperature and movement would also have to change. And while the sun does emit radiation that ...

Most of the time, the Earth and Sun’s magnetic fields are misaligned, leaving our planet’s field less open to the aurora-causing effects of the solar wind. However, towards the equinox, the two fields ...

DURING the last ascent of the balloon F.NM.S. (August 18, 1934), we had the opportunity of measuring with precision the intensity of cosmic rays at altitudes of about 12,000 m., 15,000 m.

The moving metals in Earth's core create the planet's magnetic field. Our planet sits in a small corner of the Milky Way galaxy, 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's center. Our solar system lives ...
