Scientists say the phenomenon could “hint at” new particles or interactions between known particles that haven’t been ...

A massive and surprising change is unfolding around Antarctica. Scientists have discovered that the Southern Ocean is getting saltier, and sea ice is melting at record speed, enough to match the size ...

This article proposes an accurate and computationally efficient hybrid analytical (HA) model for the air-gap magnetic field computation of asymmetric-stator-pole flux reversal permanent magnet machine ...

Ponting was part of the scientific staff on the 1910-1912 Terra Nova expedition to the South Pole.British explorer and expedition leader Robert Falcon Scott reached the Pole on January 17, 1912.

Russia’s invasion reached Antarctica. Thirty-one scientists from Ukraine’s Vernadsky Base joined the army—now they’re called ...

New images are key to understanding solar magnetic storms and other space weather that can disrupt systems on Earth.

Extreme cold and strong magnetic interference also make navigation tricky down there. So while flying over the Arctic is common, the Antarctic skies remain mostly empty!

Interestingly, it saw that the Sun’s magnetic field has its north and south all tangled up, with patches of both magnetic polarities present right up to the Sun’s south pole. This only happens once ...

This composite image from the ESA-led Solar Orbiter mission showcases the Sun observed across eight different wavelengths, each revealing distinct layers and temperatures of the solar atmosphere. The ...

Weird magnetic fields at the sun's south pole The Sun's polar regions are pretty busy and chaotic places, it turns out. The ESA's press release about their findings goes so far as to call the Sun ...

The first photos of the sun's south pole have been sent back to earth by a spacecraft. (European Space Agency) The new images reveal a bright atmosphere which can reach one million degrees.
