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 ...

A combination of cosmic processes shapes the formation of one of the most common types of planets outside of our solar system, according to a new study.

Satellites come in all shapes and sizes, but there aren't any that look quite like SPHEREx, an infrared observatory NASA ...

Did you know that Earth’s magnetic field plays a significant role in shaping global weather patterns? This invisible shield not only protects us from solar radiation but also influences the movement ...

Uncover the surprising connection between Earth storms and space radiation through the effects of lightning on high-energy ...

During March and September equinoxes, Earth's axis is parallel to the sun's. Magnetic fields of Earth and the solar wind momentarily coincide, creating "cracks" that allow charged particles to ...

The farthest spacecraft from Earth are shutting off instruments in interstellar space, but their mission in interstellar ...

Mission engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California turned off the cosmic ray subsystem experiment ...

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 ...

Introduction: Magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) is a minimally invasive adjuvant therapy capable of damaging tumors using magnetic nanoparticles exposed radiofrequency alternating magnetic fields.
