Scientists believe the Sun’s magnetic field could reverse within our lifetime, a natural cycle that occurs roughly every 11 ...

Scientists convert Earth's magnetic field collapse from 41,000 years ago into chilling audio, revealing ancient cosmic ...

In 2021, researchers predicted that a geomagnetic reversal could lead to mass extinctions and climate chaos—not from the flip itself, but from the collapsing magnetic field. With Earth’s shield ...

Magnetic field flip underway Solar Orbiter’s images are crucial to understanding the 11-year solar cycle, during which the Sun’s magnetic poles flip.

Bogong moths use stars and Earth’s magnetic field to navigate epic migrations - revealing the first known stellar compass in ...

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 ...

Galileo started this quest over 400 years ago, and scientists finally were able to peek at one of the biggest mysteries of the big star in our solar system.

"We didn't know what exactly to expect from these first observations – the sun's poles are literally terra incognita,” Sami ...

The magnetic field drives the formation of sunspots, cooler regions on the solar surface that appear as dark blotches. At the ...

In a world obsessed with the apocalyptic hellfire of ‘carbon’ and the terror of an imperceptibly warmer climate nowhere near ...

The European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter, in collaboration with NASA, has captured unprecedented images of the Sun's south pole from 40 million miles ...

Now, the magnetic field is a “kind of mess,” she said, based on Solar Orbiter’s observations, with no dominant polarity at either extreme.
