The European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter spacecraft returns first-ever data of the Sun collected from a 17-degree tilted ...

The Solar Orbiter spacecraft took the image near the Sun on March 23, 2025, and it was announced on June 11, 2025.

On Thursday night, June 19, most of Michigan is within the line of sight, so if the weather permits, it might be worth looking up at the night sky, preferably in an area with less light pollution.

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

We Earthlings see the sun every day of our lives—but gaining a truly new view of our star is a rare and precious thing. So ...

The team found that the North Pole wandered over Europe when the magnetic field's poles started to flip positions, a natural process that has happened around 180 times over Earth's geological history.

In mid-December of 2024, scientists officially updated the World Magnetic Model (WMM), which helps keep track of our planet’s magnetic north and its chaotic and relatively unpredictable movements.

The magnetic north pole is shifting, scientists confirm. Its movement towards Russia has accelerated in recent decades. Researchers say it is now closer to Siberia than five years ago. Tracking ...
