New research led by a Southwest Research Institute scientist identified a new source of energetic particles near the Sun.

The Sun’s magnetic field is stronger than Earth’s own, and in certain variable regions it can be thousands of times stronger.

According to NASA, solar radiation storms or solar flares occur when a large-scale magnetic eruption causes a coronal mass ...

The stripes, called striations, ripple across the walls of solar granules—convection cells in the Sun’s photosphere where hot ...

New research suggests that Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, was once even bigger—about twice its current size—and had a magnetic field 50 times stronger than it does today. This ...

NOAA’s Kp index, which measures auroral activity intensity, may reach level 5 during the forecast period, indicating enhanced auroral displays with increased brightness and movement. This intensity ...

A “severe” solar storm is expected to reach Earth any time from late morning to Sunday evening Eastern time, according to NOAA.

Scientists have identified a new source of energetic particles near the Sun. These definitive observations were made by instruments aboard NASA's Parker Solar Probe, which detected the powerful ...
