A solar wind event in 2017 struck Jupiter’s magnetosphere, generating an expansive hot region that covered half the planet’s ...

Jupiter got body-slammed by the solar wind, and scientists have finally caught it in action. A massive solar event compressed ...

A massive solar windstorm in 2017 compressed Jupiter's magnetosphere "like a giant squash ball," a new study reports.

but the exact reasons for Jupiter's painted appearance remains unknown. Below the gassy upper layers, the pressure and temperature increase so much that atoms of hydrogen eventually compress into ...

A pair of planetary scientists at the University of California, working with a colleague from the California Institute of ...

First things first, Jupiter's atmosphere has no oxygen. So make sure you bring plenty with you to breathe. The next problem is the scorching temperatures. So pack an air conditioner. Now ...

"The solar wind squished Jupiter's magnetic shield like a giant squash ball. This created a super-hot region that spans half ...

For the first time, NASA's Juno spacecraft has observed powerful solar winds squishing Jupiter's magnetic field, likened to a ...

A solar wind event from 2017 that hit Jupiter and compressed its magnetosphere created a hot region spanning half Jupiter's circumference.

Hydrogen and helium separate at pressures and temperatures found within the gas giant Jupiter’s marbled exterior is pretty familiar territory, but it’s still not clear what happens far below ...

The discovery stemmed from an unusual temperature pattern scientists observed in Jupiter's atmosphere using the Keck Observatory in Hawai'i. Normally, Jupiter's powerful polar auroras inject ...
