NASA's Parker Solar Probe has directly observed a powerful magnetic explosion in the sun's corona that could help us predict geomagnetic storms on Earth.
This June, the Milky Way’s brilliant heart lights up the night as planets align and the solstice sun marks Earth’s celestial tipping point.
With the increasing researches in the understanding of the ionospheric irregularities' behaviour near the magnetic equator, an attempt has been made to study the impact of magnetic activity on ...

Their math indicates that 4.5 billion years ago, Jupiter's radius was as much as 2.5 times its modern value. Its magnetic field, already 20,000 times Earth's, may have been 50 times stronger then.
However, recent studies have unveiled that Jupiter was once significantly larger, boasting a more potent magnetic field. Article continues below ADVERTISEMENT Konstantin Batygin, professor of ...
New research reveals that Jupiter was once nearly twice its current size with a magnetic field 50 times stronger. This intense magnetism, capable of disabling spacecraft, significantly influenced ...
A recent study found that Jupiter was once twice the size that it is now, making it big enough to swallow up 2,000 Earths.
Many of those lunar samples show signs of exposure to strong magnetic fields comparable to Earth's, yet the Moon doesn't have such a field today. So, how did the moon rocks get their magnetism?
Research reveals Jupiter was larger with a stronger magnetic field early on. Jupiter's primordial size was about twice its current radius, say researchers. Clues from 4.5 billion years ago help ...
The gas giant is about 11 times wider than Earth alone, with a diameter around its equator of ... solar system formed, Jupiter was twice as large as it is now. Jupiter's magnetic field was ...
