Currently, the magnetic field has two orientations: the North and South poles. This is why we see aurora at the poles where the magnetic field is the strongest. However, these poles aren’t ...

With no magnetic fields funneling the light show to the north and south poles, this SEP aurora creates a glow across the entire night sky. While the Martian SEP auroras were previously discovered ...

North wasn’t always “up” on world maps. North doesn't always mean "up" when it comes to geophysics. Scientists have known for ...

(AccuWeather/Tony Laubach) The aurora happens when charged particles from the sun interact with Earth's magnetic field. Typically, the particles are funneled toward the north pole and south pole ...

Auroras happen when particles with a lot of energy enter the atmosphere of a planet near its magnetic poles ... and occur near the North and South Poles. On Earth, when solar storms occur ...

Northern lights may be visible in parts of the U.S. Monday night following weekend solar storms. The sun burped out a huge burst of energy called a coronal mass ejection last week, ...

They theorize that these massless particles were pulled together by the opposing directions of their spin, like the attraction between the north and south poles of magnets. As the particles cooled ...

Parts of the UK could be set to enjoy a once in a decade display of the Northern Lights next month. Increasing numbers of displays have been spotted, with more of the country able to take in the ...

The Met Office has revealed that the Northern Lights will be visible in part of the UK tonight. Here is where you may be able to spot them.
