While Artemis II will carry four astronauts around the Moon in a lunar flyby, scientists can't turn their attention away from ...

They move through the Sun like slow, immense swells, far below anything telescopes can see. For years, those depths have ...

Our sun is about five times less magnetically active than other sunlike stars—effectively a special case. The reason for this could reside in the planets in our solar system, say researchers at the ...

A team of researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi has identified a previously unknown type of large-scale wave deep within the Sun, ...

Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi have discovered new large-scale waves moving deep inside the sun, driven by magnetic fields far below the surface. These waves provide a window into parts of the sun that ...

Every mission to deep space is fraught with danger. A hardware failure during launch, an equipment malfunction far from Earth ...

Skywatchers across Europe, North America, and parts of Asia reported vivid aurora displays. Scientists linked the event to heightened solar activity.

Has the Sun’s activity increased or decreased in the last few years? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters hopes to address as a team of scientists investigated ...

Cosmogenic radionuclides, such as 14C and 10Be, are produced in Earth’s atmosphere by interactions with cosmic rays and offer a unique window into past solar variability. Their deposition in natural ...

Solar activity, manifested primarily through sunspots, solar flares and coronal mass ejections, has long influenced both the near-space environment and terrestrial systems. Over millennia, variations ...

If astronauts travelling in Orion – the spacecraft used on Artemis II – receive advance word of a solar storm, they are ...
