From October 2023 to December 2024 — a period encompassing two solar eclipses across the U.S., two new NASA heliophysics missions, and one spacecraft’s history-making solar flyby — NASA celebrated the ...

Using ALMA, astronomers discovered that Proxima Centauri produces frequent, high-energy millimeter-wavelength flares that ...

Scientists say a vast region of unexpectedly high temperatures in Jupiter's upper atmosphere was caused by a massive wave of solar wind.

If using a regular camera, National Geographic recommends using a wide-angle lens, an aperture or F-stop of four or less and ...

The Sun has somewhat surprised forecasters by releasing a powerful X-class solar flare from a new sunspot ... The CME is unlikely to impact Earth due to the current position of the sunspot region.

With a deep partial solar eclipse already in progress, a crescent sun will appear on the eastern horizon. Thirteen U.S. states will see the March 29 solar eclipse in some form, with a deeper ...

When sunspots produce a solar flare, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are bursts of magnetized plasma emitted from the sun's corona, travel toward Earth as part of the solar wind, manifesting ...
