A powerful solar storm recently struck Venus, stripping its atmosphere due to the lack of a magnetic field. While Earth was ...

New ESA simulations suggest that a solar storm on par with the 1859 Carrington Event could wreak havoc on Earth-orbiting ...

Simulation in preparation for Sentinel-1D shows that satellites would be destroyed when faced with a super solar storm.

After a period of relative quiet on the surface of the sun, it is ramping up again in an era of high activity. It could affect your day-to-day life.

Threats from space aren't always obvious, but statistically, it's only a matter of time before one of them happens. One of ...

The Carrington Event, as it was later called, revealed that the Sun’s environment could violently change. It also suggested that emerging technologies, such as the electrical telegraph, were beginning ...

This was the first solar wind that was tracked by NASA's PUNCH Mission, a constellation of four 'travel bag'-sized small ...

For the study, the researchers modeled the influence of “flux ropes,” which are relatively smaller, tornado-like spirals of plasma and magnetic fields on the Sun. These ropes typically aren’t strong ...

The European Space Agency's upcoming Henon mission will be the first ever CubeSat to independently venture into deep space, ...

Those space tornadoes can still harm Earth’s electrical grids and digital systems. Recently, researchers including UM climate and space scientist Chip Manchester designed a completely new simulation ...
