For the first time, scientists have used satellite data to create a 3D map of the sun's interior magnetic field, the ...
Every few years, the sun seems to change its mood. Dark spots appear and ...
Using the combined might of spacecraft scattered across the Solar System, scientists have built the most detailed map yet of the boundary where the Sun's magnetic push no longer accelerates the solar ...
Astronomers created the first continuous, two-dimensional (2D) maps of the outer edge of the Sun’s atmosphere. The image highlighted the frothy boundary where solar winds escaped the Sun’s magnetic ...
Far above the Sun’s bright surface, a steady stream of charged particles accelerates into space. This outflow, known as the solar wind, starts nearly motionless and then races outward at hundreds of ...
