NASA's James Webb Space Telescope Captures Glowing Aurora in Vivid Detail On Neptune For the First Time The James Webb Space ...

The magnetosphere isn't part of the atmosphere, since it's not composed of matter. Instead, it's a charged field that deflects charged particles emitted by the sun during solar storms. Not only ...

The most elusive planetary aurora in the Solar System has finally been revealed in all its gently glowing glory.

It has a thin atmosphere and no magnetosphere so humans who intend to spend any long period in Mars are probably going to have to live underground or in some sort of devices that can shield them ...

He is presently working on the problem of magnetosphere-atmosphere coupling and is applying space plasma physics to the study of astrophysical systems. Daniel Baker has devoted much of his recent ...

which then take up to three days to collide with the Earth’s atmosphere. This causes a geomagnetic storm, a major disturbance in the magnetosphere which intensifies the aurora. In March 1989 ...

Her research provides new insights for understanding how the atmosphere of Mars has evolved ... is the concept of a degenerate induced magnetosphere—a state in which extreme solar wind ...

Without a protective magnetosphere and atmosphere like Earth's, the lunar surface faces continual particle bombardment from solar wind, cosmic rays, and micrometeoroids. This constant assault ...

FAST (Earth's aurora), THEMIS (Earth's magnetosphere), RBSP (Earth's radiation belts), MMS (magnetic reconnection mission), and MAVEN (Mars atmosphere). We also contribute to STEREO (solar wind) and ...
