The finding, based on data from the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Hawaii, marks the first direct evidence of tiny twisting magnetic motions of energy-packed plasma waves in the sun's outer ...

A massive comet known as 3I/ATLAS that was first discovered zooming across the solar system over the summer showed signs of ...

For decades, scientists have wondered how the Sun’s outer atmosphere — the corona — burns millions of degrees hotter than its ...

Researchers have directly observed torsional Alfvén waves twisting through the Sun’s corona — magnetic waves first predicted ...

New research conducted by an international team of physicians has found that high-energy gamma rays might offer the key to unlocking the mysteries of the sun's magnetic fields.

Comet 3I/ATLAS is warming up as it approaches the sun, causing a jet to emerge. The jet is visible in a dramatic new image.

For decades, scientists have wondered how the corona, located farther from the Sun’s core, could be millions of degrees ...

Scientists say 3I/ATLAS is moving at speeds above 130,000 mph (210,000 km/h). It is only the third interstellar object ever ...

Did you know it rains on the Sun? Not water, of course. It's solar rain, which occurs in the Sun's corona, the outermost ...

Elon Musk proposes satellite-based sunlight control to fight climate change, sparking debate over space geoengineering. The ...

As 3I/ATLAS approached the inner solar system in September, the Nordic Optical Telescope in Spain's Canary Islands recorded a ...
