An X-class solar flare has produced an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection, increasing solar activity and raising the likelihood of geomagnetic impacts within 24 hours.

Saturn’s magnetosphere, a vast and dynamic region dominated by the planet’s intrinsic magnetic field, plays a pivotal role in governing its interactions with the solar wind. The interplay between ...

When Voyager 2 flew past the ice giant 38 years ago, it revealed a magnetosphere warped by solar winds, a finding uncovered through recent analysis of archival data. Reading time 4 minutes A recent ...

Mercury, the innermost planet of our Solar System, exhibits a uniquely dynamic magnetosphere that, despite its relatively weak intrinsic magnetic field, undergoes rapid and complex interactions with ...
