A new series of images from the Solar Orbiter spacecraft is giving scientists the clearest view yet of the sun's volatile lower atmosphere-and unlocking critical insights into the forces behind solar ...

Scientists studied how space junk moved in orbit over a 36-year span, finding that increased solar activity caused it to fall ...

Indian researchers have pinpointed a solar activity threshold—about 67–70% of peak sunspot numbers—after which space junk in low Earth orbit falls much faster. The finding, based on tracking decades ...

HOUSTON—Solar activity—thought to rise and fall over 11 year cycles—has been on an incline since 2008, a NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)-led study says. The study points to an uptick in space ...

SEATTLE — 2024 has been the year of the Aurora Borealis, and another spectacular show fired off around the globe recently. Photographers can't stop themselves from capturing the beautiful sky colors.
