Why Jupiter Has Four Giant Moons While Saturn Has Just One, Study Explains
Scientists suggest the strong magnetic field of Jupiter created regions for multiple large moons to form, unlike Saturn. The findings could reshape how astronomers search for exomoons in distant planetary systems.

James Webb Telescope Maps Uranus in 3D for the First Time; Data Reveals Hidden Storms, Methane Clouds
The James Webb Space Telescope has produced the first 3D map of Uranus’s upper atmosphere, tracking temperatures and ion densities up to 5,000 kilometers above its clouds. The observations reveal bright auroras shaped by the planet’s tilted magnetic field and confirm that Uranus is still slowly cooling over long timescales.

ESA’s Solar Orbiter Reveals How Magnetic Avalanches Trigger Solar Flares
New observations from ESA’s Solar Orbiter show that solar flares can be triggered by cascading magnetic disturbances. During a close solar pass, the spacecraft captured fine details of twisted magnetic fields repeatedly breaking and reconnecting, creating a magnetic “avalanche” that amplified a small instability into a powerful flare. The fin...

Parts Of US Could See Northern Lights Today
The aurora could be visible across Canada and much of the northern tier of US states — and possibly farther south — Monday night following a major disturbance in the Earth's magnetic field, a forecast shows.
