NASA Study Reveals Correlation Between Earth’s Magnetic Field and Atmospheric Oxygen
According to NASA, changes in Earth’s magnetic field 540 million years ago corresponded with atmospheric oxygen shifts. This finding suggests that Earth’s deep interior may impact surface habitability. Scientists plan further research to trace these connections and their role in life’s origin.

NSF’s DKIST Captures Sharpest-Ever Images of Fine Solar Magnetic Striations
Using the NSF’s Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, scientists have captured the most detailed views of the Sun’s surface ever recorded. The new observations reveal ultra-narrow magnetic striations only 20 kilometers wide, etched into solar granules. These light and dark bands reflect subtle variations in magnetic field strength. Researchers say ...

Hubble Finds Cosmic Dust Coating Uranus’ Moons, Not Radiation Scars
New Hubble Space Telescope observations have upended decades of expectations about Uranus’ moons. Scientists once thought the planet’s magnetic field darkened their backsides with radiation, but the latest data shows Titania and Oberon are collecting space dust on their leading sides instead. This “cosmic bug splatter” effect suggests dust ...

Solar Orbiter Captures First-Ever Close-Up of Sun’s South Pole, Revealing Magnetic Field Chaos
In a historic first, ESA’s Solar Orbiter has imaged the Sun’s elusive south pole, exposing a tangle of magnetic fields and solar winds. The mission marks a major leap in understanding space weather and the 11-year solar cycle that influences Earth’s environment.

Video: Solar Orbiter Spacecraft Reveals Sun's South Pole For The First Time
The robotic Solar Orbiter spacecraft has obtained the first images ever taken of our sun's two poles as scientists seek a deeper understanding of Earth's host star, including its magnetic field, its 11-year cycle of activity and the solar wind.

Parker Solar Probe Witnesses Unprecedented Sunward Plasma Jet Driven by Magnetic Reconnection
NASA's Parker Solar Probe has made a groundbreaking discovery, observing an unprecedented plasma explosion in the Sun's corona. This rare event produced a sunward jet of particles, with protons accelerated to nearly 1,000 times the expected energy. Scientists traced this phenomenon back to a magnetic reconnection site, where twisted solar magnetic ...

Jupiter Was Once Twice Its Size - And Its Magnetic Field Could Fry Spacecraft
Jupiter's early evolution and gravitational influence played a crucial role in shaping the solar system's structure and planetary orbits, earning it the title of the solar system's "architect."

Jupiter Was Once Twice as Big With 50x Stronger Magnetism, Says New Study
A 2025 study reveals Jupiter was once twice its current size with 50x stronger magnetism. Using moon orbits for data, researchers show how early Jupiter shaped the solar system’s structure.

Scientists Warn of Inadequate Solar Storm Forecasting: What You Need to Know
Scientists warn that Earth remains exposed to solar storms due to missing early data on its magnetic fields. Current satellites offer just minutes of warning, limiting our ability to protect power grids, satellites, and GPS systems. Without broader solar observation from multiple angles, a major storm could cause catastrophic disruptions, emphasisi...

Watch: Japan's Drone Technology Turns Lightning Into A Controlled Force
Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) has developed a drone technology that claims to trigger and draw lightning.

NASA's TRACERS Mission Rescheduled for 2025 to Explore Solar Wind and Earth's Magnetic Field
NASA has delayed its TRACERS mission to no earlier than 2025 to provide additional preparation time for the crew. The mission will send twin satellites to explore how solar wind interacts with Earth's magnetosphere, particularly through a process called magnetic reconnection. These high-speed solar particles can trigger auroras and impact satellite...

Magnetic Fields Could Significantly Influence Oscillations in Merging Neutron Stars, Study Finds
Magnetic fields may play a bigger role in neutron star mergers than previously thought. A new study using advanced simulations shows that these fields can shift or suppress oscillation frequencies, altering gravitational wave signatures. This discovery could change how astronomers decode post-merger signals and refine models of neutron star interio...

Shape-Recovering Liquid Accidentally Created by Student, Challenges the Law of Thermodynamics
Upon blending the oil, water, and nickel mixture, a shape-recovering liquid, which consistently returns to the shape of a Grecian urn, was formed. It defies the law of thermodynamics. Further investigations revealed that this strange behaviour of the particles is due to the magnetic field of the particles and not a violation of the law of thermodyn...
