NASA’s Carruthers Observatory Begins Mission to Study Earth’s Hydrogen Halo
NASA’s Carruthers Observatory has begun its two-year science mission to study Earth’s hydrogen-rich exosphere from a halo orbit at Sun–Earth L1. Equipped with ultraviolet cameras, the small satellite will continuously image the faint geocorona, tracking how solar storms and fast solar wind streams cause the upper atmosphere to expand, contrac...

NASA’s GNEISS Mission Will Map Electric Currents Behind the Aurora
NASA’s GNEISS mission will launch from Alaska in early 2026 to probe the electric currents that drive auroras. Two rockets will fly through glowing auroral arcs, releasing sub-payloads whose radio signals act like a CT scan. By mapping electron density and direction, scientists aim to improve space weather forecasting and better protect satellite...

Scientists Track Rapidly Growing Sunspot Behind Intense Solar Storms Toward Earth
A rapidly expanding sunspot has transformed the Sun into a solar flare powerhouse, producing more than 20 mid-level flares and several extreme eruptions in just one day. As the region now faces Earth, scientists are tracking potential radio blackouts, satellite interference, and dazzling auroras caused by incoming solar storms.

NASA’s TESS Captures First Images of Rare Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite has captured rare images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, only the third such object ever detected. Observations from January 2026 reveal the comet rotates every 15 hours and produces sunlight-driven jets, behaving much like Solar System comets. Scientists say studying 3I/ATLAS may unlock clues about th...
