Uncover the mysteries of Mars' magnetic field, generated by a molten core, unlike Earth's solid core structure.

NASA’s James Webb telescope is offering a new look at Neptune’s aurora, leading to a new mystery involving the eighth planet from the sun.

These spectacular lights resemble those seen on Earth, where they're generated when energetic particles interact with our planet's ... by its own magnetic field. (Earth has one, too!

First ever supercomputer simulations of Mars with a fully molten core could explain the Red Planet's unusual ... found that Mars could have produced a one-sided magnetic field with a fully molten ...

the planet’s magnetic field nearly collapsed. What followed was a cascade of environmental and biological changes that may have shaped the course of human evolution. This period, called the ...

The team used more than a decade’s worth of observations of Uranus’ unique aurorae taken with Hubble and refined the planet’s rotation period. This technique revealed that it completes a rotation 28 ...

Only a few years ago, astronomers heralded the discovery of a rocky world circling the sun 's closest space neighbor, Proxima Centauri.

Geophysicist Daniel Lathrop wants, among other things, to use it to predict when the Earth’s magnetic field will next reverse. Over the course of our planet’s history, the field has flipped ...

This estimate was based on radio signals emitted by the pale turquoise planet's auroras and direct magnetic field measurements ... it would have been impossible to detect the periodic signal ...
