In data nearly 20 years old, scientists have finally confirmed the presence of infrared auroras, glowing in the northern ...
Another theory is that the carbon dioxide ice at Ariel is produced by molecules being broken down by radiation in Uranus’ magnetic field. The researchers also found carbon monoxide, the first ...
These plumes could be so powerful that they launch material into Uranus's magnetic field. The majority of the cracks and grooves seen on the surface of Ariel are located on the side of the moon ...
Some 10 billion miles from Earth, the decades-old twin Voyager spacecraft have beamed back new data that show frenzied bubbles near the edge of our solar system. High school students and teachers ...
researchers reanalysed nearly 40-year-old energetic particle and magnetic field data taken by NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft -- the only spacecraft so far to have gone to Uranus. They found a trapped ...
The average Hackaday reader likely knows, at least in the academic sense, what a magnetic field looks like. But as the gelatinous orbs in our skull can perceive only a tiny fraction of the EM ...
Europa Clipper launched on Monday, Oct. 14 atop a SpaceX rocket to begin a 1.8-billion-mile journey to the Jovian System to ...
A permanent magnet is always magnetic. It has an invisible magnetic field. Only certain materials, such as iron, feel a magnetic force. Permanent magnets can come in lots of different shapes and ...
NASA turned off a suite of instruments on Voyager 2 and its twin Voyager 1 after they explored the gas giant planets in the ...
