"This is the first solid evidence that helical magnetic fields can explain astrophysical jets at different scales." ...

When these collisions take place, the icy particles vaporize, forming charged water molecules that interact with Saturn’s magnetic field; ultimately, falling toward Saturn, where they burn up in ...

Chorus waves are mysterious, chirping signals produced by spiraling plasma inside our planet's magnetic field. But a new ...

That's ring rain. It turns out, Saturn's magnetic fields are slowly but surely draining away the rings, so we're lucky to visit the rings now, because every 30 minutes, they lose enough water to ...

NASA detects mysterious 'chirping' signals, or chorus waves, 165,000 km from Earth, revealing surprising energy transfer in ...

Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could ...

Earth, Jupiter, and Saturn all have dipolar magnetic fields, meaning they have a north and south pole - the type of configuration we're obviously used to. But Uranus and Neptune don't. Instead ...

Scientists have detected cosmic waves that sound like chirping birds in an unexpected place. These bursts of plasma, called ...

When these collisions take place, the icy particles vaporize, forming charged water molecules that interact with Saturn's magnetic field; ultimately, falling toward Saturn, where they burn up in ...

The rings of Saturn could be much older than previously believed, possibly as old as the planet itself. In 2004, when NASA's Cassini probe arrived to study Saturn, it discovered that the ice ...
