The sun has become more and more active over the last 16 years, in a turn that surprised scientists and could affect space weather and technology on Earth, NASA announced this week. A new research, ...

The sun typically goes through regular cycles of increased and decreased activity, but in recent years, it hasn't been ...

Scientists have long studied the sun, our solar system’s life-giving star, trying to understand its behavior, solar flares, ...

Activity on the sun is not constant; it varies along a cycle of about 11 years. The peak of this solar cycle — called solar maximum — is when sunspots, solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) ...

HOUSTON—Solar activity—thought to rise and fall over 11 year cycles—has been on an incline since 2008, a NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)-led study says. The study points to an uptick in space ...

From the 1980s thru 2008, scientists observed that nuclear activity inside the Sun was continuously trending downward, and it was expected that this would continue. However, a new study by the ...

NASA's PUNCH mission is photographing the Sun like never before. It can see comets that are invisible to every other ...

Back in 2019, a consortium of scientists predicted August 2025 as the peak of the solar activity cycle. But where are we now? When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Has the Sun’s activity increased or decreased in the last few years? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters hopes to address as a team of scientists investigated ...

For the first time in the history of solar observation, NASA has made the Sun’s invisible magnetic behavior visible. Using ...

IBM and Nasa have made available on Hugging Face an open source artificial intelligence (AI) model called Surya, trained to understand and predict how solar activity affects Earth and space-based ...

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has lost contact with its MAVEN spacecraft, which has orbited Mars for over a decade. MAVEN, an acronym for Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution, ...
