Back in 2019, a consortium of scientists predicted August 2025 as the peak of the solar activity cycle. But where are we now?

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe captured images of the sun 3.8 million miles away. Images collected by the probe include some of the sun’s outer atmosphere. The images are helping scientists figure out the ...

NASA scientists in conjunction with the European Space Agency (ESA) unveiled the first images captured by Solar Orbiter of the sun Thursday morning, providing awe-inspiring pictures that can hopefully ...

NASA's Parker Solar Probe has captured unprecedented images from just 3.8 million miles (6.1 million km) away from the solar surface. These observations shed light on the mechanisms of the solar wind ...

If you want to capture the majesty of the Sun, you should probably ask an artist, but if you want to capture its raw power, that’s a job for a robot. While generations of artists have painted or ...

Explosions of charged particles from the Sun, known as Coronal Mass Ejections (CME), are being observed in more detail by a NASA mission aimed at helping scientists better predict space weather events ...

While making a death-defying dive through the sun’s atmosphere, NASA's Parker Solar Probe has directly recorded a powerful plasma explosion heading toward our star’s surface in unprecedented detail.

Named 3I/ATLAS, the comet is only the third known interstellar object to enter our solar system, and it's the largest and brightest one yet. Perhaps unsurprisingly, researchers around the world are ...

The space rock will make its closest approach—at a cosmically slight 183,000 miles from our planet—later today, according to ...
