When a coronal mass ejection slams into Earth’s magnetic field hard enough to register as a G3 storm on the five-level NOAA ...

Paleomagnetic records derive from the natural magnetisation preserved in volcanic rocks, sedimentary deposits and archaeological materials. These archives capture both the direction and intensity of ...

In less than 24 hours, the Sun erupted with three powerful solar flares.

Paleomagnetic records are the remnant magnetisation preserved in rocks, sediments and speleothems that faithfully archive the orientation and intensity of the Earth’s magnetic field through geological ...

A map of the Earth showing the present-day deviation from expected magnetic field direction. Strong deviations are in yellow-orange, and little deviations are in blue. The star is Saint Helena, which ...

Chinese scientists have claimed that the magnetic shield over North America is weakening rapidly while strengthening in the eastern hemisphere. Led by Professor Fang Hanxian of the National University ...

Up to 40 Starlink satellites, launched earlier this month as part of Elon Musk's efforts to build a high-speed internet network, were lost after a recent geomagnetic storm in space, company officials ...

The South African National Space Agency (Sansa) campus in Hermanus in the Western Cape has recorded several geomagnetic storms, which occur when plasma from the sun interacts with the Earth’s magnetic ...

Historic magnetic storms, including the newly identified Chapman-Silverman storm, can help us understand what such events could do to our power grid. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

The magnetic storm that has been raging since Friday evening is the strongest in decades. And it's not over yet. The strongest magnetic storm in decades began on Friday evening. It reached the highest ...
