Study Explores Sun’s Magnetic Field Changes and Solar Wind Acceleration

Study Explores Sun’s Magnetic Field Changes and Solar Wind Acceleration

In The Astrophysical Journal, a University of Michigan-led study detailed how the Sun’s magnetic field evolves as it moves through space, providing insights into solar wind acceleration. Using data from rare alignments of the Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter, researchers observed that the Sun’s magnetic field transitions from sharp oscillations to smoother waves, with … Read more

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Makes Its Closest-Ever Flyby of the Sun

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Makes Its Closest-Ever Flyby of the Sun

NASA’S Parker Solar Probe made its closest-ever approach to the Sun on Tuesday, becoming the first man-made object to accomplish this feat. Parker should have travelled as close as 6.1 million kilometres to the Sun, gathering important data about its outer atmosphere. The confirmation about these feats should arrive by December 27, as the space … Read more
