Flickering coronal "loops" on the Sun are warning signs of a coming solar eruption, paving the way for better space weather ...

During the solar maximum, the sun's magnetic field ... may be heading our way in the coming years. "When the sun hurls fast ...

Astronomers have discovered two strange objects that could be young stars — except they're completely surrounded by ice.

As the sun geared up to spit a powerful solar flare into space, NASA scientists snapped huge loops of plasma leaping from the sun's surface. These spectacular solar structures, known as coronal ...

The obvious reason for the increased frequency is the arrival of solar maximum. This peak in the sun's roughly 11-year cycle of activity, which is triggered by the weakening and eventual flipping ...

Solar material is gusting out of the dark patch in the Sun's corona towards Earth at more than a million miles per hour.

A massive 500,000-mile-wide (800,000-kilometer) coronal hole in the sun's atmosphere is unleashing a stream of fast-moving solar wind toward Earth, potentially supercharging auroras on Jan. 31 and ...

Breaking its previous record by flying just 3.8 million miles (around 6.1 million kilometers) above the surface of the sun, NASA's Parker Solar Probe hurtled through the solar atmosphere at a blazing ...

The sun’s solar wind, made of charged particles, interacts with powerful eruptions, affecting cosmic rays and space weather.

The sun undergoes such a reversal every 11 years, which marks an important stage in the solar cycle. The shift in polarity marks the point at which the sun is halfway through solar maximum ...
