NASA’s ESCAPADE mission studies how solar wind removed Mars’ atmosphere, using twin spacecraft to measure atmospheric escape, magnetosphere changes, and space weather impacts.

The magnetic barrier that protects Earthlings from radiation almost collapsed some 565 million years ago. Here’s what saved it.

For the first time, researchers measured the magnetic pull inside a single bacterium, turning a biological mystery into hard ...

A study using the Very Large Array radio telescope may have discovered a magnetic field on exoplanet YZ Ceti b. Magnetic ...

Scientists at the University of Oxford have finally settled a decades-long mystery about the Moon’s magnetic field — and it turns out both sides were right. By reanalyzing Apollo mission rocks, they ...

Astro Brief is a collaboration between KSMU, the Missouri Space Grant, and MSU's Department of Physics, Astronomy and Materials Science. Hosted by Dr. Mike Reed, Astro Brief focuses on astronomical ...

In many quantum materials—materials with unusual electrical and magnetic properties driven by quantum mechanical effects—electrons can organize themselves into Landau levels. Landau levels are ...

The Apollo missions’ strange landing zone has led to decades of incorrect assumptions about the Moon’s magnetic field strength.

Ultra-low-power TMR switches enable reliable CGM activation by minimizing energy consumption while maintaining accurate, responsive device performance.

Webb maps Uranus’s upper atmosphere, revealing cooling temperatures, shifting auroras, and the effects of its tilted magnetic field.

Rocks from the Apollo missions show there was strong magnetism on the Moon, but researchers now believe these rocks mark ...

Old Apollo rocks are providing a fresh take on the moon's magnetic field. The lunar magnetic field is currently weak or even ...
