Data from the Cassini spacecraft’s final few orbits of Saturn, plugged into powerful computer models, indicate the presence of a layer consisting of helium “rain” falling above the convective metallic hydrogen responsible for the planet’s dynamo. The “Helium Insoluble Layer,” or HIL, acts to inhibit dynamo action, helping explain features of Saturn’s magnetic field.

Now, a ...

Reset Researchers at the Johns Hopkins University have completed a new model of Saturn’s interior, which hints at a thick layer of helium rain that modulates the gas giant’s magnetic field.

The so-called ‘gas giants’ are notoriously hard to peer into, and they remain some of the most mysterious planets out there. Given the extreme e...
