Frontgrade Technologies, a leading provider of high-reliability computer systems for space applications, announces that its products will be used in the upcoming JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) mission.

Astronomers may have found a way to detect an exoplanetary magnetosphere using radio emissions from outbursts at the parent star.

The Swedish Institute for Space Physics (IRF) is located in Kiruna, a minerary town close to the northern tip of Sweden, above the arctic polar circle. The Space Campus of Kiruna is one of three different centres - the IRF space lab, the EISCAT center, and the Lulea University of Technology department of Space Technology and Atmospheric Science.

A repeating radio signal from a dwarf star about 12 light years away from our planet suggests that one of its stars could potentially host life.

Astrophysicists may have detected the first Earth-sized planet outside our solar system with a magnetic field—a potentially key feature for making planets habitable.

Another “hole” 20 times the diameter of Earth appeared on the surface of the sun, and the solar wind blowing from it at a speed of 2.8 million kilometers

Aurora Borealis can cause damage to satellites in severe solar storms. Scientists are experimenting to understand near-space weather better.
