Train accidents could be caused by solar storms switching signalling from red to green according to new research examining the impact of space weather.Solar storms can trigger powerful magnetic disturbances on Earth, creating geomagnetically induced

Things are heating up on the Sun, with two solar flares exploding almost at the exact same time on opposite ends of the star.

In the spring of 2024, NASA plans to launch a spacecraft to capture minuscule dust particles streaming into our solar system from interstellar space.

An instrument built by a team at the University of Colorado Boulder for a NASA mission was shipped to Maryland last week to begin installation on its spacecraft.

Researchers using data from NASA’s Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer to study a microquasar – a distant black hole stripping a companion star of material – have published new findings about how cosmic-ray particles streaming away from the microquasar may be accelerated to nearly the speed of light.

NASA's Mars Sample Return program is the agency’s highest priority in planetary science, but projected multibillion-dollar overruns have some calling the plan a 'dumpster fire.'

Boulder CO (SPX) Jan 15, 2024 - Scientists and engineers at the CU Boulder will soon take part in an effort to collect a bit of stardust-the tiny bits of matter that flow through the Milky Way Galaxy and were once the initial buil

University of Colorado Boulder scientists will attempt to collect stardust from space with a new instrument designed by them at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics, a research center at 1234 Innovation Drive in Boulder.
