Every day space telescopes provide spectacular images of the solar activity. However, their instruments are blind to its main driver: the magnetic field in the outer layers of the solar atmosphere, where the explosive events that occasionally affect the Earth occur. The extraordinary observations of the polarization of the Sun's ultraviolet light achieved by the CLASP2 mission have made it possible to map the magnetic field throu...

Cooperative operations between a solar observation satellite and a sounding-rocket telescope have measured the magnetic field strength in the photosphere and chromosphere above an active solar plage region. This is the first time that the magnetic field in the chromosphere has been charted all the way up to its top. This finding brings us closer to understanding how energy is transferred between layers of the Sun.

Ask a Singaporean where they’d like to travel to pre-Covid, chances are you’ll hear Hokkaido, Japan. It’s easy to see why it’s a favourite: everyone loves the weather, the food, and of course, the breathtaking views. While travel might not be the first thing on your mind right now, Hokkaido’s already ready and waiting for visitors to visit their wonderful attractions. The following video shows how Hokkaido is preparing for your return, and what you can look forward to doing when you’re back: We’ve listed out some of these featured activities in this article - this is by no means...

Oscars 2021: Here Are 5 Qualified Features You May Not Know About Many pundits are calling it for Pixar’s Soul or Cartoon Saloon’s Wolfwalkers,the two most lauded films in the recent round of critics’ awards. A few other big-studio tentpoles are being talked out about as likely nominees with an outside chance of a win: Netflix’s Over the Moon, Pixar’s Onward, Studio Ghibli’s Earwig and the Witch. These predictions are sensible, and this reveals an unfortunate fact about the animated feature race: when choosing their nominees and winner, Academy voters tend to plump for the sa...

Nasa has approved a large contribution to Japan’s Extreme Ultraviolet High-Throughput Spectroscopic Telescope (EUVST) mission. Led by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, the mission involves a solar telescope that will study the way the sun’s atmosphere detaches to become the solar wind. This is a constant sleet of particles that flows through the solar system creating “space weather” that sparks the polar lights on Earth, and disrupts technology. Along with other solar missions, such as the European Space Agency’s Solar Orbiter and Nasa’s Parker Solar Probe, EUVST will help p...
