"We were very surprised to see that the same tiny plasma jets appear to be driving both the fast and the slow solar wind." ...

Solar Orbiter has revealed that tiny, hair-like jets in the Sun’s coronal holes are responsible for both fast and slow solar ...

Tiny high-speed jets in the Sun’s coronal holes may explain how the solar wind is generated. Detected by Solar Orbiter, these findings could reshape our understanding of solar activity.

The image below, taken by the European Space Agency's Trace Gas Orbiter (which arrived at Mars in 2016), shows one of the ...

A massive 500,000-mile coronal hole on the Sun is sending high-speed solar wind toward Earth, increasing the risk of geomagnetic storms that could disrupt satellites and power grids.

In 2023, the European Space Agency reported on Solar Orbiter's discovery of tiny jets near the sun's south pole that could be powering the solar wind. The team behind this research has now used even ...

Why is Venus so different? Several scientific instruments are to explore our neighboring planet. ESA has now awarded the ...
