NASA’s Hubble watches Jupiter’s Great Red Spot behave like a stress ball

Astronomers have observed Jupiter’s legendary Great Red Spot (GRS), an anticyclone large enough to swallow Earth, for at least 150 years. But there are always new surprises – especially when…

Stopping off-the-wall behavior in fusion reactors

Boron could help the tungsten wall inside a tokamak keep its atoms to itself. Fusion researchers are increasingly turning to the element tungsten when looking for an ideal material for components…

NASA: new insights into how Mars became uninhabitable

NASA’s Curiosity rover, currently exploring Gale crater on Mars, is providing new details about how the ancient Martian climate went from potentially suitable for life – with evidence for widespread…

Winds of change

James Webb Space Telescope reveals elusive details in young star systems. Astronomers have discovered new details of gas flows that sculpt planet-forming disks and shape them over time, offering a…

A new era of solar observation

International team produces global maps of coronal magnetic field. For the first time, scientists have taken near-daily measurements of the Sun’s global coronal magnetic field, a region of the Sun…
