The creation of the belts, and others like it in the future, are a potential new danger to astronauts and satellites headed ...

Data collected from a once-defunct NASA satellite show that Earth grew two extra radiation belts following a supercharged ...

Amid a steady stream of galactic cosmic rays and solar energetic particles raining down on planes, the higher altitude and latitude of flights, the higher radiation doses for crew and passengers.

In winter, incoming solar radiation and outgoing terrestrial radiation can greatly change the temperature of an air mass.

The largest solar storm in two decades hit Earth in May 2024. For several days, wave after wave of high-energy charged ...

induce dangerous currents in power grids and increase the radiation exposure of astronauts. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this image of coronal loops above an active region on the ...

Radiation testing suggests that solar cells made from carbon-based, or organic, materials could outperform conventional silicon and gallium arsenide for generating electricity in the final ...

Silicon solar cells used on Earth rapidly degrade when exposed to the harsh radiation of space. Alternatively, gallium-arsenide solar cells are used today on satellites and spacecraft for the ...

Panasonic has unveiled a new version of its Eco Cute CO2 heat pump that produces domestic hot water mostly during daytime based on solar radiation data. It integrates a dedicated app to obtain day ...
