A bubbling ball of gas
The Sun is a bubbling mass. Packages of gas rise and sink, lending the sun its grainy surface structure, its granulation. Dark spots appear and disappear, clouds of matter dart up - and behind the whole thing are the magnetic fields, the engines of it all. view more (2009-11-12)
PRESS CONFERENCE - Presentation of the UnivERsol project to promote the development of photovoltaic energy in Europe
On Monday 14th January at the Barcelona Science Park, a press conference will be held to mark the public presentation of the "UnivERsol" project (Universities, Renewable Energies, solar), which is co-financed by the Directorate General for Transport and Energy (DGTREN) of the European Commission. This project aims to promote the use of... view more... (2002-01-10)
The light and dark of Venus
Venus Express has revealed a planet of extraordinarily changeable and extremely large-scale weather. Bright hazes appear in a matter of days, reaching from the south pole to the low southern latitudes and disappearing just as quickly. view more (2008-02-22)
Launch Of Human Orrery
The Armagh Observatory's 'Human Orrery' is the first large outdoor exhibit in the world to show accurately the elliptical orbits and changing relative positions of the planets and other solar system bodies with time. It has been constructed with the support of the Northern Ireland Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure (DCAL) and is the first... view more... (2004-11-22)
Primitive asteroids in the main asteroid belt may have formed far from the sun
Many of the objects found today in the asteroid belt located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter may have formed in the outermost reaches of the solar system. view more (2009-07-16)
IBEX discovers that galactic magnetic fields may control the boundaries of our solar system
The first all-sky maps developed by NASA's Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) spacecraft, the initial mission to examine the global interactions occurring at the edge of the solar system, suggest that the galactic magnetic fields had a far greater impact on Earth's history than previously conceived, and the future of our planet and others may... view more...

Neutrinos galore - an old problem, a new challenge - The Physics Congress 2002
Neutrinos - probably the most baffling forms of known matter in the Universe - are setting new challenges for physicists, just as one long-running mystery seems close to being resolved. On Wednesday 10 April, John Bahcall from the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, USA, will tell the Institute of Physics Congress in Brighton how we are at... view more... (2002-04-02)
Researchers Identify Driver for Near-Earth Space Weather
New findings indicate that the aurora and other near-Earth space weather are driven by the rate at which the Earth's and Sun's magnetic fields connect, or merge, and not by the solar wind's electric field as was previously assumed. view more (2006-12-12)
SMART-1 detects calcium on the Moon
Thanks to measurements by the D-CIXS X-ray spectrometer, ESA's SMART-1 spacecraft has made the first ever unambiguous remote-sensing detection of calcium on the Moon. view more (2005-06-08)
More safety for cell phone batteries
Fraunhofer researchers will be presenting a novel lithium-ion battery at Hannover Messe on April 21 - 25. It is based on a polymer electrolyte, which is - unlike the liquid electrolyte in conventional lithium-ion batteries - not inflammable. A test set-up for redox flow batteries will also be on display at the show. view more (2008-04-14)
NASA spacecraft show three dimensional anatomy of a solar storm
Twin NASA spacecraft have provided scientists with their first view of the speed, trajectory, and three-dimensional shape of powerful explosions from the sun known as coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. view more (2009-04-15)
Light sensor breakthrough could enhance digital cameras
New research by a team of University of Toronto scientists could lead to substantial advancements in the performance of a variety of electronic devices including digital cameras. view more (2009-06-19)
University helps reduce poverty through renewable energy
With the spotlight on World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg, the issue of fossil fuel use has become a pressing one. According to renewable energy specialists at Sheffield Hallam University, fossil fuels have only benefited the development of two thirds of the world’s population and the need to take advantage of already... view more...

A special issue on the International Workshop of the 2008 Solar Total Eclipse
On August 1, 2008 a total solar eclipse was visible within a narrow corridor that traversed from North America to China. view more (2009-11-02)
US satellite protection scheme could affect global communications
A proposed US system to protect satellites from solar storms or high-altitude nuclear detonations could cause side-effects that lead to radio communication blackouts, according to new research. view more (2006-08-15)
The search for ET just got easier
Astronomers using the Science and Technology Facilities Council's (STFC) William Herschel Telescope (WHT) on La Palma have confirmed an effective way to search the atmospheres of planets for signs of life, vastly improving our chances of finding alien life outside our solar system. view more (2009-06-11)
XMM-Newton uncovers a celestial Rosetta stone
ESA's XMM-Newton orbiting X-ray telescope has uncovered a celestial Rosetta stone: the first close-up of a white dwarf star, circling a companion star, that could explode into a particular kind of supernova in a few million years. view more (2009-09-04)
STEREO spacecraft arrives at NASA Goddard for final testing
The two Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) spacecraft arrive at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. on Nov. 9 for major testing as they near completion. view more (2005-11-10)
Beagle 2 Information Note: Next Stop Mars!
We have separation! That was the message from the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt, Germany, to announce that the British-built Beagle 2 spacecraft is now flying independently from its Mars Express "mother ship". Initial confirmation that the separation manoeuvre has been successful came at 10.42 GMT, when Mars... view more... (2003-12-19)
Signs of ideal surfing conditions spotted in ocean of solar wind
Researchers at the University of Warwick have found what could be the signal of ideal wave "surfing" conditions for individual particles within the massive turbulent ocean of the solar wind. view more (2009-08-31)
