Scientists Finally Discover How Long a Day Lasts on Uranus
Astronomers confirm Uranus’ rotation period using internal oscillation modeling for the first time. On Uranus, a day just lasts far longer. More precise rotational time observations of the gas giant should enable scientists to plan visits to investigate it. Unlike on Mars and Earth, savage windstorms make it far more difficult to identify the rot...

Study Identifies Plasma Formation as a Pseudostreamer
ESA’s Solar Orbiter recorded a giant plasma structure extending millions of kilometres from the Sun’s surface. The footage, taken on October 12, 2022, shows a swirling motion in the solar wind, a phenomenon never observed before. Scientists identified the formation as a pseudostreamer caused by a solar flare near the Sun’s north pole. The pla...

James Webb Telescope Captures Neptune’s Auroras in Stunning Detail
The James Webb Space Telescope has provided the first-ever direct images of Neptune’s auroras, revealing surprising details about the ice giant’s atmosphere. Unlike auroras on Earth, Jupiter, or Saturn, Neptune’s auroras appear across unexpected locations due to its tilted and offset magnetic field. Scientists also detected the presence of H...

Red Giant XX Trianguli Has Massive Starspots, Dubbed the 'Most Spotted Star in the Sky'
Massive starspots have been observed on the red giant star XX Trianguli, located 630 light-years from Earth. These starspots, larger than the sun's entire surface, make XX Trianguli the "most spotted star in the sky." Researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam and HUN-REN RCAES discovered that the star's internal magnetic dynam...
