Solar Missions in 2025: Heliophysics Projects and Spacecrafts That Will Study the Sun
The study of the sun, its activity, and effects across the solar system will advance in 2025. With Solar Cycle 25 peaking, six NASA missions planned, and new research priorities outlined, scientists are poised to address long-standing questions about solar dynamics and their impacts. Missions such as IMAP, ESCAPADE, and PUNCH will investigate solar...

Solar Wind from Sun's Large Coronal Hole Could Create Auroras This Weekend
A powerful solar wind is expected to hit Earth this weekend, originating from a massive coronal hole in the sun’s atmosphere. This phenomenon could result in dazzling northern lights, particularly in high-latitude regions. NOAA has issued a G1 geomagnetic storm warning for January 4-5, forecasting heightened geomagnetic activity.

Common Noctule Bats Use Warm Winds to Migrate More Than 1000 km Across Europe, Claims Study
Researchers have tracked the migration of common noctule bats using lightweight transmitters, uncovering their remarkable ability to travel over 1000 kilometers in just a few days. These bats adapt their routes and timing based on environmental factors, such as tailwinds and warming weather conditions, to maximise efficiency. The study provides cri...

Polar Vortex Could Bring Freezing Temperatures to the US, Be the Coldest in a Decade
A polar vortex is expected to bring extreme cold and heavy snowstorms across the eastern United States. Temperatures could drop as much as 30°F below average, with some regions experiencing sub-freezing conditions as far south as Florida. The cold blast is set to affect areas like the Great Lakes, Northeast, and Appalachians, causing significant s...

NASA Confirms Successful Flyby of Parker Solar Probe, Completes Closest Sun Approach
NASA's Parker Solar Probe has set an unprecedented milestone, coming 3.8 million miles from the Sun at a speed of 430,000 mph. Launched in 2018, the spacecraft has utilised Venus flybys to perfect its orbit, enabling this historic feat. With advanced technology, it endures extreme temperatures, gathering critical data about solar wind and particle ...

What Time Is NASA's Parker Solar Probe Closest Sun Flyby on Christmas Eve?
On Dec. 24 at 6:53 a.m. EST, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe will achieve its closest flyby of the Sun at 3.8 million miles. The mission, part of a seven-year study, aims to uncover the mysteries of the Sun’s corona and solar wind. Travelling at 430,000 mph, the spacecraft is protected by a heat shield designed to withstand extreme temperatures. Upda...

Study Explores Sun’s Magnetic Field Changes and Solar Wind Acceleration
A study published in The Astrophysical Journal has shed light on how the Sun’s magnetic field influences solar wind acceleration. Using data from the Parker Solar Probe and Solar Orbiter, researchers observed that sharp magnetic switchbacks smooth out into gentler waves as they travel further from the Sun. This relaxation process transfers magnet...
