The solar wind – a constant stream of particles and energy flowing from the Sun – was first theorized 65 years ago. But that doesn’t mean scientists have uncovered all its secrets. In fact, a fresh look at data from 12 NASA spacecraft is giving scientists a new perspective. Scientists have long known there’s a lot of variability in the solar wind. Some days huge bursts of particles are released by solar flares, and other days there can be little activity. But how does the solar wind behave on av

👉Fast streams of solar wind blasting out of a massive coronal hole on the Sun are stirring up Earth’s magnetic field, leading to increased geomagnetic activity and the chance of minor space weather effects. | Exploratory World
