As we move into 2025, the field of space exploration is buzzing with exciting missions, new technologies, and a renewed focus ...

And in theory, there should be chorus waves in the magnetic field of every planet that has one, even if it’s a little messy ...

They originate in space, high above a planet’s equator, and they loosely follow the path of its magnetic field. Earth, Jupiter and Saturn are all known to host chorus waves, but now, in a paper ...

Peculiar bursts of energy called chorus waves have been detected in deep space far from our planet, suggesting they could pose problems for long-distance space travel ...

A scientific discovery that could transform the study of warp drive is now under wraps at the U.S. Defense Advanced Research ...

They’ve also been found around other planets with magnetic fields, such as Saturn and Jupiter. The leading idea suggests these waves are caused by plasma instability—ionized gas that’s ...

NASA's MMS mission discovered whistler-mode chorus waves in an unexpected region, the terrestrial mid-tail neutral sheet, revealing new insights into wave-particle dynamics. These findings challenge ...

NASA’s Juno spacecraft has uncovered an immense volcanic hot spot on Jupiter’s moon Io, surpassing any previously recorded ...

Moreover, chorus waves, already observed around planets like Jupiter and Saturn, could exist in other regions of space with a magnetic field. This hypothesis raises new questions about plasma physics ...

Chorus waves have also been spotted near other planets including Jupiter and Saturn ... waves were detected in a region where Earth's magnetic field is stretched out, which scientists didn ...
