A new study suggests lunar soil contains elements that solar wind transported to the moon from Earth’s atmosphere, solving a ...

Earth’s atmosphere is slowly leaking into space, and new research shows some of it reaches the Moon, where it may be ...

Despite the absence of a global Earth-like magnetic dipole, the Martian atmosphere is well protected from the effects of the solar wind on ion escape from the planet. New research shows this using ...

NASA’s Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission has identified the process that appears to have played a key role in the transition of the Martian climate from an early, warm and wet ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Weather forecasters talk about wind shear a lot during hurricane season, but what exactly is it? I teach meteorology at Georgia ...

Four billion years ago, Mars’ fate was sealed deep within its core. When the planet’s once-vigorous magnetic dynamo sputtered out, the invisible shield that had protected its thick atmosphere from the ...

Atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) are derived estimates of wind velocity obtained by tracking the motion of identifiable features, most commonly cloud elements, in sequential satellite imagery. The ...
