NASA THEMIS satellites change solar storm theory
Written By: William Atkins

The THEMIS discovery changes how scientists think about charged solar particles (plasma) from the Sun interacting with the magnetic field (magnetosphere) of the Earth. They can now more accurately measure the amount of energy released, which causes magnetic storms and intensifies auroras.

The Theia hypothesis goes STEREO
Written By: William Atkins

The Theia hypothesis, developed from the Giant Impact hypothesis, implies that the Moon was created when a Mars-sized planet (called Theia) crashed into the Earth 4.5 million years ago. Can we find Theia? The twin STEREO probes of NASA may piece together an answer.
