Webb maps Uranus’s upper atmosphere, revealing cooling temperatures, shifting auroras, and the effects of its tilted magnetic field.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has captured the first vertical view of Uranus's upper atmosphere, delivering an unprecedented look at the planet's ionosphere and auroral structures.

Uranus does not behave like an ordinary planet. Its magnetic field tilts by nearly 60 degrees and sits off-center, so the charged particles that spark auroras do not gather in neat rings.

For the first time, an international team of astronomers have mapped the vertical structure of Uranus's upper atmosphere, uncovering how temperature and charged particles vary with height across the ...

The air around you isn't just empty space waiting to be filled. It's a dynamic, ever-shifting system that dictates whether you wake up to sunshine or storms. Every breath you take connects you to an ...

A new study says a federal climate report wrongly downplayed clear evidence of the human “fingerprint” on atmospheric warming.
