In a record-breaking discovery, scientists detected our very own sun emitting an extraordinary ... a big deal as it marks the highest-energy radiation to ever be documented coming from our ...

Myth #2: A beach umbrella blocks the sun. Reality: It’s not foolproof. Sand reflects 17 percent of UV radiation, so you’re still exposed, says Dr. Weinstock. Nevertheless, it’s smart to stay ...

So when the moon interacts with both the Earth and the sun, the solar interaction is stronger. Of course, the motion of the moon depends on the sum of these forces. Look at this diagram of the ...

Researchers suggest that dimming the sun's rays by reflecting a fraction of solar radiation could potentially help lower surface temperatures and potentially mitigate extreme heat events.

There's not really anything to fear from the solar eruptions that are now taking place off the surface of our closest star otherwise known as The Sun, but a radiation storm literally hurling ...

What triggered that planetary shuffle has been unknown. Now, computer simulations suggest that the hot radiation of the young sun evaporating its planet-forming disk of gas and dust led to the ...

A FEW months ago I sent to the National Review a paper, which the editors kindly inserted, on the sun's radiation of heat. So far as I am aware, my theory has been completely ignored by those best ...

The main risk comes from ultraviolet (UV) light, which the Sun emits alongside visible radiation. This can increase the chances of skin cancer—the number of diagnoses of which are rising—as ...
