A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a significant ejection of plasma mass from the Sun's corona into the heliosphere. CMEs are often associated with solar flares and other forms of solar activity , but a broadly accepted theoretical understanding of these relationships has not been established.
English: Follow a coronal mass ejection as is passes Venus then Earth, and explore how the sun drives Earth's winds and oceans. Other languages Čeština: Sledování výronu koronální hmoty ze sluneční koróny , který prolétá kolem Venuše a dále naší planety Země a ukazuje, jak tímto způsobem Slunce ovlivňuje pozemskou ...
Earth tends to pull asteroids into partial or full orbits around it regularly before they are flung back out into space. For instance, one such space rock 2022 NX 1 was a short-lived “mini-moon ...
STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is a solar observation mission. [2] Two nearly identical spacecraft (STEREO-A, STEREO-B) were launched in 2006 into orbits around the Sun that cause them to respectively pull farther ahead of and fall gradually behind the Earth.
In planetary geology, the term "ejecta" includes debris ejected during the formation of an impact crater. When an object massive enough hits another object with enough force, it creates a shockwave that spreads out from the impact. The object breaks and excavates into the ground and rock, at the same time spraying material known as impact ejecta.
An example of space weather: Aurora australis in the Earth's atmosphere observed by Space Shuttle Discovery, May 1991. Space weather is the environmental condition within the Solar System, including the solar wind. It is studied especially surrounding the Earth, including conditions from the magnetosphere to the ionosphere and thermosphere.
The company sent its first two prototype satellites into space on Friday as part of Project Kuiper, its answer to SpaceX’s Starlink service.
