Until now, the field had only been theorised, but a Nasa team, which includes scientists from the University of Leicester, has now sent a rocket into the field and measured it for the first time.

NASA scientists have discovered a planet-wide electric field surrounding Earth, confirming a 60-year-old hypothesis. Studying ...

but technology limitations prevented the detection of this hypothesized electric field until now. NASA’s suborbital Endurance rocket mission launched in May 2022 from Svalbard, between Norway ...

Tweed New Haven Regional Airport will be the first U.S. commercial airport to work with NASA researching power generation for ...

An international team of scientists at NASA and other institutions say they've discovered a weak, planet-wide electric field wrapping the Earth that was first hypothesized by researchers decades ago.

Lauren Mc Keown of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California said, “I love DUSTIE. It’s historic; the wine ...

The Europa Clipper spacecraft passed a key milestone on Monday and is on track to launch next month to explore and seek signs of habitability on one of Jupiter’s moons, according to NASA.

Scientists at NASA have uncovered evidence of a new electric field encircling Earth, a discovery that could shed light on the ...

NASA researchers affiliated with The Catholic University of America in Washington are part of an international team that has ...

NASA scientists have discovered a third global energy field around Earth. Known as the ambipolar electric field, this force drives charged particles into space above the poles. Two major global ...

A strange electric field around the Earth, long suspected to exist, has been detected for the very first time, and it is believed to cause a polar wind which launches particles into space at ...

scientists now say they have found a third field which is 'just as fundamental'. NASA researchers have found the first evidence of a subtle, almost undetectable electric field surrounding the planet.
