NASA’s orbiter captures the first confirmed lightning evidence in Mars atmosphere
For decades, planetary scientists looked at the massive dust storms on Mars and wondered if they produced electricity. These storms can grow until they wrap around the entire planet, moving millions ...
Triggered by lightning in thunderstorms, whistler waves are radio waves that are channelled thousands of kilometres around the world via ducts in the magnetosphere. As Ian Randall reports, these ...
