An international team of scientists, led by a Ph.D. researcher from Northumbria University, has made further discoveries about a spectacular feature of Jupiter's northern lights, revealing a ...

Imagine a Slushee composed of ammonia and water encased in a hard shell of water ice. Now picture these ice-encrusted slushballs, dubbed "mushballs," raining down like hailstones during a thunderstorm ...

North East researchers have used the James Webb Space Telescope to uncover unexpectedly complex behaviour in Jupiter’s northern lights.

A cross section of the upper atmosphere, or troposphere, of Jupiter, showing the depth of storms in a north-south swath that crosses the planet's equator, or equatorial zone (EZ). Blue and red ...

WASHINGTON -- Scientists said they have found evidence of water in the atmosphere of Jupiter's icy moon "Europa." NASA said its Hubble space telescope observed the presence of persistent water vapor ...

NASA's James Webb Telescope has captured auroras on Jupiter that have hundreds of times more energy than those here on Earth. Jupiter's auroras are like the "Northern Lights, but way bigger!" NASA ...

The weather forecast for Jupiter calls for clouds with a chance of lightning and "mushballs"—a slushy mix of ammonia and water encased in a hard water ice shell that rain down like hail here on Earth.

Collaborative work by amateur and professional astronomers has helped to resolve a long-standing misunderstanding about the composition of Jupiter's clouds. Instead of being formed of ammonia ice -- ...

It would appear that a really big storm on Jupiter can leave a noticeable mark in the planet's atmosphere. A recent study tapped into data collected by the Jupiter-orbiting spacecraft Juno and the ...
