New research reveals that 'space tornadoes,' or flux ropes, can form between the Sun and Earth, creating a previously unknown source of geomagnetic storms.

A new high-resolution simulation reveals that current space weather models are too simple, potentially allowing dangerous solar storms to go undetected.

Researchers propose a new four-spacecraft fleet called SWIFT that could improve space weather warnings by 40% by detecting 'space tornadoes' missed by current systems.

A new study proposes a four-spacecraft constellation, using a solar sail, to detect dangerous 'space tornadoes' that current warning systems can miss.
