Those space tornadoes can still harm Earth’s electrical grids and digital systems. Recently, researchers including UM climate and space scientist Chip Manchester designed a completely new simulation ...

We unfortunately weren't the only ones impacted by dangerous tornadoes last week. Illinois saw a dangerous EF-4 twister that was on the ground long enough to where NASA captured it from space.

A new study published in The Astrophysical Journalis sounding the alarm about swirling solar wind structures that may pose an underestimated threat to Earth’s technological systems. Researchers have ...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has recently captured a breathtaking image of an energetic outflow from a developing star. While this structure’s official name is Herbig-Haro 49/50, scientists have ...

Weather forecasting is a powerful tool. During hurricane season, for instance, meteorologists create computer simulations to forecast how these destructive storms form and where they might travel, ...

NASA Michoud Assembly Facility director Keith Hefner (center) briefs emergency operations team members following the Feb. 7 tornado strike. The destructive power of the tornado that hit NASA's Michoud ...

A newborn star, a blast of glowing gas, and a distant spiral galaxy — all caught in one stunning snapshot by the James Webb Space Telescope. This rare cosmic overlap forms a swirling, colorful image ...

In this short NASA documentary, storm researcher Tim Samaras describes how satellite imaging can help predict tornadoes. Because it's unclear exactly how various weather conditions come together to ...
