Ferrofluid was invented by a NASA engineer in an attempt to develop a method for manipulating rocket fuel in zero gravity. This material creates an otherworldly pattern when exposed to a magnetic ...

Mars is the Red Planet, but turns out the moon has the makings of a reddish cast, too. Yes, scientists have found rust on the ...

Ferrofluid is a liquid with nano-sized iron particles that was developed by NASA in the 1960s. Artist Eric Mesplé has been experimenting with this magnetic liquid in his art for the past dozen ...

This New Liquid Is Magnetic, and Mesmerizing . ... In the 1960s, scientists at NASA discovered that some liquids could become magnetized in the presence of a strong magnetic field.

For the first time, NASA spacecraft have measured the strange interactions between the Sun’s and Earth’s magnetic fields that are linked to explosive space weather events high above our planet ...

Scientists have discovered an entirely new magnetic phenomenon in the outer reaches of Earth's magnetic field with the help of four NASA spacecraft, ... liquid or plasma," Shay said.

NASA's initiatives to pioneer next-generation space technologies are also hit hard in the White House's budget proposal. If the Trump administration gets its way, NASA's Space Technology Mission ...

NASA scientists are exploring the idea of putting a magnetic shield around Mars, in an attempt to restore the Red Planet's atmosphere and make it habitable. These days, Mars is arid and cold with ...
