NASA’s Parker Solar Probe Observes Solar Wind Making ‘U-Turn’, Shedding Light on Space Weather

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe captured solar wind reversing toward the sun, revealing how magnetic fields recycle coronal material. This process, seen during a close flyby, helps refine models of space weather and may allow scientists to better predict solar storms that can impact satellites, communications, and power systems across the solar system.
