Humanity is changing the near-space environment around Earth, NASA scientists have discovered, and we're not talking about all the space junk orbiting our planet. A type of radio communication known ...

NASA is launching a suborbital sounding rocket to study how radio waves escaping the Earth's ionosphere may be affecting orbital satellites. Scheduled for launch from the Wallops Island Flight ...

A group of five Talawanda high school seniors are building a VLF space antenna to monitor changes in ion activity in the atmosphere during the solar eclipse of August 21. Energy from the sun creates a ...

NASA’s Van Allen Probes have discovered some strange radio wave activity in the space around Earth. On Wednesday, NASA Goddard Space Center announced that the two probes had helped scientists identify ...

ISLAMABAD — Pakistan on Tuesday unveiled a very low frequency (VLF) communication facility that will enable it to communicate with deployed submarines. Mansoor Ahmed, a postdoctoral research fellow at ...

When it comes to the impact humans have had on the Earth, the evidence spans much further than just the surface, but also the outer space surrounding our lovely planet. Not only have we sent so much ...

The Earth's atmosphere bears precious little resemblance to what it looked like at the start of the Industrial Revolution. As radio technology has advanced and spread, the signals that transmitters ...

In California, a retired electrical engineer has revived an out-of-production sonar device that uses very low frequency, or VLF, radio waves to locate underground water, and, as recently as Feb. 15, ...

If humans had radio antennas instead of ears, we would hear a remarkable symphony of strange noises coming from our own planet. Scientists call them "tweeks," "whistlers" and "sferics." They sound ...

Scientists say NASA's Van Allen Probes have spotted a man- made barrier around the Earth that prevents high-energy space radiation from reaching the planet Exciting, sharp and clear analysis of the ...

Even as 5G looms, losing the signal on your phone seems like a headache that will never quite go away. Now, though, a new antenna design could take wireless communications to previously radio dead ...
