By Knowledge - In ShortFrom BoclipsOctober 13, 2025
The Ulysses probe, launched in 1990, provided valuable insights into the Sun's polar regions and its solar wind. Equipped with various sensors, it captured data on solar wind particles, magnetic field strengths, and cosmic rays. The probe's findings, including the discovery of the sun's magnetic poles tilting during peak solar activity, have contributed to our understanding of solar weather and its impact on technology and Earth's climate.
