Something strange is happening in the Milky Way’s magnetic field
SMRTR summary
Scientists using a new radio telescope in British Columbia have discovered that the Milky Way's magnetic field contains a mysterious diagonal reversal in the Sagittarius Arm, where the field flows counterclockwise while the rest of the galaxy flows clockwise. This breakthrough mapping reveals crucial details about our galaxy's invisible magnetic structure, which prevents gravitational collapse and helps scientists predict how the Milky Way will evolve over time.
