I SPI With My Little Eye, A Planetary Magnetic Field?
How do cool stars vary in the ultraviolet? Why is that important for exoplaneteers to investigate? And what does this have to do with planetary magnetic fields?

Pulsating flares on M dwarfs can disrupt the atmospheres of exoplanets. However, in just the right amounts, they could be the genesis of primordial life. Today’s paper describes how!
