Elements (atoms) are not electrically neutral if they are ionized. There's a lot of ionization going on in stars (they're mostly plasma), in the stellar wind produced by stars, and in the planets that are impinged upon by the stellar wind from stars.

Sure. Solar wind.Ronie Bayron said:Bounded by space (vacuum), is there any chances a planet to be charged (either positive or negative) or discharge by any means?
Why?Ronie Bayron said:Yes, but total sum of opposing charges on a planetary scale is zero.
EM waves, or electromagnetic waves, are a form of energy that can travel through space. They are produced by the movement of charged particles and can have different wavelengths, such as radio waves, microwaves, and visible light. These waves can interact with the magnetic fields and atmospheres of planets, potentially influencing their behavior.
Scientists use specialized instruments, such as telescopes and radio antennas, to detect EM waves from other planetary systems. These instruments are designed to pick up specific wavelengths of EM waves and can provide valuable information about the composition and behavior of these systems.
In most cases, EM waves from other planetary systems are not harmful to Earth. The intensity of these waves decreases as they travel through space, and by the time they reach us, they are usually too weak to cause any harm. However, in rare cases, such as a powerful solar flare, EM waves can cause disruptions in our communication systems and power grids.
EM waves can play a crucial role in the formation of planetary systems. As stars form and planets begin to orbit them, the interaction between the magnetic field of the star and the protoplanetary disk can lead to the formation of planets. Additionally, EM waves can also affect the composition and movement of materials within the disk, influencing the types of planets that form in the system.
Yes, there are several known planetary systems that are heavily influenced by EM waves. For example, the TRAPPIST-1 system, which contains seven Earth-sized planets, is thought to be heavily affected by the intense EM radiation from its host star. This can impact the habitability of these planets and their potential for hosting life.
