Due to the effects of a weak CME and ongoing high solar wind, unsettled to active conditions are possible this evening, Feb.
Increased solar wind and coronal mass ejections can lead to more intense and dynamic auroras.
Scientists say this powerful surge in solar activity could set the stage for the northern lights to appear as early as ...
The northern lights could be visible from the northern United States again on Tuesday, as a coronal mass ejection from the Sun is expected to arrive and cause strong geomagnetic storms. A coronal mass ...
Referred to as a “stealth storm,” a recent coronal mass ejection went undetected until it hit Earth. Stealth coronal mass ejections are more common after the Sun transitions from the solar maximum to ...
Solar flares are characterized by intense bursts of energy and radiation from the Sun’s surface. In a matter of just a few minutes, the material is heated to many millions of degrees. It produces a ...
The northern lights could be visible from states along the U.S.-Canadian border on Sunday night, forecasters at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said, as a coronal mass ejection ...
It’s incredible to think that the sun, roughly 93 million miles away, can mess with our power grids here on Earth and paint our night skies with ribbons of green and red. But that’s exactly what ...
A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a large-scale eruptive solar phenomenon in which magnetized plasma from the Sun’s corona is expelled into interplanetary space, typically associated with magnetic ...
A coronal mass ejection (CME) is an eruption of gas and plasma from the Sun. Solar physicists record a number of them each year. Fortunately, most head into space in directions away from Earth. When ...
After an X-class solar flare erupted on Feb. 1, a coronal mass ejection reached Earth sooner than expected, prompting ...
