NOAA Coronal holes form in the outermost layer of the sun when the local magnetic field opens up, allowing the solar wind to escape at a much faster rate than usual. Because of this escaping ...
An increase in auroral activity is likely the result of expected geomagnetic storm conditions caused by a coronal hole high-speed ... so you'll always know the biggest stories shaping the day ...
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory just spotted a massive hole on the sun called a coronal hole. The hole appears black because it's cooler than its surroundings and is responsible for high-speed ...
The high-speed solar wind originating from this coronal hole, imaged here on Oct. 10, 2015, by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, created a geomagnetic storm near Earth that resulted in several ...
