Sunspot AR3184 erupted with an X1.9-class solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) captured the fireworks. The sunspot has been very active since it rotated into SDO's view. Credit: ...
The Polestar 4 is the world’s first mass production vehicle without a feature that most people would consider non-negotiable, ...
Sunspot 3912 erupted with an X2-class solar flare.NOAA's GOES-R satellite captures footage of the blast in multiple ...
Aisling O'Hare, who led the study, told Newsweek she's "excited" about what the science world can learn from the data.
The Sun goes through an 11-year cycle of activity, going from the solar maximum, where it is covered in many sunspots and is more likely to have flares and coronal mass ejections, to the minimum ...
During this, there is an increased number of sunspots, which means there's a greater chance of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and solar flares. These, in turn, can lead to the Northern Lights being ...
researchers have observed increasingly intense solar flares and coronal mass ejections erupting from the fiery orb. Increased solar activity causes auroras that dance around Earth’s poles ...
A study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters reveals new insights into the triggering mechanisms of solar microflares and the self-similarity of solar flares. The research was led by Prof.
The new research hints that powerful solar flares could become more common during upcoming solar maxima. This X9 magnitude blast occurred on Oct. 3, 2024, and was the sun's most powerful outburst ...
