Scientists have long assumed that there’s an upper limit to the intensity of the solar winds that reach Earth. New research ...
On July 3, 2026, a geomagnetic storm reached G3 intensity and pushed visible auroras across more than 30 U.S. states, catching forecasters and the public off guard. NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction ...
The Mars Curiosity rover had to weather a solar storm. Specks seen in the video the rover captured are "caused by charged ...
A gigantic solar eruption in November 2021 defied expectations. Two spacecraft—Solar Orbiter at 0.85 AU and Wind at 0.98 AU—watched the same coronal mass ejection (CME) as it zoomed through the solar ...
Solar storms may affect weather on Mars when they strike at the same time as major Martian dust storms, a new study suggests ...
For decades, researchers believed Earth's atmosphere had a ceiling on how hard it could react to the sun's most violent ...
If a massive solar storm capable of wiping out power grids across the U.S. was headed toward Earth, could there be a way to stop it? A group of scientists are trying to find an answer to that question ...
A solar storm is a sudden explosion of particles, energy, magnetic fields and material blasted into the solar system by the sun When directed towards earth they can create a disturbance in our ...
A proposed StormWall spacecraft fleet could release gas to weaken solar storms, protecting satellites, power grids and technology, but potentially reducing auroras.
A powerful solar storm is expected to strike Earth on June 8, potentially creating dazzling auroras, disrupting communications and giving scientists a rare opportunity to study space weather.
The northern lights could mean lights out for the infrastructure we rely on.
