The unrelenting solar activity on the Sun is not just affecting the Earth but all the nearby planets as well. In October, it was reported that an intense coronal mass ejection (CME) cloud hit Venus and the strong electromagnetic fluctuation resulted in eroding some of its atmosphere which released into space. Now, a full halo …
Times Now Digital Updated Dec 5, 2023 | 12:17 PM IST NOAA has reduced its geomagnetic storm forecast from moderate (G2) levels to minor (G1) in response to a weaker-than-predicted solar wind emitted from a large coronal hole on the Sun. However, northern skywatchers should still watch for potential auroras. Moderate Solar Storm Watch Downgraded …
Incoming Solar Wind Prompts Forecasters to Call for Auroras This Week. (Photo Credit: NASA) Sun has a massive hole which has recently sent a persistent stream of solar wind towards Earth. As per a report of SpaceWeather.com, it is a Coronal hole, which is an area where the Sun’s magnetic field allows particles to escape …
The solar activity on Earth has intensified. Yesterday, December 1, it was reported that a second coronal mass ejection (CME) was headed for the Earth which could turn the ongoing solar storm even more intense, and exactly that happened. A few hours earlier, the second CME made an impact and sparked an incredibly powerful G3-class …
News Technology Science A ‘cannibal’ solar explosion could cause strong auroras tomorrow A “cannibal coronal mass ejection” could hit our planet on Friday, triggering auroras, even in places that usually do not get to see them.

On Sunday, a coronal mass ejection (CME) struck the Earth sparking a 15-hour-long solar storm that peaked at G2-class intensity. The impact was so strong that auroras were visible across most of Europe despite it being a moonlit night. As the planet is still recovering from it, NASA models have detected yet another CME that …
Yesterday, the NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) detected a coronal mass ejection (CME) that appeared to be coming towards the Earth. The early assessment revealed that it could hit the Earth in the late hours of November 11, although it wasn’t clear whether the strike would be a direct one or a glancing blow. …
It appears that the solar storm trouble for Earth is not going to end anytime soon. After already sparking a G3-class and a G1-class storm within a week, there is a possibility that another solar storm might be triggered soon. But unlike the previous two incidents, this one will not be caused by coronal mass …
A NASA spacecraft captured incredible imagery as it flew through an eruption from the sun recently. Pictures beamed back to scientists on Earth even show the fiery ejection “vacuuming up” space dust left over from the formation of the solar system. The fly-through by NASA’s Parker Solar Probe took place on September 5 and NASA …
