Earth is bracing for a series of solar storms this weekend after multiple eruptions from the sun. While one event has passed, at least three more are expected.
The European Space Agency's Henon CubeSat, a luggage-sized satellite, is set to become the first to operate independently in deep space to improve solar storm warnings.
The European Space Agency ran a complex simulation of a Carrington-level solar storm to test satellite defenses ahead of the Sentinel-1D mission launch.
A new high-resolution simulation reveals that current space weather models are too simple, potentially allowing dangerous solar storms to go undetected.
Researchers propose a new four-spacecraft fleet called SWIFT that could improve space weather warnings by 40% by detecting 'space tornadoes' missed by current systems.
A single SpaceX rocket has successfully launched three specialized satellites for NASA and NOAA to study solar storms and improve space weather forecasting.
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket has launched three scientific probes to study solar activity and improve space weather forecasting from the Lagrange 1 point.
NASA and NOAA are launching the SWFO-L1 satellite, a new observatory designed to provide earlier warnings of solar storms that can impact Earth's technology.
A surprise G3 geomagnetic storm, caused by a hidden magnetic feature on the sun, triggered stunning aurora displays visible across much of the United States.
