An active solar cycle is increasing the chances of northern lights displays. Learn what drives auroras and how to read forecasts to improve your chances of seeing them.
A new solar forecast model predicts a period of intense superflare activity that overlaps with NASA's Artemis 2 mission, prompting scientists to call for a delay.
For the first time in over three years, the sun's surface appeared entirely spotless, signaling a potential shift as its current activity cycle begins to wane.
NASA has launched a series of sounding rockets into the aurora borealis from Alaska to study the complex electrical systems that power the northern lights.
A new theory from Kyoto University suggests a potential link between solar storms and earthquakes, where ionospheric changes could exert pressure on fragile fault lines.
An intensely active sunspot, AR 4366, has released another powerful X1.5 solar flare, its fifth major eruption in under a week. Forecasters are monitoring a potential Earth impact from a previous even
A new UK-led space mission called Mesom aims to create artificial solar eclipses using the Moon to better study the Sun's corona and improve space weather forecasts.
A G4 (Severe) geomagnetic storm watch is in effect for January 20, 2026, after a major solar eruption sent a coronal mass ejection directly toward Earth.
Heightened solar activity is triggering more frequent and intense northern lights displays, with recent solar storms pushing the aurora into lower latitudes.
Scientists have identified massive plasma rings around distant M dwarf stars that act as natural 'weather stations,' offering a new way to study exoplanet habitability.
The White House has announced a proposal to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), citing concerns over "climate alarmism."
A JetBlue flight's sudden altitude drop injured 15 passengers, with experts now questioning the official cause and pointing to cosmic rays from deep space.
