The agency expects a minor or greater geomagnetic storm—a disturbance of Earth’s magnetic field—on Saturday, which increases ...

Aurora chasers are on high alert for minor geomagnetic storm conditions from Jan. 24 through to Jan. 25. Northern lights might be visible over some northern and upper Midwest states.

Please join the Lowell Center for Space Science and Technology on Thursday, January 23 at 11 a.m. for a virtual talk by Chip Manchester Abstract: Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are magnetically driven ...

Two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) struck Earth’s magnetic field, causing geomagnetic storms that reached G3 levels on January 1. An X1.1-class solar flare on December 29, 2024, caused strong ...

Stars like our own Sun produce “superflares” around once every 100 years, surprising astronomers who had previously estimated ...

The sun is at the peak of its 11-year cycle. That means an uptick in solar flares will lead to more chances to see the northern lights over the next couple of years.

likely pulling the northern lights further south after forecasters warned about the lingering effects of a recent coronal mass ejection, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric ...

A minor geomagnetic storm is projected to impact Earth on Saturday and Sunday following the effects of a recent coronal mass ejection: plasma and magnetic field that is expelled from the sun.

The lights, also known as the aurora borealis, are set to appear as a huge coronal mass ejection (CME) strikes Earth. Usually, the Northern Lights are only seen in the auroral oval - a ring of ...
