Images captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory have revealed that "coronal loops" give off subtle flashes of ...

After witnessing the array of Northern Lights as far south as Colorado, we discuss how Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) are formed and what impact they have on Earth.

The Kodaikanal Solar Observatory (KSO), established in 1899, has made significant contributions to understanding solar ...

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.

The projects will provide a combined 300 megawatts of renewable energy generation and 225 megawatts of energy storage.

NASA has identified two types of auroras—fast-pulsating and flickering. Pulsating auroras flash on and off within seconds.

A coronal mass ejection earlier this week may pull the northern lights to more northern U.S. states, forecasters said.

A solar explosion called a coronal mass ejection is poised to graze Earth on Friday or Saturday (Jan. 24 or Jan. 25), ...
