NASA’s 2024 Solar Eclipse Studies Offer Key Insights on Sun-Earth Interactions
NASA’s April 8, 2024, solar eclipse studies highlight the Sun's effects on Earth’s atmosphere, including corona changes, ionospheric impacts, and atmospheric gravity waves. Data from citizen scientists and research teams deepened the understanding of these interactions, as presented during the American Geophysical Union's annual meeting. Key fi...

X-Class Solar Flare From Sunspot 3912 Causes Radio Blackouts in Southern Africa
A powerful X-class solar flare erupted from sunspot region 3912 on December 8, disrupting high-frequency radio communications in southern Africa. The flare, accompanied by a coronal mass ejection (CME), ionised Earth’s upper atmosphere, absorbing radio signals and causing blackouts in areas exposed to peak solar activity. Experts predict the CME ...

New Research Investigates Whether TRAPPIST-1 Planets Are Sending Radio Signals
A team of astronomers from Penn State and the SETI Institute has conducted a significant study on the TRAPPIST-1 star system, aiming to detect possible radio signals between its planets. Over 28 hours, they explored for indications of communication similar to those we use on Earth. Although no signals were found, the research highlighted promising ...

Scientists Scan TRAPPIST-1 for Interplanetary Radio Signal Using Allen Telescope Array
Scientists at Penn State and the SETI Institute have developed a new method to search for interplanetary radio signals from planets in the TRAPPIST-1 system. Using the Allen Telescope Array, they scanned this system for nearly 28 hours but did not find evidence of alien communication. This project, however, has introduced a new way of detecting pot...

Severe Solar Storm Warning: NOAA Predicts Auroras Across US, Possible Power Grid Impact
NOAA has issued a warning for a severe solar storm expected to hit Earth on October 10-11, 2024. This storm, classified as G4, is caused by a coronal mass ejection from the sun, travelling at nearly 2.9 million miles per hour. It has the potential to disrupt power grids, radio communications, and satellites. Additionally, the storm could enhance au...

Earth Braces for Impact as Sun Releases Powerful X-Class Solar Flare
On October 3, the sun emitted its most powerful solar flare of the current cycle, an X9.05 eruption. This flare, originating from the sunspot group AR3842, caused shortwave radio blackouts over Europe and Africa. Additionally, a coronal mass ejection (CME) is expected to arrive on Earth between October 3 and October 5, potentially enhancing auroras...

X-Class Solar Flare Erupts on the Sun, Earth-Directed CME Might Have Been Released
A powerful X1.3-class solar flare erupted from the sun on 12 September 2024, potentially boosting aurora visibility across the US this weekend. The flare, which caused a geomagnetic storm rated at G3, also disrupted radio signals in various regions. NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center is closely monitoring this solar activity as more flares ar...

NASA Explains How Intense Geomagnetic Storms Lead to Stunning Auroras
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has issued a warning about an intense geomagnetic storm at level G4, which is likely to disrupt power grids, GPS, and radio signals. Despite these potential issues, the storm offers a remarkable visual treat with colourful auroras visible in high-latitude areas of Canada and the United Stat...
