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 ...

Sun Erupts with X2.3 Solar Flare, Causes Radio Blackouts
On November 6, 2024, sunspot AR 3883 unleashed a powerful X2.3 solar flare, causing radio blackouts in parts of South America and Africa. The flare, classified as a strong solar event, disrupted high-frequency radio signals. Scientists are awaiting data from NASA’s SOHO spacecraft to assess the potential impact of a coronal mass ejection (CME) on...

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...

Elon Musk’s Starlink Satellites Could Severely Damage Ground-Based Radio Telescopes, Says Study
Elon Musk's Starlink satellites are causing significant disruption for astronomers worldwide. Scientists from the Netherlands, particularly the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON), have reported that the growing network of Starlink satellites is interfering with radio waves used for vital space research. The satellites, designed to p...

Mysterious Radio Signals from Deep Space Reportedly Reached Earth After Eight Billion Years
Astronomers recently detected an extraordinary event – a deep space radio signal that took 8 billion years to reach Earth. The radio burst, named FRB 20220610A, is one of the most powerful and distant signals ever captured. Fast radio bursts (FRBs) like this are brief but incredibly strong, leaving scientists questioning their origins.

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...

Watch: Sun Unleashes Powerful Solar Flare, Disrupts Radio Signals In Australia, Japan
The flare, originating from sunspot AR3738, occurred late Saturday night (July 13) at 10:34 p.m. EDT (0234 UT on July 14), and was captured in stunning detail by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory.

Astronomers Detected 2 Major Targets With A Single Telescope- A Mysterious Signal And Source Galaxy
FRBs are immensely useful for studying the cosmos, from investigating the matter that makes up the universe, to even using them to constrain the Hubble constant the measure of how much the universe is expanding.

New Experiment May Let Astronomers 'See' the First Stars, Galaxies Through the Fog of the Early Universe
Researchers at Cambridge University have developed a method that allows detecting light from the earliest stars by peering through clouds of hydrogen. Astronomers have aimed to detect a signal that would be a thousand times weaker than other radio signals. Here, using a radio telescope to trace the signal would result in distortions in the observat...

Scientists Detect Mysterious Radio Signals Coming From Space
Astronomers have detected a strange radio signal coming from another galaxy, nearly 3 billion light-years away from Earth. This is the second time ever that such a repeating signal was detected by scientists.
