A moderate solar flare reaching M5.06 took place at 18:51 UTC on October 22, 2012. The responsible Region was again 1598. The event started at 18:38, peaked at 18:51 and ended at 19:01 UTC.Space Weather Message Code: SUMXM5Serial Number: 99Issue Time: 2012 Oct 22
In this introductory lecture, Dr. Gerda Horneck of the DLR Institute of Aerospace Medicine in Cologne describes Astrobiology as a newly emerging field of science.Astrobiology comprises the study of the overall pattern of chemical evolution of potential precursors of
A chunk of meteor that exploded over Bay Area, California, was found in the backyard of Lisa Webber home on Sunday, October 21, 2012. Peter Jenniskens, a leading meteor hunter at the Seti Institute in Mountain View, confirmed that the space rock was indeed debris from

Solar activity ranged from low to high levels in last 7 days. Activity was low during October 15 – 19 due to mostly low-level C-class flares. The largest flare of this interval was a C7 on October 17, 2012 at 08:02 UTC from Region 1596 (N07, L=150, class/area
A moderate solar flare peaking at M1.38 erupted from emerging Region 1598 on October 21, 2012. This latest M-class eruption started at 19:46, peaked at 20:03 and ended at 20:20 UTC. Region 1598 was the source of yesterdays strong M9 solar flare and is moving into more
Researchers from the Department of Natural Sciences at Middlesex University in the U.K. have made a fascinating discovery concerning two natural “superfood” compounds and their ability to kill cancer cells. It turns out that both chokeberry extract (Aronia
A strong solar flare reaching M9.0 took place at 18:14 UTC on October 20, 2012. Sunspot that produced it is rotating into view off the eastern limb. Associated was Type II Radio Emission. Estimated velocity was 516 km/s. Coronal mass ejection (CME) was associated but
In an article named “UK experiences ‘weirdest’ weather” environment analyst Roger Harrabin (BBC) states that the driest spring for over a century gave way to the wettest recorded April to June in a dramatic turnaround never documented before. The scientists said
41 000 years ago, a complete and rapid reversal of the geomagnetic field occurred. As a consequence, the Earth nearly completely lost its protection shield against hard cosmic rays, leading to a significantly increased radiation exposure, a new study led by Dr
