When you take a look at Mars, you probably wouldn't think that it looks like a nice place to live. It's dry, it's dusty, and there's practically no atmosphere. But some scientists think that Mars may have once looked like a much nicer place to live,
On this day, exactly 10 years ago, the largest ever recorded solar flare in history erupted from Sun's western limb. This mega flare started its historic eruption at 19:29 UTC from Active Region 10486 and peaked around 19:50 UTC.

According to Yellowstone Volcano Observatory monthly update, University of Utah reported 168 earthquakes in the Yellowstone National Park region during October 2013. The largest event was a minor earthquake of magnitude 2.9 on October 30, 2013 at 06:58 UTC,
According to satellite images taken by NASA's Terra MODIS another volcanic island emerged late October 2013 along Zubair Group of islands, Red Sea, as a result of ongoing underwater volcano eruption.
The new phase of eruption started on
Impulsive solar flare measuring M6.3 erupted on November 1, 2013 at 19:53 UTC. The source of this event is centered around AR 1884 located at the center of disk and very geoeffective.
A 10 cm Radio Burst (TenFlare) was associated with the
November 3, Hybrid Solar Eclipse. Annular total solar eclipse will sweep over the Atlantic Ocean and the middle of Africa on November 3, 2013. The eclipse will be total only along a narrow path over the Atlantic Ocean and equatorial Africa from
A very strong and shallow earthquake M 6.3 struck Taiwan at 12:02 UTC on October 31, 2013. USGS measured depth at 12 km, EMSC at 10 km. CWA Taiwan is reporting a magnitude of 6.3 at a depth of 20 km, still very dangerous but less dangerous than the USGS

A major solar flare reaching X2.3 peaked at 21:54 UTC on Tuesday, October 29, 2013. This event originated from AR 1875 located on the west limb. A Type IV Radio Emission, indicating a strong coronal mass ejection, was associated with the event but since
This movie shows 23 of the 26 M- and X-class flares on the Sun between 18:00 UTC on October 23 and 15:00 UTC on October 28, 2013, as captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. It also shows the coronal mass ejections, great clouds of solar
