A moderate solar flare measuring M2.2 at its peak time erupted from a departing Region 2257 ('beta-gamma') on January 14, 2015. The event started at 12:30, peaked at 12:58 and ended at 13:08 UTC.This region was responsible for two M-class solar flares yesterday
A strong solar flare measuring M5.6 (R2 – Moderate radio blackout) erupted from Active Region 2257 at 04:24 UTC on January 13, 2015. The event started at 04:13 and ended at 04:38 UTC.A 10cm Radio Burst lasting 4 minutes, with peak flux of 290 sfu, was associated with th
Our planet is still under the influence of coronal hole high speed solar wind speed (CH HSS) which is fueling geomagnetic storming around the poles. Additionally, an unanticipated Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) passed the ACE spacecraft and Earth around 05:30 UTC today
Earth is currently under the influence of a high speed solar wind stream originating in large southern coronal hole. Although the bulk of this stream is headed south of our planet, we have already experienced severe geomagnetic storm periods at high latitudes.Geomagneti
Large Active Region 2253 (beta-gamma) erupted with moderate M1.3 solar flare at 15:35 UTC on January 4, 2015. The event started at 15:18 and ended at 15:53 UTC. Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) signatures were not detected during this event.This region slightly grew during l
Earth is currently under the influence of a coronal hole high speed solar wind stream (CH HSS) which is causing geomagnetic storming around the poles.K-index of 5 (G1-Minor) threshold was reached at 17:18 UTC today. Area of impact is primarily poleward of 60 degrees Geo
A moderate solar flare measuring M2.2 at its peak time erupted from Active Region 2249 at 02:16 UTC on December 27, 2014. The event started at 02:03 and ended at 02:24 UTC.Region 2249 has 'beta-gamma' magnetic configuration, it is still growing and is located ne
According to the SWPC, the ACE satellite observed a pair of discontinuities in the solar wind field during the past 24 hours. The first discontinuity at 02:35 UTC on December 21 was weak and possibly indicated the arrival of a glancing blow from the December 17th Corona
A major solar flare measuring X1.8 (R3-Strong Radio blackout) at its peak time erupted from Region 2242 ('beta-gamma-delta') at 00:28 UTC on December 20, 2014. The event started at 00:11 and ended at 00:55 UTC.A Type II radio emission with an estimated velocity
Auroras are the most visible manifestation of the Sun’s effect on Earth, but many aspects of these spectacular displays are still poorly understood. Thanks to ESA’s Cluster and NASA’s Image satellites working together, a particular type of very high-la
