Earth remains under the influence of an October 5th coronal mass ejection (CME). Currently, G2 (Moderate) geomagnetic storm level (Kp=6) is in progress. At G2 level high-latitude power systems may experience voltage alarms, long-duration storms may cause
Moderate solar activity has been observed during the past 24 hours. M2.3 solar flare was triggered by an Active Region behind the eastern limb around 11:17 UTC. Three C flares occurred during the day producing two CMEs, observed by LASCO C2/C3 coming off the east
An M-class solar flare erupted on October 8, 2012 at 11:17 UTC. The event started at 11:05, peaked at 11:17 and ended at 11:23 UTC. The source of this flare is probably a new region on Sun’s northeastern limb rotating into Earth’s view. Coronal Mass Ejection (CME)
The ACE Spacecraft detected a sudden solar wind increase to over 400 km/s at 04:30 UTC. A weak coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth’s magnetic field on Oct. 8th at approximately 05:00 UTC. 15 minutes after A Geomagnetic Sudden Impulse (21 nT) was registered.Low
Sunspot 1583 on the western limb produced an M1.3 flare on Sept. 30 at 04:33 UTC. Region 1583 had grown rapidly in the past 24 hours, however it is only hours away from rotating off the solar disk and out of view. SIDC and NOAA/SWPC expect mostly eruptive conditions
Sunspot 1577 generated a long duration C3.7 solar flare which hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) almost directly toward Earth on September 28. Proton levels reached the S1 Minor Radiation Storm level soon after the event. The proton event linked to the C3.7 flare
A long duration C3 class solar flare erupted from Active Region 11577 peaking at 23:55 UTC September 27, 2012. The flare has produced a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) which is expected to impact the Earth’s magnetic field sometime late September 29, 2012. Proton levels
Solar activity was at low levels. The largest event during last 48 hours was a long duration C1 solar flare with a large prominence erupted on September 23 around 15:56 UTC from an area behind the eastern limb. It produces CME cloud with no threat to Earth.Some
At least three large CME clouds were observed during last 24 hours but all of them were at far side so there is no danger for Earth, they are heading away from our planet. Old Sunspot 1564 was probably source of the flares. STEREO Behind COR2 recorded bright flash with
Temperature on mars is cooler than what it might appear in those high-resolution pictures sent by curiosity. Weather station data aboard Mars Science Laboratory reveals that desert-like terrain of Gale crater which resembles barren lands of American southwest, is
