STEREO Ahead COR 2 recorded farside eruption that produced bright Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). A new active region transiting the farside will rotate into Earthside later this week.This CME was directed away from Earth and pose no danger to our
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
A pair of Coronal Mass Ejections are now visible in the latest STEREO Ahead COR2 images. The source of the first CME was located on the farside of the Sun. The second plasma cloud was the result of a filament liftoff near Sunspot 1450. The plasma cloud appears to be
Return of the Sunspot 1429 to Earth side is due in evening hours of March 28th by UTC, meaning further increase of an M-class event.Sunspot 1429 produced a number of significant and strong solar flares during mid March and is still very active. On March 26th
Old Sunspot 1429 continues to be active while transiting the farside of the Sun. This morning (March 21, 2012), AR1429 produced a solar flare which resulted in a bright Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). SOHO photographed the cloud expanding at 1550 km/s (3.5 million
Old sunspot AR1429 is still very active as it transits the far side of the sun. During the early hours of March 18th it produced a spectacular solar flare, blasted away from northwestern limb. Earth will not be affected by the CME cloud.Joint USAF/NOAA Report of
A disturbance is rippling through Earth’s polar magnetic field on March 1st. Bright auroras have been sighted in Sweden and Finland. Rob Stammes of the Polar Light Center in Lofoten reports about magnetometer needles start to swing. This magnetic storm came as a
NASA’s STEREO-Behind spacecraft observed a significant eruption on the farside of the sun today. Although the blast was eclipsed by the edge of the solar disk, it nevertheless produced a long-duration C3 solar flare detectable from Earth. The blast site is not far
Sunspot 1384, currently located just behind the sun’s western limb, erupted today around 14:45 UTC. It registered as a long duration C2.4 flare and it appears to be connected to magnetic filaments snaking over the horizon to the Earthside of the sun. This event
NASA’s STEREO probes are monitoring strong activity on the far side of the sun. A spectacular CME erupted during the early hours of April 8th apparently from old sunspot AR1176. This is the second day in a row that the active region has hurled massive clouds into
