Adam Sherwinski & Dave Leake teaches ciLiving host, Jaclyn Friedlander about solar flares Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation that erupt from the surface of the Sun, often near sunspots ...
For the study, the researchers modeled the influence of “flux ropes,” which are relatively smaller, tornado-like spirals of plasma and magnetic fields on the Sun. These ropes typically aren’t strong ...
Surya is the first foundation model for heliophysics, built by a team of heliophysicists and machine learning experts. It learns from solar images, magnetic field data, and velocity measurements to ...
Those space tornadoes can still harm Earth’s electrical grids and digital systems. Recently, researchers including UM climate and space scientist Chip Manchester designed a completely new simulation ...
Space weather isn’t referring to rain clouds that float through the galaxy. Instead, it’s caused by massive explosions of particles that shoot out from the Sun.
Space weather forecasting is decades behind Earth’s meteorology. Learn what makes auroras so unpredictable—and the real-time tricks aurora chasers use to catch them.

A continued active period for Geomagnetic activity could bring the Northern Lights as far south as New York state.
NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center has issued a G3 (strong) geomagnetic storm watch for October 2, which significantly increases the chances of seeing the northern lights much farther down south ...
Aurora fans have been treated to a bright display lighting up the skies, with photographers capturing the lights across the South Island on Wednesday night. Photographers posted pictures of the ...
