An eerie new video from ESA's Solar Orbiter shows a towering 'cyclone' of plasma exhibiting behaviors never seen before on ...

After last week's explosive X-flare, sunspot AR4046 is at it again! Could this latest eruption bring stormy space weather to Earth?

The Sun has thrown out a powerful solar flare – and there is probably more to come. Our star is currently at the “solar maximum”, the most active part of the 11-year cycle over which it becomes more ...

Even if the specific monthly peak of the cycle has passed, it doesn't mean solar activity is over. Strong solar activity ...

If using a regular camera, photography experts told National Geographic to use wide-angle lenses, an aperture or F-stop of ...

Dailymotion Sun Blasts Strong M9.8-Class Flare CME Earth-Directed Posted: March 11, 2025 | Last updated: March 11, 2025 Sunspot AR3500 blasted a M9.8-class solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics ...

Solar flares are bursts of radiation from the sun’s surface, sometimes followed by a bubble of magnetized plasma particles called a coronal mass ejection (CME). If they happen to spray out in ...

An international team, including an Oregon State University astrophysicist, has confirmed a 19-year-old theory on solar flare formation by observing “slip-running” reconnections of the sun’s magnetic ...

Aditya-L1’s SUIT detects a solar flare kernel in near-UV for the first Observations confirm energy transfer across different solar layers Findings published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters ...

The sun also produces powerful solar flares and coronal mass ejections that trigger geomagnetic storms, which lead to northern lights here on Earth. This year's solar maximum is expected to be ...

And while associating earthquakes with solar or lunar activity might sound like a conspiracy theory, recent research suggests a possible link between the Sun’s heat and seismic activity.
