A powerful X7.1-class solar flare from sunspot AR3842 is heading toward Earth, likely triggering a G3-class geomagnetic storm ...

An M3-class solar flare that lasted about 3 hours created a massive coronal mass ejection. The Solar Dynamics Observatory ...

An immense hole in the Sun's atmosphere is facing directly at us, and the high energy particles streaming out of it are about ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Warped magnetic fields in the lower corona are what directly give rise to coronal mass ejections. When these stressed, unstable magnetic fields twist ...

The NASA/ESA Solar Orbiter recently recorded the highest-ever concentration of a rare helium isotope (3He) emitted from the sun. A Southwest Research Institute-led team of scientists sought the source ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. It’s incredible to think that the sun, roughly 93 million miles away, can mess with our power grids here on Earth and paint our ...

A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a large-scale eruptive solar phenomenon in which magnetized plasma from the Sun’s corona is expelled into interplanetary space, typically associated with magnetic ...

It’s incredible to think that the sun, roughly 93 million miles away, can mess with our power grids here on Earth and paint our night skies with ribbons of green and red. But that’s exactly what ...
