We will also keep you informed of any significant space weather events such as coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and coronal holes which could bring strong aurora-sparking solar winds our way.

Another powerful coronal mass ejection (CME) erupted off the sun Friday. ... It's carried by the solar wind and travels up to speeds of 155 to 1800 miles per second.

Well, the sun’s to blame with occasional coronal mass ejections — large amounts of plasma discharged from the sun’s corona (outer atmosphere) carrying magnetic material at incredible outward ...

Geomagnetic storms are set to buffet the Earth tonight, potentially creating the breathtaking Norther Lights over parts of the U.S. A pair of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are expected to hit ...

Coronal mass ejections like the one captured in this video are not uncommon on the Sun, especially during our star’s current point of activity. The Sun follows an 11-year solar cycle, ...

On Christmas Eve, the shield likely faced temperatures up to 1,800 F (980 degrees C), ... when coronal mass ejections released by the sun were directed at our planet.

Coronal mass ejections are large clouds of ionized gas called plasma and magnetic fields that erupt from the sun’s outer atmosphere. ... “A solar storm in the 1800s ...

NASA has captured the moment a "cannibal" coronal mass ejection (CME) was launched from the surface of the sun on August 15 in incredible footage. Sunspot region 3078, which currently contains 13 ...

This peak in activity produces flares and coronal mass ejections, where charged particles ride along the Sun’s ever-flowing solar wind out into the Solar System — and sometimes strike Earth.

Yesterday, we saw amazing observations of a full halo coronal mass ejection release from the Sun, passing over comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, and continuing straight for Earth. It will slam ...

Coronal mass ejections from the sun, which are comprised of charged particles, head to the north and south poles. The stronger the coronal mass ejection is, the further south the lights will travel.
