Scientists have long struggled to accurately predict solar flares, but a recent breakthrough using NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory has uncovered a promising new sign: flickering coronal loops. These ...

Images captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory have revealed that "coronal loops" give off subtle flashes of ...

As the sun geared up to spit a powerful solar flare into space, NASA scientists snapped huge loops of plasma leaping from the sun's surface. These spectacular solar structures, known as coronal ...

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured an X1.1-class solar flare in multiple wavelengths. See time-lapse footage of the ...

There were significantly more X-class solar flares in 2024 than any other year for at least three decades. The arrival of solar maximum was a key reason for the spike, but other factors were also at ...

Now, using NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, one team has identified flickering loops in the solar atmosphere (corona) that seem to signal when the sun is about to unleash a large flare.

The 2024 event was a great, and unusual opportunity to test the AI capability to predict solar activity. The chief objective ...

In May 2024, an epic solar storm rattled Earth so powerfully that its effects were felt even at the bottom of the ocean.

Improving Space Weather Predictions Flickering patterns in coronal loops may signal solar flares 2 to 6 hours before they happen. The team suggests this method is more accurate than previous ...

Nasa is preparing to launch a groundbreaking mission to solve some of the biggest mysteries of the Sun and its impact on the ...
