Earlier this week, the number of visible sunspots on our home star fell to zero for the first time in 1,335 days. This ...

Scientists develop a forecasting system that predicts high-risk windows and regions for solar superflares, using 50 years of X-ray data and machine learning techniques.

The sun has been going wild over the last day or so. In just the past 24 hours, it has blasted out at least 18 M-class flares and three X-class flares. One of those, an X8.3 eruption, is the strongest ...

Researchers have proposed that changes in Earth's ionosphere could trigger electrical forces that nudge fragile areas of the crust into creating an earthquake.

Scientists have long studied the sun, our solar system’s life-giving star, trying to understand its behavior, solar flares, and how it affects Earth. While we all rely on the sun for warmth and light, ...

Researchers say a deadly earthquake in Japan and 2023’s most powerful solar flare occurring back-to-back can’t be a ...

Space scientists have announced that the Sun has fired four massive solar flares. The outbursts were captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory spacecraft, which monitors our star’s activity for ...

The Sun fired a staggering X1.9-class solar flare at the turn of the month, triggering a sudden, widespread radio blackout across Australia and large parts of southeast Asia and it seems like another ...
