HOW MANY TIMES LARGER THAN THE SUN WAS THIS... CORONAL MASS EJECTION?show more

A CME is a Coronal Mass Ejection by the... sun. This was triggered after 3IATLAS took its course around the sun.show more

An incredible coronal mass ejection from the Sun with... Earth for scale. 📽: NASA​/​SDOshow more

Here we observe the solar eclipse from geostationary orbit... (GOES-19) followed by a very large coronal mass ejection from the right side of the Sun. Cool!show more

Did you catch the #auroras this week? NOAA's satellites... certainly saw an eyeful when a powerful coronal mass ejection (#CME) erupted from the sun last Sunday! ☀️ Learn more in our #SatelliteSnapshot :show more

Today a coronal mass ejection launched from the Sun... towards Earth and the northern flank is expected to impact us around July 28th. Here is the awesome visualizer used:show more

A combination of fast solar winds and the recent... arrival of a Coronal Mass Ejection from the sun, could lead to the #aurora being seen tonight, especially across the north of the UKshow more

The Perseid meteor shower peaks tonight and viewing conditions... will generally be good, with clear skies for many of us and perhaps as many as 100 meteors every hour 🌠 A coronal mass ejection from the sun may also given an enhanced chance of seeing the aurora in northern areasshow more

A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) that left the Sun... late on the 22nd November is expected to arrive this evening and overnight #Aurora may become visible across parts of northern Scotland and similar latitudes, dependent on the exact timing of the arrival of the enhancementsshow more

On November 7, 2024, the sun ejected a massive... plasma in a phenomenon known as a coronal mass ejection. Captured by specialized space observatories, the footage shows the sun's magnetic fields twisting and snapping, propelling plasma outwards in arcs.show more

The Parker Solar Probe is the only man-made object... to touch the sun! Watch as it passes through a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). The probe is equipped with a heat shield made of carbon-carbon composite, able to withstand 2,500° F.show more

It rains on the Sun, too This coronal rain... was captured using an amateur telescope in Israel.show more

.NOAA's #SpaceWeather Prediction Center has issued a G3 (Strong)... Geomagnetic Storm Watch for April 16, after a coronal mass ejection (#CME) erupted from the sun last Sunday. The Solar Ultraviolet Imager (#SUVI) onboard NOAA's #GOESEast 🛰️ captured the Earth-directed double filament eruption. NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center #GOES19show more

Development of sunspot group 4366. A complex 'bad actor'... that produces many strong to very strong flares, but so far only one very slow coronal mass ejection. It mainly fires blanks. The animation shows the sun's photospheric magnetic field (the 'surface' field), sunspots and flares.show more

Some of us could end Boxing Day with a... glistening sky display ✨ The aurora may be enhanced tonight due to a coronal hole high speed stream and a coronal mass ejection Northern Scotland, plus perhaps central and southern Scotland, may see the aurora in any clear intervalsshow more

More solar storms are coming in, with impacts expected... the beginning of Nov. 10th and 12th universal time. Here is NOAA's space weather model for the coronal mass ejection launched by the 1.7 X-flare today Nov. 9th. #SpaceWeathershow more

A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is expected to arrive... today, giving increased geomagnetic activity and potential Aurora sightings 🤩 The best chance of seeing the lights will be across Scotland where skies are clear and the Aurora is strongestshow more

The Sun is absolutely COOKING right now. 1 X-flare... and 10 M-flares in less than 16 hours, and this still looks like preliminary activity to stronger solar flares and big coronal mass ejections as active region 4366 has grown significantly since my last update. BOOMSHAKALAKA!!show more

Double trouble! Over the past few hours, two *significantly*-sized... coronal mass ejections erupted from the back side of the Sun. Are the two eruptions directed related, or just a coincidence? Sadly we have no spacecraft behind the Sun to answer that question. #astronomyshow more

👀 You may see the northern lights this evening... and overnight due to a Coronal Mass Ejection Despite it's imminent arrival there's considerable uncertainty and it may only glance Earth. If it arrives, aurora could be spotted as far south as northern England if skies are clear.show more

Yesterday’s moderately-sized (M8-class) #SolarFlare produced a massive eruption (a... coronal mass ejection), currently en route to Earth. Forecasters have issued a ‘severe’ geomagnetic storm watch (G4 on G1-5 scale). Expect to see misinformation about this, so here are some facts:show more
