James Webb Telescope Maps Uranus in 3D for the First Time; Data Reveals Hidden Storms, Methane Clouds
The James Webb Space Telescope has produced the first 3D map of Uranus’s upper atmosphere, tracking temperatures and ion densities up to 5,000 kilometers above its clouds. The observations reveal bright auroras shaped by the planet’s tilted magnetic field and confirm that Uranus is still slowly cooling over long timescales.

NASA’s GNEISS Mission Will Map Electric Currents Behind the Aurora
NASA’s GNEISS mission will launch from Alaska in early 2026 to probe the electric currents that drive auroras. Two rockets will fly through glowing auroral arcs, releasing sub-payloads whose radio signals act like a CT scan. By mapping electron density and direction, scientists aim to improve space weather forecasting and better protect satellite...

Scientists Track Rapidly Growing Sunspot Behind Intense Solar Storms Toward Earth
A rapidly expanding sunspot has transformed the Sun into a solar flare powerhouse, producing more than 20 mid-level flares and several extreme eruptions in just one day. As the region now faces Earth, scientists are tracking potential radio blackouts, satellite interference, and dazzling auroras caused by incoming solar storms.

Powerful X-Class Solar Flare Sends CME Toward Earth, Storms Possible
A powerful X1.9 solar flare erupted on January 18, launching a fast coronal mass ejection toward Earth. Space weather agencies warn of strong geomagnetic storms that could disrupt satellites, GPS and radio communications, while also producing vivid auroras visible well beyond the polar regions.
