ESA’s Solar Orbiter Reveals How Magnetic Avalanches Trigger Solar Flares
New observations from ESA’s Solar Orbiter show that solar flares can be triggered by cascading magnetic disturbances. During a close solar pass, the spacecraft captured fine details of twisted magnetic fields repeatedly breaking and reconnecting, creating a magnetic “avalanche” that amplified a small instability into a powerful flare. The fin...

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.

NASA’s PUNCH Mission Provides First Continuous Views of Solar Eruptions Across Space
NASA’s PUNCH mission released images tracking solar eruptions from the Sun’s corona into interplanetary space. The data reveals CMEs and solar wind dynamics and supports better space weather forecasting for Earth and beyond.

With The Sun Nearing Its Peak, Aditya-L1 Prepares For Fierce Coronal Mass Ejections
Although CMEs do not directly harm humans, their impact on technological infrastructure can be severe.

Stealth Solar Storm Hits Earth, Leaves Scientists Surprised
Stealth CMEs are typically more common when the Sun is in the waning phase of its 11-year solar activity cycle.

Astronomers Record First-Ever Massive Stellar Blast Capable Of Stripping Planetary Atmospheres
This event originated from a red dwarf star, which is much dimmer, cooler, and smaller than the Sun.

Intense Solar Storm With Huge CMEs Forced Astronauts to Take Shelter on the ISS
A major solar storm in mid-November 2025 dazzled Earth with vivid auroras but forced astronauts on the ISS to take radiation precautions. Russian cosmonauts sheltered in the station’s heavily protected Destiny lab, while other crew members stayed in shielded quarters as controllers limited access to higher-risk modules during the event.

Astronomers Spot First Coronal Mass Ejection from a Distant Star, Raising Questions About Planetary Habitability
Astronomers detected the first coronal mass ejection from a distant star, revealing that powerful stellar eruptions may strip atmospheres from nearby planets, affecting exoplanet habitability and the search for life.

Sun Unleashes Strongest Flare of 2025, Causing Global Radio Blackouts
On Nov. 11, 2025, the Sun erupted with an X5.1-class flare, disrupting shortwave communications across Africa and Europe. The flare’s X-rays and UV radiation ionized Earth’s upper atmosphere, causing R3-level radio blackouts. NOAA warned that a coronal mass ejection could reach Earth on Nov. 12, potentially triggering strong geomagnetic storms ...

Chandrayaan-2 Makes First Ever Obseravtion Of Sun's Impact On Moon: ISRO
The Chandrayaan-2 mission, launched in 2019, has made the first-ever observation of the effects of the Sun's Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) on the Moon using its onboard scientific instruments, ISRO said on Saturday.
