Astronomers Report The Biggest Black Hole Flare Ever Seen, With Light Of 10 Trillion Suns
The observed black hole flare is believed to be the largest and most distant one ever recorded, coming from 10 billion light-years away.

Northern Lights Could Be Visible in These US States Tonight, How To See Them
The northern lights are caused by geomagnetic storms, which occur when charged particles from the sun collide with gases in Earth's atmosphere, creating brilliant waves of light in the sky.

Semi-Transparent Solar Cells Break Records, Promise Energy-Generating Windows and Facades
Semi-transparent solar cells are reshaping renewable energy in urban environments. Developed by Hong Kong Polytechnic University, these ST-OPVs reach 6.05% efficiency and can be integrated into windows and facades without affecting natural light.

Cambridge Team Uncovers Unexpected Quantum Behaviour in Non-Metal Organic Molecule
Cambridge scientists have made a major leap in solar innovation by discovering a quantum effect in an organic molecule, P3TTM. This new material can convert light into electricity with unprecedented efficiency, potentially leading to the next generation of lightweight, flexible, and cost-effective solar power systems.

Solar Storm From Four Sun Eruptions Could Cause Minor Geomagnetic Activity
A burst of solar activity could soon paint Earth’s skies with auroras. Between October 11 and 13, the Sun fired four coronal mass ejections toward Earth, expected to arrive October 15–17. NOAA predicts mild G1 geomagnetic storms that could trigger colorful northern lights visible across high and even mid-latitude regions.

Scientists May Finally Explain Mysterious Crown-Like Features on Venus
Venus’ distinctive crown-like coronae may be explained by heat trapped beneath a rigid mantle layer, according to recent studies. This discovery provides key insights into the planet’s geological activity and helps researchers compare Venus’ surface evolution to that of other planets in our solar system

NASA Prepares 2025 Carruthers Mission to Explore Earth’s Hidden Hydrogen Halo
NASA’s Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, launching in 2025, will capture ultraviolet light from hydrogen atoms to map Earth’s faint geocorona. Operating a million miles sunward, it will study how solar activity drives atmospheric loss, improves satellite protection, and reveals clues to planetary habitability, providing critical insight for fut...

Hidden Magnetic 'Island' Sparks Solar Storm, Brings Northern Lights To US Skies. See Pics
Initially, the forecasters predicted minor to moderate (G1-G2) storms, but the hidden island turned it into a strong G3 storm.

New Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Could Reveal Secrets of Distant Worlds
Astronomers have confirmed the arrival of 3I/ATLAS, only the third interstellar object ever spotted in our solar system. First seen on July 1, 2025, by the ATLAS survey team in Chile, it was quickly identified by its unusual hyperbolic orbit and comet-like tail. Larger and brighter than either 1I/ʻOumuamua or 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS is estimated to b...

NSF’s DKIST Captures Sharpest-Ever Images of Fine Solar Magnetic Striations
Using the NSF’s Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, scientists have captured the most detailed views of the Sun’s surface ever recorded. The new observations reveal ultra-narrow magnetic striations only 20 kilometers wide, etched into solar granules. These light and dark bands reflect subtle variations in magnetic field strength. Researchers say ...

Aurora Alert! Northern Lights May Be Visible as Far South as New York on June 14
A moderate G2 geomagnetic storm on June 14 could push auroras as far south as New York and Idaho, triggered by solar wind from a coronal hole. NOAA forecasts peak geomagnetic activity with a Kp index of 5.67. While increased daylight may limit visibility, skywatchers are advised to look out for northern lights during early morning hours.

NASA Delays SPHEREx and PUNCH Missions Due to SpaceX Vehicle Checks
NASA’s planned launch of the SPHEREx and PUNCH missions aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket has been postponed. Originally set for March 8 at Vandenberg Space Force Base, the launch was delayed as SpaceX conducts additional vehicle checkouts. SPHEREx will focus on mapping the universe using infrared light, while PUNCH will examine solar wind and coro...

Solar Storm to Trigger Northern Lights in US: Visibility, Timing & Impact
A solar storm is expected to reach Earth tonight, potentially creating auroras visible as far south as New York and Idaho. The Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) of NOAA forecasts a G1-class geomagnetic storm, with a possibility of stronger G2 conditions. This may lead to disruptions in GPS and radio signals. The best time to witness the northe...
