Researcher Photographs Giant Solar Tornado and Massive Plasma Eruption at the Same Time
On August 20, researcher Maximilian Teodorescu captured a rare photo of two dramatic solar events — a giant tornado of plasma rising 130,000 km and an eruptive prominence spanning 200,000 km. Both were shaped by the sun’s unstable magnetic fields. While the prominence did release a CME, it is not aimed at Earth.

Rare Giant Solar Tornado and Plasma Eruption Captured Together on the Sun
A Romanian researcher captured a rare sight on the Sun — a giant solar tornado alongside a massive plasma eruption. Both events, driven by magnetic field changes, highlight the Sun’s extreme activity during solar maximum. Luckily, the eruption’s CME is not headed toward Earth.

Solar Eclipse On August 2, 2025? Know Truth Behind Viral Claims: Next Total Solar Eclipse Is On...
A solar eclipse is a rare and spectacular celestial event in which the Moon passes directly between the Earth and the Sun, blocking part or all of the Sun's light.

NASA’s Solar Observatory Sees Two Eclipses in One Day
In a rare celestial event, NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) captured two eclipses on July 25, 2025. First, at 2:45 UTC, the Moon passed between SDO and the Sun, covering about 62% of the solar disk. Just hours later, around 6:30 UTC, Earth itself blocked the Sun entirely from SDO’s perspective. These dual eclipses occurred during SDO’s...

X&Y Now Streaming on SunNXT: What You Need to Know About This Comedy Kannada Drama Movie
X&Y is a comedy-drama. It is a fantasy comedy drama. When an unborn soul is desperate to go on Earth once and is given s mission to find his parents, and upon their union, he can live. Once he gets life, the harsh realities, unexpected struggle and the emotional turmoil, make him weary, and he prays to go back and never wants to be born ever again....

Indian Scientists Unravel the Mystery Behind Rare Aurora Over Ladakh
A team of Indian astronomers has successfully explained the rare aurora seen over Ladakh, caused by intense solar activity and CME collisions. The event, captured in May 2024, was traced using global data and advanced solar models, offering new insights into space weather forecasting and solar storm impacts on Earth.

Colossal Solar Filament Eruption Sculpts 250,000-Mile 'Canyon of Fire' on the Sun’s Surface
A massive July 15 filament eruption from the sun’s limb carved a 250,000‑mile‑long plasma canyon captured by NASA’s SDO. The spectacular rift, formed as magnetic fields realigned, featured 12,400‑mile‑high plasma walls. Although the eruption launched a coronal mass ejection into space, SOHO and GOES‑19 imagery confirm it’s heading a...

NASA CODEX Telescope on ISS Reveals Hidden Secrets of the Sun’s Corona
NASA has introduced CODEX, a cutting-edge mini solar telescope attached to the International Space Station, which is offering groundbreaking observations of the Sun's corona. Unlike past instruments, CODEX can measure both temperature and speed of solar wind particles. This innovation aims to improve our understanding of solar weather, especially a...

Two Spacecraft Recreate Artificial Solar Eclipses to Observe the Sun’s Superhot Corona
Twin satellites in ESA’s Proba-3 mission have successfully recreated artificial solar eclipses from space to examine the sun’s million-degree corona. The breakthrough will allow continuous observations of the sun’s outer atmosphere, offering rare insights that natural eclipses on Earth can’t provide. The mission marks a major step in solar ...

Sun Unleash a 600,000-Mile Filament in Fiery Eruption
A spectacular 600,000-mile-long solar filament erupted off the sun’s surface in a fiery blast captured on video. While the resulting CME will miss Earth, experts are watching closely as solar activity ramps up toward Solar Cycle 25’s peak. The event underscores the sun’s ongoing volatility and potential for more powerful outbursts ahead.
