Filament eruption

An interesting filament eruption took place in the Sun's southern hemisphere on 11 November.

Power grids during the 10-11 May storm

A summary of the impacts on the power grids during the 10-11 May 2024 geomagnetic storm, as presented during last week's ESWW.

 

Preparing for launch

After a small delay due to problems with transport, the two satellites finally made it to India. They landed safely on November 5 to be transported to the launch site in Chennai. There, the final preparations for launch are ongoing. Currently the launch of Proba-3 is planned for December 4.

X-class flare relay

Another X-class flare, another source region. NOAA 3883 produced a X2.3 flare on 6 November.

A bit of everything

ESWW 2024, a prominence eruption, first images of CCOR, and PROBA2's 15th anniversary.

X2.0 flare in NOAA 3878

Another X-class flare, and once again from a different region. NOAA 3878 was the source of an X2.0 flare on 31 October.

Comparing 2 solar storms

The solar storms of 24 and 26 October are compared from the initial X-class flare to the geomagnetic disturbance that resulted from the associated coronal mass ejection.

X1.8 flare in NOAA 3873

Another X-class flare, but from a different region. The associated coronal mass ejection may deliver a glancing blow on 28 October.

Meteors, meteoroids and meteorites. What is the difference?

The BRAMS team produced a short movie that explains the difference between meteoroids, meteors and meteorites, radio observations of meteors, BRAMS, and what you see in a spectrogram. 

Back in business!

The Sun produced a strong X3.3 flare on 24 October. The associated coronal mass ejection, expected to deliver a glancing blow, actually arrived on 26 October at 15:35UTC (DSCOVR).  A minor geomagnetic storm is expected. ***UPDATED (2)***
