SPACE WEATHER

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week we have several coronal holes rotating through the Earth-strike zone, which could bring some more aurora over the early part of this upcoming week. Aurora photographers, especially at high latitudes should get a good show through mid-week, and photographers at mid-latitudes could catch some glimpses of aurora, especially through the early part of this week. On top of that we also have a new sunspot, region 2813 that is boosting the solar flux on Earth's dayside for radio amateurs and emergency responders alike to keep us in the marginal range for radio propagation. Even if this region fizzles, we will have some new bright regions rotating into Earth-view from the Sun's farside that should help maintain these marginal radio conditions throughout the week. Although the space weather may be a bit on the dull side, this is actually a blessing in disguise as the Ingenuity Helicopter begins its solo journey on the Red Planet. In the Martian Minute, we dive into the deployment of this little helicopter and why good weather is so important to it's survival. Learn more details about what is next for Ingenuity and when it will take it's first flight on Mars, find out more about the new sunspot and coming fast solar wind and how they might affect radio propagation and GPS reception, and see what else our Sun has in store!

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week our star continues to ramp up activity with more fast solar wind and some new bright regions. The fast solar wind has already brought aurora down to mid-latitudes over the past few nights and more is to come! In addition, another coronal hole will soon be rotating into the Earth-strike zone, which will bring more aurora chances. Amatuer radio operators are also enjoying a small boost in solar flux due to several new bright regions on the Earth-facing Sun. One of these, region 2808 is helping the most and is even firing small flares on and off. In addition, we have yet another large bright region that will rotate into view from the Sun's farside in a few days and that will ensure the solar flux dstays in the high 70s to low 80s. This means we will continue to be well into marginal radio propagation conditions over this week, and likely into next. The only issue will be the ongoing mild storming on Earth's nightside due to the fast solar wind. This will affect radio propagation and GPS reception a bit, easily throughout the week. Learn the details of the fast solar wind, catch up on recent aurora from the ongoing solar storms, and see what else our Sun has in store!

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week our Sun causes us to wait for some action to arrive. We have two coronal holes in view this week that will rotate into the Earth-strike zone over the next few days. These will bring some much needed aurora to high latitudes and possibly mid-latitudes during the early part of the week and again round the next weekend, especially since the last solar storm fizzled! In addition, we have several new bright regions on the Earth-facing Sun that are boosting the solar flux up into the low 80s and ensuring marginal radio propagation on the dayside of Earth. These regions are also firing minor flares so that means amatuer radio operators might hear a little noise on the bands. Sadly, these regions will rotate out of view over the next few days, which will drop the solar flux back into the 70s, but it shouldnt be too bad. At least the drop in solar flux will help GPS reception on Earth's dayside, but reception on earth's nightside will likely be impacted near dawn and dusk and at high latitudes near aurora once the fast solar wind arrives.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week our Sun has livened things up a bit with some fast solar wind that has kept us at active conditions for several days and brought aurora to many places around the world. But just as this solar storm begins to wane, the Sun launches another solar storm, this time from filament that has been slingshot towards Earth. The NASA prediction model runs indicate this new solar storm will hit Earth as early as February 23rd. NOAA prediction model run is not quite as optimistic and shows the solar storm going mainly east of Earth, and only grazing our planet around the 24th. Either way, because Earth's magnetic shield has already been rattled, it wont take much to bring us back up to active conditions and very possibly storm levels. So, aurora photographers should keep their batteries charged because we could be in for some more aurora views, even down to mid-latitudes. As for amateur radio and emergency operators, the solar flux is remaining in the mid-70s, thanks to bright region 2803 and this means radio propagation will stay in the marginal range on Earth's day side. However, because of the solar storm, radio propagation might be a bit enhanced on the dayside, even as propagation tanks on the nightside over this week. GPS users should also be careful as GPS reception will be impacted near dawn and dusk and anywhere near aurora during the solar storming. Learn the details of the coming solar storm, catch up on aurora photos during the recent storming, and see what else our Sun has in store this week.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen Our Sun wakes up a bit this week to bring us some gorgeous eye-candy in the shape of a snake! A huge filament, that almost stretches across the entire Earth-facing Sun is snaking through the Earth-strike zone now. If it erupts, not only will it give us a gorgeous spectacle, but it will launch an Earth-directed solar storm. Needless to say, we are watching it very closely. In addition, we have some fast solar wind from two coronal holes that is hitting Earth now. This fast wind has already brought us up to active conditions over the past several days and may easily do so again. Aurora photographers, especially at high latitudes should be in for a nice show over the next several days. Our Sun has also launched a solar storm to the west of Earth, but it may graze us sometime around mid-week. If that happens, it will enhance the effect of the fast solar wind and possibly bring aurora down to mid-latitudes. Definitely a lot happening in terms of solar storms this week! As for amateur radio operators, the solar flux continues to remain in the low 70s, which means marginal radio propagation on earth's dayside. There are a few bright regions in STEREO's view, which means solar flux might boost a little to the mid-70s over this week, but expect marginal propagation conditions to continue throughout the week. At least this low solar flux and lack of sunspots means GPS reception on Earth-'s dayside is good, even if the solar storming might disrupt reception near dawn and dusk and near aurora on Earth's nightside. Learn the details of this week's activity and check in with the weather at Mars as we prepare for the landing of Mars2020 with Perseverance Rover and Helicopter Ingenuity on February 18.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week fast solar wind comes in waves as we have multiple coronal holes rotating through the Earth-strike zone. The first coronal hole is sending us fast wind now and the next will send us a second wave in through the weekend. This means high latitudes will experience some decent aurora shows through week's end and even mid-latitudes will get some fleeting chances. Sadly, the single sunspot on the Earth-facing disk is rotating to the Sun's farside now and solar flux will likely drop into the low 70s. However, we should be able to hang on to marginal radio propagation on Earth's dayside over the course of this week. GPS users should also enjoy good reception on Earth's dayside, but GPS reception on earth's nightside, especially near dawn or dusk and near aurora will be impacted. Learn the details of these waves of fast solar wind, how the SOHO/LASCO instrument is being impacted due to terrestrial weather and maintenance, and see what else our Sun has in store!

Witness stunning computational models of extreme solar eruptions and learn how they enhance our ability to forecast threatening solar activity. As we make plans to return humans to the Moon, what risks do solar radiation and activity pose for astronauts in space? In this recording of the first virtual Frontiers lecture from the @American Museum of Natural History, held October 21, 2020, join researchers to learn how they are using computational modeling and the OpenSpace visualization software to tackle this question. Dr. Jon Linker, president of Predictive Science Inc. and co-investigator on the NASA STEREO and SDO missions, and Carter Emmart, the American Museum of Natural History's Director of Astrovisualization presented while OpenSpace was piloted by Elon Olsson from the Community Coordinated Modeling Center at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. ————————— Creation of this show was made possible in part by funding under the project “Quantifying the Risk of Extreme Solar Eruptions” (QUEST) in the National Science Foundation’s Prediction of and Resilience against Extreme Events (PREEVENTS) program and by the Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) Space Weather Research, Education and Development Initiative (REDI) funded by the National Science Foundation. In addition to NSF, funding for the scientific results described in the show was provided by NASA under the LWS, HSR, and SBIR/STTR programs, and by AFOSR. Scientific contributors include: Jon Linker, Tibor Torok, Ronald Caplan, Cooper Downs, Roberto Lionello, Pete Riley, and Viacheslav Titov (Predictive Science Inc.); Nathan Schwadron, Matthew Young, and Matthew Gorby (University of New Hampshire); Emilie Ho, Christian Adamsson (Linköping University, CCMC); Masha Kuznetsova, Leila Mays, Elon Olsson, and Lutz Rastaetter (CCMC); Janet Barzilla, Phil Quinn, Katie Whitman, Michael Cook, and Clayton Allison (NASA Johnson Space Center Space Radiation Analysis Group). ————————— The content is rendered using the open-source astrovisualization software OpenSpace (http://openspaceproject.com), developed in collaboration between American Museum of Natural History, Linköping University, New York University, and the University of Utah.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen Happy New Year everyone. Our Sun is slowly coming back from being on Holiday since the big solar storms of about a month ago. It has returned to being spotless, but at least we are still getting some activity. We've had two solar storms launch that are nearly Earth-directed and they could graze us sometime on the 11th or 12th, just enough to enhance the pocket of fast solar wind we are expecting at that time as well. This could bring aurora down to high-latitudes and possibly to mid-latitudes momentarily. We also are holding on to marginal radio propagation on Earth's dayside thanks to a small bright region emerging on the Earth facing disk. That region will be named region 2796 (incidentally I say the wrong number in the forecast, I know) if it grows into a sunspot so we are watching it carefully. Nonetheless the region is keeping solar flux in the mid-70s so we should enjoy marginal radio propagation conditions easily throughout this week. Learn the details of the solar storms en route, catch up on the latest conditions on the Red Planet as we prepare for the Mars 2020 rendezvous, and see what else our Sun has in store!

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week our Sun gives us some night gifts for the holidays. First we have an extended pocket of fast solar wind that has already brought aurora down to the UK and upper tier of the USA sporadically. It has also sparked some nice storm-time colors at high latitudes! Luckily, this fast solar wind should continue over the next few days through the weekend before it begins to calm down. So, aurora photographers, there is still time to catch some nice shows, especially at high latitudes.(We also have another smaller chance for aurora coming in about a week!) In addition, we also have solar flux getting a boost this week thanks to two new sunspots rotating into Earth-view. This means we are nearly back into the good range for radio propagation on Earth's dayside. Along with more new regions that will rotate into view over the next week, means we should see radio propagation continue to be pretty decent as we roll into the new year. Learn the details of the ongoing solar storming, catch up on gorgeous aurora shots from the continued fast solar wind, and see what else our Sun has in store this week!

This imagery captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory shows a solar flare and a subsequent eruption of solar material that occurred over the left limb of the Sun on November 29, 2020. From its foot point over the limb, some of the light and energy was blocked from reaching Earth – a little like seeing light from a lightbulb with the bottom half covered up. Also visible in the imagery is an eruption of solar material that achieved escape velocity and moved out into space as a giant cloud of gas and magnetic fields known as a coronal mass ejection, or CME. A third, but invisible, feature of such eruptive events also blew off the Sun: a swarm of fast-moving solar energetic particles. Such particles are guided by the magnetic fields streaming out from the Sun, which, due to the Sun’s constant rotation, point backwards in a big spiral much the way water comes out of a spinning sprinkler. The solar energetic particles, therefore, emerging as they did from a part of the Sun not yet completely rotated into our view, traveled along that magnetic spiral away from Earth toward the other side of the Sun. While the solar material didn’t head toward Earth, it did pass by some spacecraft: NASA’s Parker Solar Probe, NASA’s STEREO and ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter. Equipped to measure magnetic fields and the particles that pass over them, we may be able to study fast-moving solar energetic particles in the observations once they are downloaded. These sun-watching missions are all part of a larger heliophysics fleet that help us understand both what causes such eruptions on the Sun -- as well as how solar activity affects interplanetary space, including near Earth, where they have the potential to affect astronauts and satellites.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen Our Sun goes through a paradigm shift this week as solar flux tops 100 for the first time in several years! We also have more numbered bright regions on the Earth-facing disk than we've seen in a long time, with even more bright regions on the Sun's farside about to rotate into view. This means amateur radio operators are going to be enjoying GOOD radio propagation on Earth's dayside easily through this week and possibly from now on as we climb to solar maximum over the next few years. Many of these bright regions are also firing solar flares and solar storms, including one region on the Sun's farside that fired the first full-halso solar storm of this new solar cycle. This full-halo solar storm launch means our Sun is once again capable of launching the massive solar storms capable of creating real impacts here at Earth. In addition, it means the risk of big solar flares is now back on the table along with the possibility of solar radiation storms. So while there is not an Earth-directed solar storm this week, only some fast solar wind that will likely continue to bring aurora to high latitudes, we do have a lot to be thankful for this holiday season. Our Sun is finally and fully awake! Learn the details of this solar awakening, watch the full-halo solar storm launch, and see what else our Sun has in store!

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week our Sun continues its upward journey of activity with several new bright regions in Earth view and more on the Sun's farside. We are seeing solar flux continue to rise along with an increase in C-class flares. This is good news for amateur radio operators and emergency responders as radio propagation on Earth's dayside is continuing to improve. Of course, the flares mean a little radio noise as well, but it should be pretty mild overall. So, no worries, the SpaceX launch this weekend should not have any communication issues! However, these regions are also continuing to launch solar storms, especially region 2782, and as this region rotates into the Earth-strike zone we will watch closely for any Earth-directed activity. Aurora photographers at high latitudes have a small burst of fast solar wind to look forward that could bring aurora but it will be reasonably fleeting. At least this means GPS users will not be severely impacted this week. Learn more about the growing sunspot activity, catch up on aurora photos from recent solar storms, and see what else our Sun has in store!

This week our Sun continues its upward climb in activity with multiple new bright regions on the Earth-facing disk, including a new sunspot region (region 2778). On top of this we finally had that massive snake-like filament that we first saw in STEREO-A's view on the far side of the Sun launch as a non-Earth directed solar storm. Plus, we are also in the middle of a solar storm due to the fast wind from the northern coronal hole. This storm, which will likely rage for a few more days before settling down, has already brought aurora down to mid-latitudes, and there is a good chance more is to come! Learn the details of the current storm conditions, see where that snake-like filament launch is headed, watch region 2778 emerge and learn what else our Sun has in store this week.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen Our Sun is definitely waking up with eye-candy to boot! We went from a spotless Sun just last week to multiple bright regions on the Earth-facing disk, including two sunspots in Earth view (and possibly another if you count the big region on the Sun's farside). These regions have not only boosted the solar flux into the mid-70s, but they are also firing off B and C-class solar flares. One of these flares, which occurred just slightly behind the Sun's west limb resulted in the most spectacular fire plume we have seen yet in this new cycle. Likely this flare was larger than we saw at Earth because the Sun partially blocked it from view.Even at a C5-level, it still gave us a gorgeous show. Aurora photographers will appreciate the fact we have a coronal hole that will rotate into the Earth-strike zone later this week. This will begin an extended period of fast solar wind from several coronal holes, including a polar coronal hole we have seen before. Last month the fast solar wind from these coronal holes brought us up to G2-storm levels. We will see if this will be a repeat performance. If so, we expect the peak of the storm to be sometime around October 25. Finally, the farside of the Sun is almost as dazzling as the front side. We have a stunning filament bridge dangling over a big bright region on the Sun's east limb in STEREO's view. It is hard to tell if this filament can hang on until it rotates into Earth view before about these active regions, how radio propagation and GPS reception is faring with all this new activity, and see what else our Sun has in store!
