Have you seen the Northern Lights? They're more than just pretty colors; when you see them in Pittsburgh, there's science ...

The world's largest solar telescope just captured the highest-resolution images of a solar flare to date — and they're spectacular. Researchers trained the Hawaii-based Daniel K. Inouye Solar ...

A high-resolution image of the flare from the Inouye Solar Telescope, taken on August 8, 2024, at 20:12 UT. The image is about 4 Earth-diameters on each side. “This is the first time the Inouye Solar ...

The sun has a bone to pick with Earth — and it’s not done yet. A colossal solar storm just zapped the daylight side of the planet, causing global blackouts and knocking out radio signals across Europe ...

The clearest pictures ever taken of a solar flare have been taken by the world's largest solar telescope. Record-breaking images from the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope in Hawaii reveal a flare four ...

The sun may be 93 million miles away, but that does not stop its solar activity from affecting the Earth's atmosphere, a new study from Queen's University Belfast as found. The Earth's atmosphere is ...

The sun’s activity is escalating far beyond scientist’s predictions, Nasa has warned, resulting in more solar storms, flares ...

After weeks of reduced activity, the sun erupted with three powerful flares on a single day. That could send solar flares toward Earth, impacting electronics and making it possible to view the ...

Beautiful yet dangerous solar flares that erupt from the sun could be as hot as 180 million degrees Fahrenheit, researchers say. That's more than six times hotter than solar physicists previously ...

Astronomers have just captured the highest resolution images of a solar flare ever recorded, offering unprecedented insights into how the sun works and potentially transforming space weather ...

A high-powered solar flare erupted from the sun last week, causing a major radio blackout in Europe and Asia. The eruption happened at 3:25 a.m., meaning that the sun wasn't in the Texas sky at the ...

The sun unleashed another strong X-class solar flare overnight, stronger than the one that occurred on Tuesday — an X2.7, the strongest so far this year. X-class flares are the strongest and most ...
