Researchers say a deadly earthquake in Japan and 2023’s most powerful solar flare occurring back-to-back can’t be a ...

Scientists have proposed a surprising connection between solar flares and earthquakes. When solar activity disturbs the ionosphere, it may generate electric fields that penetrate fragile fracture ...

A team of scientists from around the world has created the first system that can predict when and where extremely powerful ...

Solar physicists and seismologists are testing a provocative idea: that violent outbursts from the Sun could be linked to the timing of some large earthquakes. New statistical work reports ...

The planet is experiencing the most powerful solar event since 2003—and it's bringing spectacular Northern Lights.

The sun's visible disk has been perfectly free from sunspots for the first time since June 2022, suggesting the current solar cycle might be heading toward its quieter phase.

The sky is sizzling with cosmic potential! As scientists closely monitor solar activity, a powerful surge in solar flares has set the stage for the northern lights to potentially illuminate our skies ...

Close-up observations of the Sun explain how solar flares start, grow, and send high-energy particles racing through space.

Just as avalanches on snowy mountains start with the movement of a small quantity of snow, the ESA-led Solar Orbiter spacecraft has discovered that a solar flare is triggered by initially weak ...
