Using continuous imagery from NASA's PUNCH (Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere) mission, scientists predicted the near-Earth arrival of a solar eruption to within 30 minutes in an initial ...
A powerful solar eruption recorded on 8 October could trigger a moderate geomagnetic storm on 11 October, NOAA has warned.
NASA’s PUNCH mission was developed to reduce this observational gap. Four small satellites in low Earth orbit, approximately 620 km above the surface, simultaneously capture images of the Sun’s ...
NASA SunRISE mission delay pushes its six fully tested solar-observing SmallSats to no earlier than mid-2027, meaning the ...
New research led by NASA Goddard found persistent “erroneous measurements” skewing past estimates for how severe geomagnetic storms can get. Reading time 3 minutes Cataclysmic solar storms may be rare ...
The European Space Agency–led Solar Orbiter spacecraft has flown through an S-shaped kink known as a "switchback" in the ...
In March 2025, NASA launched the Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere (PUNCH) mission in an effort to better understand solar weather. It consists of a constellation of four microsatellites ...
