Solar wind speeds remain elevated as an incoming coronal mass ejection approaches Earth, with forecasts indicating increased ...

One way to track the solar cycle is by counting the number of sunspots, which are dark, cooler patches on the Sun’s surface.

Has the Sun’s activity increased or decreased in the last few years? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters hopes to address as a team of scientists investigated ...

Solar provided over 11% of total US electrical generation in May, while wind + solar produced over one-fifth, and the mix of all renewable energy sources generated nearly 30%, according to data just ...

The sun has become more and more active over the last 16 years, in a turn that surprised scientists and could affect space weather and technology on Earth, NASA announced this week. A new research, ...

Artificial intelligence is quietly rewriting the rules of space weather forecasting, turning what used to be a hazy two-day warning into a detailed four-day outlook. By learning directly from high ...

What: A major coronal hole on the Sun is releasing high-speed solar wind toward Earth, driving recent auroral activity and space weather disturbances. Coronal holes are cooler regions where the Sun’s ...

Solar activity, manifested primarily through sunspots, solar flares and coronal mass ejections, has long influenced both the near-space environment and terrestrial systems. Over millennia, variations ...

EIA’s latest monthly “Electric Power Monthly” report (with data through July 31, 2025), once again confirms that solar is the fastest growing among the major sources of US electricity. In July alone, ...
