In May 2024, an epic solar storm rattled Earth so powerfully that its effects were felt even at the bottom of the ocean.

"We are the first mission to be able to track space weather events in three dimensions routinely across the solar system." ...

Solar flares The most common form of solar storms, these intense bursts of radiation from the Sun release enormous amounts of energy, comparable to billions of hydrogen bombs. Coronal mass ...

A superflare is an exceptionally powerful electromagnetic emission from a star, releasing energy equivalent to a trillion hydrogen bombs, far beyond the solar flares recorded to date. Figure 1 - ...

Here’s how it works. Shining loops of plasma on the surface of the sun "flicker" hours before they unleash potentially dangerous solar flares, a new study shows. The new findings could help ...

This breakthrough was achieved using the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), a nuclear fusion reactor often referred to as the "artificial sun." A Step Toward Unlimited Energy ...

The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak achieved a remarkable scientific milestone by maintaining steady-state high-confinement plasma operation for an impressive 1,066 seconds. Credit: ...
