Supercharged auroras could fill the skies this week following a powerful solar storm that has already caused radio blackouts around the globe. On Sunday, May 7, a massive M1.5-class solar flare burst from the Sun, directly at our planet. This type of flare is considered a medium-intensity event but is still capable of dispelling high levels of radiation into the atmosphere. That radiation, then, is able to interact directly with the other elements of our atmosphere, causing issues for GPS and other radio…

An intense electromagnetic storm last week left skywatchers gazing at beautiful auroras as far south as Arizona and New Mexico. Other photographers in the southern Ontario area were also able to spot the northern lights shining in the sky.

Just a couple of days ago, a CME grazed Earth which had a ripple effect and its presence alone sparked auroras in the Arctic Circle. Moreover, a spotted Sun during sunrise was detected by astrophotographers in regions of higher altitudes, which could lead to disastrous consequences in the near future.
