Earlier this week, the number of visible sunspots on our home star fell to zero for the first time in 1,335 days. This ...

Scientists develop a forecasting system that predicts high-risk windows and regions for solar superflares, using 50 years of X-ray data and machine learning techniques.

Scientists have proposed a surprising connection between solar flares and earthquakes. When solar activity disturbs the ...

Researchers have proposed that changes in Earth's ionosphere could trigger electrical forces that nudge fragile areas of the crust into creating an earthquake.

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

Solar flares are sudden releases of energy from the Sun’s surface. Scientists categorise them based on strength, beginning with A, B and C, followed by M and finally X.

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 ...

Solar Cycle 25 has reached its most active phase, bringing stronger solar flares and geomagnetic storms that may affect Earth’s technology.

A question about solar flares and changing Earth's orbit and what role they might play in climate change from a congressman during a House committee meeting have prompted confusion. During a recent ...
