Nasa’s Artemis II mission to the Moon could end up being scuppered by the Sun, after a powerful solar flare triggered radio blackouts this week.

A massive solar flare produced a coronal mass ejection (CME) heading toward Earth, raising concerns for the Artemis II moon mission.

As NASA’s Artemis II mission prepares for liftoff, most of the conversation in D.C. and around the nation has rightly centered on the excitement of the first cr

Scientists from the New Jersey Institute of Technology have identified a hidden layer deep inside the Sun called the tachocline as the origin of solar storms. The discovery could improve space weather forecasts and help protect satellites and communication systems on Earth.

When the surface of the Sun exploded with activity in May 2024, Earth was hit by the biggest solar storm in more than two decades. The video shown below—made from images captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory—shows the powerful solar flare and ...

Earth is bracing for a powerful solar storm as the Sun unleashes intense flares, potentially disrupting radio communications, GPS, and power grids. The X2.7-class flare, the strongest of 2025, signals heightened solar activity during the solar maximum.
