Earth, solar storm and Inner Radiation Belt

Huge solar storm in May 2024 spawned 2 new radiation belts around Earth
The creation of the belts, and others like it in the future, are a potential new danger to astronauts and satellites headed to geostationary orbit and beyond.
Earth grew an extra, never-before-seen 'radiation belt' after last year's supercharged solar storm — and it's probably still there
Data collected from a once-defunct NASA satellite show that Earth grew two extra radiation belts following a supercharged geomagnetic storm in May 2024, including a never-before-seen structure that is "likely still there today,
That Huge 2024 Solar Storm Didn’t Just Light Up the Skies—It Reshaped Space Near Earth
A NASA satellite that suddenly reappeared after going silent gets credit for the remarkable discovery—a pair of temporary radiation belts between the Van Allen Belts.
NASA CubeSat finds new radiation belts after May 2024 solar storm
The largest solar storm in two decades hit Earth in May 2024. For several days, wave after wave of high-energy charged particles from the sun rocked the planet. Brilliant auroras engulfed the skies, and some GPS communications were temporarily disrupted.
Remember the northern lights that reached Florida? The solar storm created radiation belts around Earth
The most powerful solar storm to impact Earth in decades caused the temporary formation of radiation belts around Earth, NASA recently announced. A NASA CubeSat satellite made the discovery, which provided greater insight into the impacts of solar events.
