Scientists have long struggled to accurately predict solar flares, but a recent breakthrough using NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory has uncovered a promising new sign: flickering coronal loops. These ...

"We have begun processing most near-real-time [Solar Dynamics Observatory] data products," JSOC team members at Stanford — short for Joint Science Operations Center — which is spearheading ...

Sunspot AR3256 erupted with an X1.2-class solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured the fireworks in multiple ...

Solar material is gusting out of the dark patch in the Sun's corona towards Earth at more than a million miles per hour.

Now, using NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, one team has identified flickering loops in the solar atmosphere (corona) that seem to signal when the sun is about to unleash a large flare.

Flickering coronal "loops" on the Sun are warning signs of a coming solar eruption, paving the way for better space weather predictions.

The Sun's activity was observed by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) spacecraft. Its mission is to study the Sun’s ...

Researchers have made a potentially crucial breakthrough in solar science that could help predict solar flares with greater ...
