Urgent warning over solar storms that could cripple internet for WEEKS
The solar maximum has officially arrived, bringing increased solar activity and potential disruptions to communications, but also enhanced aurora viewing opportunities.
The sun is at its 11-year maximum. That means another year of eruptions that can endanger satellites, ground flights, and spark stunning auroras.
The sun is currently in its maximum phase, leading to increased solar activity and beautiful auroras, but also potential disruptions to technology on Earth.
What's behind the northern lights that dazzled the sky farther south than normal
Strong solar storms are currently producing stunning auroras in areas farther south than normal, with potential for similar events again soon.

Scientists Warn That SpaceX Launches Are Tearing Small Holes in the Sky
SpaceX rockets burning their engines in the Earth's ionosphere are creating red, spherical spots in the night sky called "SpaceX auroras."
The frequency of these "auroras" could increase as SpaceX launches more rockets in the future.
The impact of these "auroras" on astronomical science and the stability of shortwave radio communication and GPS signals is still being evaluated.
