Earth braces for biggest space storm in five years The biggest space weather storm in five years is hurtling toward Earth, threatening to disrupt power grids, GPS systems, satellites and airline flights, experts say. Space Storm Could Hit GPS Systems And Flights The biggest space weather storm in five years is heading towards Earth and could disrupt power grids, GPS systems, satellites and airline flights, Nasa has warned. New System To Forecast Space Weather A new system has been developed by British scientists that will forecast space weather in an effort to better protect satellites orbiting our planet from damaging solar storms. Led by researchers at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), the SPACECAST project is expected to provide reliable web-based forecasts so that satellite operators will be able to take action to keep their navigational ... Space Weather: Explosions on Venus When discontinuities in the solar wind remain in contact with a planet's bow shock, they can collect a pool of hot particles that becomes a hot flow anomaly (HFA). An HFA on Venus most likely acts like a vacuum, pulling up parts of the planet's atmosphere. Credit: NASA/Collinson. Fiery weather explosions detected on Venus Washington, Mar 6 (ANI): Researchers have observed a type of space weather outburst on Venus, which are quite common on Earth. Earth braces for biggest space storm in 5 years The biggest space weather storm in five years is hurtling toward Earth, threatening to disrupt power grids, GPS systems, satellites and airline flights, experts say. Venus's space weather happens up close and personal Astronomers studying Venus have spotted a type of space weather outburst called a hot flow anomaly (HFA), which causes a temporary reversal of the solar wind that normally flows right past. read more NOAA SWPC Space Weather Outlook #12-12 NOAA SWPC Space Weather Outlook #12-12 New system to forecast space weather launched ( British Antarctic Survey ) A new European Union system to forecast space weather goes live March 1. Led by researchers at British Antarctic Survey, the 2.54 million SPACECAST project will provide frequent and reliable web-based forecasts so that satellite operators can take action to protect their satellites from space radiation damage. Boulder space weather forecasters tracking 2 massive solar flares A pair of massive solar flares that erupted from the sun's surface Tuesday at about 5 p.m. Colorado time are expected to slam into the Earth early Thursday morning, according to the Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder.
