LOTS OF SUNSPOTS: Today there are nine sunspot groups on the solar disk, the most in years. If only one explodes, Earth could experience a solar storm. The most likely would be sunspot AR3031, which has an unstable 'beta-gamma' magnetic field that harbors energy for M-class solar flares. Solar wind speed: 591.9 km/sec

THE EVERSHED EFFECT: Solar Cycle 25 is producing a lot of sunspots. This is giving amateur astronomers an opportunity they haven't had in years--the chance to look into the dark cores and see what is going on. On April 24th, a Dutch astronomer nicknamed "Neo" did just that, and "I observed the Evershed Effect," he says.  British astronomer John Evershed discovered this phenomenon in 1909 while he was working at the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory in India. The government of India later made a postage stamp to celebrate it. More than 100 years later researchers still aren't certain what causes the Evershed Effect. A leading theory holds that material is being siphoned out of the sunspot through magnetic flux tubes much like a milkshake sucked out of a straw. The animation above is only a fraction of what Neo saw. The full field of view shows the Evershed Effect happening in three large sunspots simultaneously. MAMMATUS SUNSET: Yesterday afternoon, a thunderstorm swept across Pennsylvania. Then this happened:  Named for their resemblance to a cow's underbelly, mammatus clouds appear at the edges of some storms, often when a thundercloud is breaking up. Researchers have called them an "intriguing enigma," because no one knows exactly how they form. Mammatus clouds often go unnoticed because potential observers have been chased indoors by bad weather. If you are one of them, go back outside when the storm passes; you could witness a beautiful mystery in the sky. |

BIG SUNSPOT ALERT: Yesterday, sunspot AR3038 was big. Today, it's enormous. The fast-growing sunspot has doubled in size in only 24 hours: movie. AR3038 has an unstable 'beta-gamma' magnetic field that habors energy for M-class solar flares, and it is directly facing Earth. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text.
STRANGE THINGS IN THE SKY, COURTESY OF SPACEX: On Sunday morning, June 19th, SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral (0427 UT) carrying a Globalstar communications satellite. Within hours, people around the world started seeing strange things in the sky. First came the "smoke ring." Jerrod Wood video recorded it from central Illinois:
"I believe it shows the orbital insertion of the Globalstar FM15 satellite," says Wood.
He's right. Almost two hours after launch, the upper stage of the Falcon 9 rocket deployed the Globalstar satellite; the smoke ring Wood saw was the "puff" of separation. At the time, the rocket was more than 1100 km high, so people were able to see it across much of North America. Check out these images: from Arizona, Missouri, and California.
An hour after the smoke ring, things got really strange. Sky watchers in New Zealand saw this:
"It looked like a beautiful galaxy," says photographer Alasdair Burns of Twinkle Dark Sky Tours on Stewart Island. "It was a very slowly rotating spiral that started small and gradually expanded. Eventually it became so large and faint that it could no longer be seen. There were a group of us on our balcony watching it and none of us had ever seen anything like it."
This spiral was caused by the Falcon 9's upper stage venting leftover fuel just before deorbiting into the Pacific Ocean. The upper stage was probably spinning on its longest axis to stabilize flight orientation--hence the spiral shape. Similar spirals have been seen after previous Falcon 9 launches.
Finally, David Cortner of Rutherford College, North Carolina, saw something truly head-scratching. He calls it a "rocket powered aurora." This 8-frame mosaic shows a red band that appeared approximately 11 minutes after the Falcon 9's liftoff from Cape Canaveral:
"I went out to watch the midnight launch," says Cortner. "Here in western North Carolina, I was hoping for a faint, moonlit 'jellyfish'--the kind of display we see after many SpaceX launches." But that's not what happened.
"The rocket's trajectory was much higher than I expected," he continues. "It was almost 500 km high by the time it was due east of me, not 150-200 km like most SpaceX flights up the Atlantic coast. As a result, the rocket passed by unseen."
"Instead, I noticed this red glow spreading along the flight path a minute or two after the rocket's closest approach," he says. "It looked like the aurora borealis."
Could it have been auroras? Probably not. Low-latitude red auroras typically appear only during strong geomagnetic storms. At the time of the photo, however, global geomagnetic activity was low (Kp=3); there was no space weather event in progress.
There has been much discussion on the web about a covert payload hitchiking on this Falcon 9 rocket. Analysts believe that a clandestine satellite may have been released about 10.5 minutes after launch. This is strikingly similar to the time Cortner witnessed the red glow over North Carolina. Moreover, a photographer in Ohio may have witnessed the same thing.

AURORAS IN THE USA: The holiday weekend began with silent fireworks. On Saturday, July 2nd, sky watchers across northern-tier US states witnessed a beautiful display of aurora borealis. Why? A passing CME caused a G1-class geomagnetic storm. The storm has subsided now; the next fireworks will look like this. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.
A SUDDEN INCREASE IN NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS: Something unexpected just happened in the mesosphere. As June came to an end, NASA's AIM spacecraft detected a sharp increase in the frequency of noctilucent clouds (NLCs), the most in 15 years:
"In the last couple of days we saw a huge spike in the clouds," says Cora Randall, a professor at the University of Colorado Boulder. Randall works with AIM data and she prepared the plot, above.
NLCs are Earth's highest clouds. Seeded by meteoroids, they float at the edge of space more than 80 km above the ground. NLCs form when summertime wisps of water vapor rise up to the mesosphere, allowing water to crystallize around specks of meteor smoke.
Oliver Schwenn witnessed the outbreak on June 30th from Aarhus, Denmark:
"I photographed the display shortly before midnight," says Schwenn. "The clouds were shining brightly in the night sky."
What's causing this? It could be SpaceX.
"We're speculating that the spike might be due to extra water vapor transported to higher latitudes from rocket launches," says Randall. "But much more quantitative analysis would be required to confirm that or not."
The timing makes sense. It takes about 10 days for water vapor from rocket engines to waft up to the mesosphere. This takes us back to SpaceX's launch of the Globalstar satellite on June 19th, which caused a number of remarkable phenomena in the sky due to the extra burn time of its second-stage engine. Noctilucent clouds may be yet another by-product of that unusual launch.
Noctilucent clouds are normally a polar phenomenon. However, since the outburst began we have received reports of NLCs from as far south as Washington State and Oregon. Look for the clouds, ripply and electric-blue, just after sunset.

ACTIVE SUN: Spoiler alert: Something on the sun is about to explode. "There is an incredible-looking sunspot crossing the center of the solar disk and a new large dark core has just appeared on the limb," reports Illinois astronomer Apollo Lasky, who photographed the seething starscape:
To make the video, Lasky capped his telescope with a solar filter tuned to the glow of ionized calcium (CaK). CaK filters are excellent detectors of "sunspot froth"--the bubbly, turbulent sea of magnetism that surrounds active sunspot groups. Every sunspot in the video is surrounded. Solar flare alerts: SMS Text.

The Sun is expected to explode any day now.
Solar researchers have their eye on a massive sunspot dubbed AR3055, which measures more than 6,100 miles wide. These regions, which appear as dark moles on the surface of the Sun, are concentrations of relatively cooler temperatures caused by a magnetic flux.
“There is an incredible-looking sunspot crossing the center of the solar disk and a new large dark core has just appeared on the limb,” astronomer Apollo Lasky said in a Monday statement published on SpaceWeather.com.
And it’s almost directly facing the Earth, which poses a threat to our way of life.
The last M-class flare to threaten Earth was seen stemming from sunspot AR3038 last month as scientists warned of potential radio silence lasting about 10-minutes stemming from sunspot AR3038.

MINOR GEOMAGNETIC STORM: A brief G1-class geomagnetic storm erupted on July 12th when Earth entered a stream of fast-moving solar wind. Shock-like discontinuities in the solar wind data suggest that at least one minor CMEs might have been embedded in the stream. No auroras have been reported, probably because of full moonlight. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.
THE BASTILLE DAY EVENT: When a solar storm is so strong that the Voyager spacecraft feel it, you know it must be special. Twenty-two years ago today, July 14, 2000, the lonely travelers were on the verge of escaping the sun's influence altogether when giant sunspot AR9077 exploded. The flare was so intense, it sent shockwaves to the very edge of the solar system.
Earth was on the doorstep of the blast, dubbed The "Bastille Day Event" because it coincided with the national day of France. Subatomic particles, especially protons, peppered satellites and penetrated deep into Earth's atmosphere. Sensors on Earth's surface registered a rare GLE--a "ground-level event."
 |  |
| Above: SOHO images of the Bastille Day solar flare (left) and CME (right). "Snow" in the images is a result of energetic protons hitting the spacecraft | |
A day later the CME arrived. Impact on July 15th sparked an extreme (Kp=9) geomagnetic storm. The sun had just set on the east coast of North America when the first auroras appeared.
"I was out in the yard doing chores and saw bright red auroras overhead," recalls Uwe Heine of Caswell County, North Carolina. "I called over to our neighbor, Carrie, who was also outside. I told her those were not sunset colors. It was an aurora, and super rare to see this far south!"

In New York, the sky exploded with light, recalls Lou Michael Moure. "I was living on Long Island at the time. A family member came running into my room, begging me to come outside to see 'the sky on fire.' The sky truly looked as if it was ablaze. Hues of white and green eventually gave way to reds that blanketed the heavens from horizon to horizon."
By the time the storm subsided on July 16th, auroras had been sighted as far south as Texas, Florida and Mexico.A few other storms of the Space Age have have been equally strong, but the Bastille Day Event is special to researchers. It was the first major solar storm after the launch of SOHO, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory. Data from the young satellite taught researchers a lot, very quickly, about the physics of extreme flares.

No wonder the Voyagers felt it.
It took the Bastille Day CME months to reach the distant spacecraft--180 days to Voyager 2, and 245 days to Voyager 1. Being near the edge of the solar system, both spacecraft were naturally bathed in high levels of cosmic rays. The CME swept aside that ambient radiation, creating a temporary reduction called a "Forbush Decrease." Conditions returned to normal 3 to 4 months later and, finally, the storm was over.
Could another Bastille Day Event be in the offing? Solar Cycle 25 is ramping up, with a new Solar Max expected in 2025. Stay tuned.

CHANCE OF FLARES: There are half-a-dozen large sunspots on the sun today. At least two of them (AR3057 and AR3058) pose a threat for strong flares. NOAA forecasters estimate a 45% chance of M-class flares and a 10% chance of X-flares on July 16th. Solar wind speed: 546.0 km/sec
A 'CANYON OF FIRE' JUST OPENED ON THE SUN: A dark filament of magnetism whipsawed out of the sun's atmosphere on July 15th, carving a gigantic canyon of fire. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the eruption:
The walls of the canyon are 25,000 km high and more than 10 times as long. They trace the channel where the filament was suspended by magnetic forces above the sun's surface, before instabilities flung it skyward.
Soon after the eruption, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) saw a CME emerging from the sun's northern hemisphere. Play the movie. NOAA analysts are modeling the CME to determine if any part of it might hit Earth. Stay tuned.

GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH: Minor G1-class geomagnetic storms are possible on July 20th or 21st when a slow-moving CME is expected to hit Earth's magnetic field. The CME was hurled into space by an unstable filament of magnetism, which erupted on July 15th. Aurora alerts: SMS Text.
HUGE SOLAR PROMINENCE MIGHT BE COMING APART: For days, astronomers have been monitoring a huge prominence on the sun. It might be coming apart. On Saturday, July 16th, Dr. Sebastian Voltmer watched part of the structure fly away:
"The sheer size of the prominence is impressive," says Voltmer. "It was spectacular to see a very fast moving part of it ejecting and detaching to the side." Voltmer watched the action through a small refracting telescope protected by a Daystar Quark filter system.
Structures like this, in which hot plasma is held above the sun's surface by dynamic magnetic fields, are inherently unstable. The entire prominence could come down at any moment. If it falls today, amateur astronomers will get a fantastic side-on view of its disintegration.
