A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a significant ejection of plasma mass from the Sun's corona into the heliosphere. CMEs are often associated with solar flares and other forms of solar activity , but a broadly accepted theoretical understanding of these relationships has not been established.
Three CMEs from 8 May reached Earth on 10 May 2024, causing severe to extreme geomagnetic storms with bright and very long-lasting aurorae. In North America, aurorae were seen across the United States as far south as the Florida Keys, [21] [22] [23] as well as from the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, [24] The Bahamas, [25] Jamaica, [26] [27] and ...
STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) is a solar observation mission. [2] Two nearly identical spacecraft (STEREO-A, STEREO-B) were launched in 2006 into orbits around the Sun that cause them to respectively pull farther ahead of and fall gradually behind the Earth.
Observations made by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, June 7, 2010. An impact event that occurred on June 3, 2010 involved an object estimated at between 8 and 13 meters (26 and 43 ft), and was recorded and first reported by Anthony Wesley. [51] [52] The impact was also captured on video in the Philippines by amateur astronomer Christopher Go ...
Crack in the World is a 1965 American science-fiction doomsday disaster movie filmed in Spain. It is about scientists who launch a nuclear missile into the Earth's crust, to release the geothermal energy of the magma below; but accidentally unleash a cataclysmic destruction that threatens to sever the earth in two.

The Carrington Event was the most intense geomagnetic storm in recorded history, peaking on 1–2 September 1859 during solar cycle 10.It created strong auroral displays that were reported globally and caused sparking and even fires in telegraph stations. [1]
