The northern lights are expected to be visible in 12 states across the northern US on January 8-9 due to an incoming stream of fast solar wind and potential coronal mass ejections. This phenomenon is a result of geomagnetic activity that may reach minor storm levels, providing a rare opportunity for aurora chasers to witness the spectacle.
Two NASA heliophysics missions, IMAP and Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, have launched successfully and are performing well, while a third mission, TRACERS, has encountered issues with one of its spacecraft. The missions aim to study the sun's influence on the solar system and Earth's upper atmosphere.
A coronal mass ejection from the sun is expected to trigger minor to moderate geomagnetic storm conditions, making the northern lights visible in 18 US states on January 2-3. The best viewing times are between 4 p.m. - 10 p.m. EST and 10 p.m. - 4 a.m. EST.
The 2025 Arctic Report Card has revealed that the Arctic is warming at a rate more than twice as fast as the Earth as a whole, resulting in significant changes to sea ice, snow, and ecosystems. This rapid transformation has major implications for global climate patterns and highlights the need for continued monitoring and research.
A coronal mass ejection from the sun may cause the northern lights to be visible at high latitudes on December 24-25, offering a rare opportunity for stargazers to witness this phenomenon. The event is expected to be a minor geomagnetic storm, with solar wind speeds reaching up to 500 miles per second.
