A team of scientists has now used data from a trio of NASA satellites to develop a new model that can recreate a coronal mass ejection in 3D. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X ...

New 3D models from NASA show how massive solar eruptions send powerful shock waves through space. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) on the sun, which happen when the sun's magnetic-field lines bend and ...

What physical mechanisms heat the outer solar or stellar atmosphere to million-kelvin temperatures is a fundamental but long-standing open question. In particular, the solar corona in active-region ...

This paper provides an in-depth analysis and performance evaluation of four Solar Radiance (SR) prediction models. The prediction is ensured for a period ranging from a few hours to several days of ...

Researchers in Iran have used digital elevation models to improve the accuracy of solar energy potential maps. Their model is intended to identify the best areas for solar panel deployment in urban ...

Communication systems are an integral part of daily life, but the sun can disrupt them by triggering powerful geomagnetic storms. To forecast these disturbances — which could affect GPS systems, air ...

Scientists have for the first time witnessed the mechanism behind explosive energy releases in the Sun’s atmosphere, confirming new theories about how solar flares are created. New footage put ...

Lightyear has selected a Tesla Model 3 and a Volkswagen Crafter LCV as research vehicles for modified solar roof integration projects. We last met Lightyear at CES in January when they presented their ...

This solar-powered 3D printer fits in a suitcase and can replicate itself or print parts to build an even larger 3D printer. Eric Mack has been a CNET contributor since 2011. Eric and his family live ...

The SWx TREC team is developing a new visualization capability to take advantage of the full Enlil 3D data volume and interactively visualize the CME expansion out of the plane of the Earth. This new ...
