NASA's STEREO detects a CME from the sun (5/18/2013)

NASA's STEREO detects a CME from the sunOn 5:24 a.m. EDT on May 17, 2013, the sun erupted with an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection or CME, a solar phenomenon that can send billions of tons of solar particles into space that can reach Earth one to three days later and affect electronic systems in satellites and on the ground. ...> Full Article


Black hole powered jets plow into galaxy (5/18/2013)

Black hole powered jets plow into galaxyThe intense gravity of a supermassive black hole can be tapped to produce immense power in the form of jets moving at millions of miles per hour. A composite image shows this happening in the galaxy known as 4C+29.30 where X-rays from Chandra have been combined with optical and radio data. ...> Full Article


Orion's hidden fiery ribbon (5/17/2013)

Orion's hidden fiery ribbonThis dramatic new image of cosmic clouds in the constellation of Orion reveals what seems to be a fiery ribbon in the sky. This orange glow represents faint light coming from grains of cold interstellar dust, at wavelengths too long for human eyes to see. It was observed by the ESO-operated Atacama Pathfinder Experiment in Chile. ...> Full Article


HiRISE Mars camera reveals hundreds of impacts each year (5/16/2013)

HiRISE Mars camera reveals hundreds of impacts each yearTaking before and after pictures of the Martian terrain, researchers with the UA-led HiRISE camera have identified nearly 250 fresh impact craters on the Red Planet. The results provide scientists with a better yardstick to estimate how frequently craters are blasted on Mars, allowing them to assess recently formed features with greater accuracy. ...> Full Article


NASA sees activity continue on the sun (5/16/2013)

NASA sees activity continue on the sunSolar activity continued on May 14, 2013, as the sun emitted a fourth X-class flare from its upper left limb, peaking at 9:48 p.m. EDT. ...> Full Article


What is the worst case scenario? (5/16/2013)

Our latest report from the NOAA shows a 40% Chance of a Major-severe Geomagnetic Storm, which is expected to peak in 24 hours, and has brought up many interesting discussions. The staff at AstronomyReport.com entertained the idea of determining the worst possible outcome from the known set of current criteria. These aren't predictions of what is going to happen, only what may, in the most extreme circumstances, happen. ...> Full Article


Minor Geomagnetic Storm Rolls (5/16/2013)

The NOAA has issued an alert that the K-index of 4 threshold had been reached. This is a minor storm, but may herald a larger storm in its wake. ...> Full Article


40% Chance that the Major-severe Geomagnetic storm will be peaking in 24 hours (posted 5pm MST) (5/16/2013)

40% Chance that the Major-severe Geomagnetic storm will be peaking in 24 hours (posted 5pm MST)NOAA just released a revised Space Weather Forecast. They are confident in there 2nd revision enough to basically reprint it. The incoming storm, which is already inprogress, will peak in approximately 24hrs. ...> Full Article


First biological evidence of a supernova (5/15/2013)

First biological evidence of a supernovaIn fossil remnants of bacteria, researchers of the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM), found a radioactive iron isotope that they trace back to a supernova in our cosmic neighborhood. This is the first proven biological signature of a starburst. An age determination showed that the supernova must have occurred about 2.2 million years ago, roughly around the time when the modern human developed. ...> Full Article


40% Chance of a Major-severe Geomagnetic Storm in the next 42 hours (posted 10pm MST) (5/15/2013)

40% Chance of a Major-severe Geomagnetic Storm in the next 42 hours (posted 10pm MST)Revised forecasting shows the previously reported incoming solar storm caused by sunspot 1748 has a better chance of hitting us, but it's expected arrival has been pushed out a couple days. ...> Full Article


30% Chance Power systems will mistakenly trip out key assets from the grid in High Latitudes in the next 12-36 hours (5/14/2013)

The NOAA Space Weather Center is predicting that the effects of the storm should start hitting the Earth tonight, and will continue over the next 48 hours. The NOAA has said there is a 30% chance of a Major-severe storm at peak for High Latitudes. ...> Full Article


New analysis suggests wind, not water, formed mound on Mars (5/14/2013)

New analysis suggests wind, not water, formed mound on MarsResearchers based at Princeton University, the California Institute of Technology and Ashima Research suggest that Mars' roughly 3.5-mile high Mount Sharp most likely emerged as strong winds carried dust and sand into Gale Crater where the mound sits. If correct, the research could dilute expectations that the mound is the remnant of a massive lake, which would have important implications for understanding Mars' past habitability. ...> Full Article

NASA's Fermi, Swift see 'shockingly bright' burstA record-setting blast of gamma rays from a dying star in a distant galaxy has wowed astronomers around the world. The eruption, which is classified as a gamma-ray burst, or GRB, and designated GRB 130427A, produced the highest-energy light ever detected from such an event. ...> Full Article
