A 370.000 km long filament erupted near the Sun's central meridian shortly after noon on 15 July.

Four flavors of a solar eruption

Late on 8 July, an eruption took place in sunspot region NOAA 3053. Using SWHV, an animated mosaic was created showing the flaring event in various wavelengths thus highlighting different features of this long-duration eruption.

The latest sunspot numbers

Sunspot numbers have been waxing and waning over the last few months following closely the 27-days solar rotation period. The higher sunspot numbers coincide with a long-lasting, more active portion on the solar disk.

A filament's bright rim

A filament started to stretch itself to several 100.000 km in length from 15 June onwards. The filament's base was adorned by a bright rim.

Long duration M3 flare

The Sun produced a long duration M3 flare on 13 June. It was accompanied by a coronal mass ejection that delivered a glancing blow to the Earth's magnetic field early on 15 June.

‘Le Soleil et nous’, a popular book written by a scientist of the STCE

Inspired by his career and his experience in popularising science, Frédéric Clette presents us, in this book intended for a wide readership, a global panorama of the Sun, its multiple influences on our planet and us, humans, as well as the new dangers it may bring for our present society.

Heads-up on SC25

The STCE's SC25 Tracking page has been updated to reflect the latest evolution in some critical space weather parameters for the ongoing solar cycle 25 (SC25).
