📆 04 July 2022 Over the past year, ’s 🛰️ constellation started dropping in the ten times faster than before. ☀️ causes an upwelling of the atmosphere. That means that the denser air shifts upwards to higher altitudes. The denser air creates more for 🛰️. One benefit of the increase in is that it can help make 🗑️ descend and disintergrate in the atmosphere. independent.co.uk/space/solar-

Oh, Parker Solar Probe, grand and bright,
Your mission, to capture cosmic flight.
You've taken the bravest of steps
And found what's next
You've seen the ultimate sight!

Stefano Bianco, GFZ, Helmoltz Center Potsdam: An interpretable model forecasting the solar wind speed from solar images

Current wind [] models are physics-based, having limitations:
complex equations, long propagation in space-time

combining more diverse data to capture finer effects using deep learning

Now we know how a solar storm took out a fleet of Starlinks

by Carolyn Collins, April 3, 2023

"The folks at Starlink found that out the hard way in February 2022. On January 29th that year, the sun belched out a class M 1.1 flare and related coronal mass ejection. Material from the sun traveled out on the solar wind and arrived at Earth a few days later. On February 3, Starlink launched a group of 49 satellites to an altitude only 130 miles above Earth's surface. They didn't last long, and now solar physicists know why."

SURPRISE GEOMAGNETIC STORM: Surprising forecasters, a crack opened in Earth's magnetic field on May 19th. wind poured through the gap, sparking a G2-class storm. Naked-eye auroras were visible across many northern-tier US states while photographic auroras descended as far south as Missouri (latitude +40.2N):

"'The night started off with a surprise passage of satellites whose 21 or so members flared to incredibly bright for a few seconds,' says photographer Dan Bush of Albany, Missouri. 'Then the red auroras came and were visible to my camera for about an hour or so.'

"This event was probably caused by a near-miss --one of many that left the sun last week on trajectories slightly off the sun-Earth line. South-pointing magnetic fields in the CME's wake washed over Earth. Those south-pointing fields partially cancelled Earth's north-pointing magnetic field, lowering our defenses against the solar wind."

Heavy geomagnetic storm now. Aurora is a likely consequence.
