Anybody have any insight into the effect of the #Solarstorm on the crew of #Artemis ? We appear to be having a G1/2 level storm right now. Yes I know they are on their way to the moon.

Artemis 2 : 80 % de chance de décoller la nuit du 1er avril selon la Nasa, malgré la tempête solaire

L'immense SLS avec 4 astronautes à son bord va enfin prendre part à la mission habitée la plus ambitieuse depuis Apollo 17 en 1972. L'hydrogène et l'hélium ont été maîtrisés, et malgré une éruption solaire, la Nasa est confiante pour un décollage le 1er avril, et ce n'est pas un poisson.

NASA targets April 1st for Artemis II — first crewed Moon mission since Apollo. A solar flare means a CME arrives right at liftoff. The good news? It's a glancing blow, low on energetic particles — probably not a dealbreaker. The wildcard: sunspot AR4405 is still active. More X-flares could force a schedule rethink. 🌞 Stay tuned.

Wow, the solar storm really made things difficult this weekend. Only manages a few contacts, but it was still fun!

#NASA says the #Artemis II crew can ... move equipment 🛍️ around within the capsule to effectively thicken its walls in the direction from which the #SolarStorm is coming

WARNING :: INCOMING FIRE On Thursday, March 19, 2026, at 7:00am EST to 01:00pm EST, a ClassM Solar flare impacts our magnetosphere. Our electronic communications and power infrastructures need to be shielded. #EMP #SolarStorm #Earth #Magnetosphere #VanAllenBelts #Electronics #Shielding

Could a powerful geomagnetic storm be the reason 8,000 Victorian homes suddenly lost power in January this year?

I had a chat with Dr Richard Marshall from Australian Bureau of Meteorology Space Weather about the origin of solar storms and the risks they present to our communities and critical infrastructure.

So great to be able to have such fantastic and professional insights about these important events and how we, as a society, need to mitigate against them.

#Starlink is doing one collision avoidance maneuver every two minutes on average. Starlink recently announced they’re moving down to 350 km, shifting #satellites 🛰️ to even lower orbits. Everybody has to go through that really dense shell - including #ISS, including #astronauts.
