App Description

If you like astronomy, to explore and learn new exciting things and get great insights into our nearest star’s secret life, this is an app for you!

Witness solar eruptions in near-real-time and know when there is a chance of aurora in your region.

We made a great deal of making all the interesting data available at a glance and we put it all in a pleasant interface, easy to navigate through.

We've also added captions to the presented charts so you can learn more about the Sun and the solar cycle as you use the app.

• Stunning latest observations of the Sun from NASA's SDO spacecraft

• See spectacular eruptions, solar flares captured by the SDO in near-real-time, as they develop

• Current space weather and aurora forecasts from NOAA/SWPC

• Near-real-time ticker displaying the strength of the latest solar flare and the current solar wind speed

• Solar Observatory contains a lot of up-to-date animated content and simulations. Animated WSA-Enlil simulation, for example, shows when a coronal mass ejection, CME or a solar storm will impact the Earth.

Even if you don't know anything about space weather - we've got you covered. You can zoom on every image, chart or animation we present, and read explanation of a particular chart and its role in the space weather puzzle so you can learn and understand.
