NASA detects CME rushing out of ‘canyon of fire’; Solar storm could strike on Nov 4

We are a little less than a year away from looking at the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and the Flip 6, but it appears that Samsung already has plans in place for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 because, based on the information that we have received, the company is currently working on PHOLED (Phosphorescent OLED), this is the type of material that Samsung is currently only using for green and red pixels, but by 2025, the company plans on introducing the same with blue pixels.

Against the Storm, the dark fantasy city builder developed by Eremite Games, will leave early access on December 8, according to a recently published blog update shared on Steam.

Eremite Games’ Against the Storm, a roguelite city-builder, is exiting Steam Early Access on December 8th. It’s also launching day one on PC Game Pass. Check out the announcement trailer, which also explains how the game works.

Heroes of the Storm has just been updated with the patch! We would like to take a moment to thank the community for providing insight and feedback for these changes.

Spotify announced a partnership with Google Cloud on Thursday in a move that will see the music streaming platform leverage Google's AI tech. In a release, Google Cloud revealed that Spotify will leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to identify users' listening patterns including podcasts and audiobooks to provide tailored content and recommendations. Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud said, “Through this expanded partnership, Google Cloud's AI tools are helping Spotify to elevate the listening experience for its customers. Spotify also recognizes the potential AI can have across their business, and together, we will continue to deliver innovative technologies that benefit their business.”

The Sun has turned volatile and its activity is expected to increase further as the peak of solar cycle 25 comes closer. The current solar cycle has already exceeded expectations, with more number of sunspots already seen than predicted. Earth could be in line to face CMEs, solar flares, solar storms, and other particles with potentially disastrous consequences in the coming weeks and months.

Solar winds have been part of the reason behind the recent series of solar storms that have struck the Earth in the last couple of weeks. They either sparked solar storm incidents or amplified an active storm. But often, we tend to overlook its potential to cause damage when compared to solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CME). However, as per NASA officials and research papers, these stellar winds are capable of not only sparking solar storms but also triggering forest fires, and damaging spacecraft, potentially putting the lives of astronauts in danger.

Yesterday, the NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) detected a coronal mass ejection (CME) that appeared to be coming towards the Earth. The early assessment revealed that it could hit the Earth in the late hours of November 11, although it wasn't clear whether the strike would be a direct one or a glancing blow. Earlier today, NASA ran the data through its prediction model and we have a much clearer picture of what is to come. The CME is now expected to hit the Earth tomorrow, November 12. It is also expected to be a head-on collision, and the solar storm can reach an intensity of G2-class.

There is no doubt that Samsung is singlehandedly responsible for bringing foldable phones to the market and starting a trend that we are now seeing in full swing. However, the one thing with most foldable phones that prevents most people from choosing them is the price, but that could change as the South Korean tech giant releases a more affordable foldable next year.

Even with just six Earth-facing active sunspots on the Sun, the solar activity in the last fortnight has been more intense than many months combined this year. This is the second most intense solar storm spell we have seen since March when two G3-class storms were spotted in the same month. To make matters worse, it is not likely to stop anytime soon. The NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) has detected a halo-shaped coronal mass ejection (CME) headed towards the Earth. The data highlights that it will make strike the Earth tomorrow, November 11, in the late hours, triggering a solar storm that can be as intense as G2-class.

Prepare to be captivated by the latest visual treat from NASA as the space agency has unveiled a breathtaking image of an aurora taken from the International Space Station (ISS) after a solar storm strike. The celestial spectacle unfolded above Utah, USA, on a Sunday night, casting a radiant green glow that painted the night sky with an otherworldly charm.

There are some things we know about solar storms. First is that they strike the Earth near the polar region, due to the magnetic field lines of our planet. We also know that this is why auroras are primarily seen in the high latitude regions, as due to high concentrations of charged particles in the atmosphere, oxygen and nitrogen get ionized and create these fantastic colors. As the charged particles move down south, the charged particles dissipate and auroras are not visible. However, the solar storm strike on the night of November 5 and early morning of November 6 might well have created history after sparking auroras as far south as the equator itself.
