🔎 Today’s Daily Sift: Space ~Solar Weather Intensifies A powerful solar storm hits with high-energy particle spikes and multiple CMEs. Satellites, navigation networks, and grid operators shift into alert mode as solar maximum flexes harder than forecast. ~New Cosmic Cartography Astronomers release the first real map of the Sun’s outer boundary using Parker Solar Probe data. It redraws how we understand solar wind formation and space-weather propagation. ~Gravity’s Deep Theater A nearby star’s w

Solar Activity Report: December 1-7, 2025 Solar activity remained at the C-class flare intensity level throughout the week, characterized by impulsive flares. The most notable events included an X1.9 flare on December 1 from active region 14299—the strongest flare of the reporting period—an M6.0 flare from active region 14300 on December 4, and an M8.1 flare on December 6 from active region 14299, all occurring in the northern hemisphere. The largest active region, 14294, in the southern hemisph
