What's going on with storms on the sun?
Time
|June 10, 2024
IT HAS BEEN A SEASON OF SKY PAGEANTS. MARCH 24 and 25 saw a lunar eclipse across the Americas, Europe, and North and East Asia. April 8 featured the total solar eclipse in North America.
And in early May, earthlings were treated to a spectacular light show when a geomagnetic explosion on the sun, known as a coronal mass ejection, produced a colorful display of the aurora borealis, a phenomenon usually limited to the north polar region, but visible this time around as far south as Alabama in the U.S. and at similar latitudes around the world.
Coronal mass ejections produce not just spectacle, but also potentially deadly mischief. When the energy from the sun collides with Earth, it can disrupt satellites, send GPS systems awry, knock power plants offline, and shut down telecommunications.
So what's going on out there, and how can we prepare?

The fractured agenda
BY THE TIME NEGOTIATORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD gathered in the Amazonian city of Belém in November to discuss the future of climate action, the world had already experienced an alarming year: near-record global temperatures, unprecedented heat waves across continents, and extreme flooding that scientists say would have been virtually impossible without human-driven warming.

AI'S NEXT FRONTIER IS HERE
In 1950, when computing was little more than automated arithmetic and simple logic, Alan Turing asked a question that reverberates today: Can machines think? It took remarkable imagination to see what he saw—intelligence might someday be built rather than born.
