With NASA preparing for the Artemis II launch (expected tomorrow, 1 April), a strong solar flare earlier this week is putting space weather back into focus—and highlighting the unpredictable risks astronauts could face beyond Earth's atmosphere.

A massive solar flare produced a coronal mass ejection (CME) heading toward Earth, raising concerns for the Artemis II moon mission.

A strong solar flare emitted from the sun just days before the Artemis II launch, but NASA said they aren't concerned about it.

A massive solar flare could leave Nasa's Moon mission in peril after a solar incident triggered radio blackouts this week. The solar eruption came from a group of sunspots that are now moving further into Earth's view.

During the Artemis II mission launched Wednesday, NASA will test out a pair of new solar radiation forecasts, developed at University of Michigan Engineering, designed to protect astronauts venturing away from Earth.

An X1.4 solar flare triggered radio blackouts and launched a fast CME as NASA prepares for its Artemis 2 moon mission.

NASA is testing new solar radiation forecasting model on Artemis II to give astronauts earlier warnings of dangerous radiation in deep space.

The Sun released a strong solar flare on Tuesday, Feb. 3, following several eruptions in the preceding days, raising the possibility of increased geomagnetic storm activity. Nasa’s Solar Dynamic Observatory captured the event, classifying it as an X1.5 flare
