1/2 The #geomagnetic reversal of the #earth combined with sound. Watching this video from #ESA @GFZ with my #synesthesia makes me nervous: youtube.com/watch?v=_blivWRpp80

It seems to be more a composition than exact sound mathematics? I see-hear the differences between picture and sound. And I can't hear any cacophony.

I imagine music in real translation of the paleomagnetic data, a transformation of data into sound ... that would be an experience!

Earth remains under the influence of a waning high-speed #SolarWind ☀️ stream. No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (#CMEs) were observed over the past 24 hours. Earth’s #geomagnetic field 🌐 was unsettled to active over the past day. earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

The #geomagnetic storm could pose risks to critical infrastructure, #NOAA said, including possible widespread voltage ⚡ control issues causing power grids to fail, #satellite #navigation being inaccurate by up to tens of meters and low-frequency radio disruption. #NewYork City Emergency Management said the geomagnetic storm could cause other issues as its intensity may vary throughout the event forbes.com/sites/tylerroush/20

No Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (#CMEs) were observed in available coronagraph imagery.
Current #geomagnetic activity: Earth’s magnetic field is quiet. Unsettled condition are expected to begin on September 8 due to fast solar ☀️ wind reaching Earth from a coronal hole moving into geoeffective position. This should extend into 📆 September 9 earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

A surprising 😲 #geomagnetic storm hit and disturbed Earth’s geomagnetic field early today. A G2 (moderate) geomagnetic storm level was observed and a G1 (minor) storming was ongoing at the time of this writing. It seems the expected glancing blow from a #CME that left the sun ☀️ on August 23 was a stronger hit. earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

Earth’s magnetic field is quiet at the time of this writing. The #geomagnetic field is likely to continue at mostly quiet levels on August 26. Periods of active conditions are expected over 📆 August 27-28 due to the anticipated glancing-blow arrival of a coronal mass ejection (#CME) from August 23 earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-acti

A rare severe geomagnetic storm watch is issued for the first time in nearly 20 years amid "unusual" solar event.

CBS News quotes the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA): "Geomagnetic storms can impact infrastructure in near-Earth orbit and on Earth's surface, potentially disrupting communications, the electric power grid, navigation, radio and satellite operations."

The #CMEs travel at different speeds but are expected to arrive together at Earth by late Friday, 📆 May 10 or early Saturday, 📆 May 11. When fast-moving CMEs overtake slower CMEs in front of them, shock waves of their collision "do a good job sparking #geomagnetic storms when they strike Earth's magnetic field." forbes.com/sites/jamiecartereu

Forbes · Prepare For Northern Lights In The U.S. This Weekend After Intense Solar Activity, Say ScientistsBy Jamie Carter

#SolarFlares, #Spaceweather via Spaceweather.com And there's a reason I held onto my eclipse glasses. Read on...

"THIS SUNSPOT IS HUGE: Sunspot #AR3664 has grown so large, it is now visually rivaling the great #Carrington sunspot of Sept. 1859. To illustrate their similarity, Carrington's famous sketch (to scale) has been added to a picture of today's sun:

"How big is AR3664? Sprawling almost 200,000 km from end to end, it is 15 times wider than Earth. You can see AR3664 through ordinary eclipse glasses with no magnification at all. Moreover, it is easy to project an image of this sunspot onto the sidewalk or a white screen just as Carrington did in the 19th century.

"Carrington's sunspot is famous because in August and Sept. 1859 it emitted a series of intense #SolarFlares and #CMEs. The resulting #geomagnetic storms set fire to telegraph offices and sparked auroras from Cuba to Hawaii. The '#CarringtonEvent' has since become a touchstone of space weather in pop culture, with headlines stoking fears of an "internet apocalypse" if it repeats. Recent studies suggest that Carrington-class storms occur once every 40 to 60 years, so we're overdue.

"Does this mean we're about to get hit by another Carrington Event? Probably not. Big sunspots don't always produce big CMEs. Indeed, the CME AR3664 hurled toward us earlier today is puny compared to the CMEs of 1859. It won't cause much trouble when it arrives this weekend. Nevertheless, it would be wise to keep an eye on this growing active region while Earth is in its strike zone."
