About this deal
A full halo Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) left the Sun at approximately 10:50 UT on 9 th November 2023, associated with a filament eruption from an Earth-facing active region on the sun. The CME is expected to arrive late on 11 th November and is likely to lead to a significant enhancement in geomagnetic activity, making moderate geomagnetic STORM periods possible. The current solar wind speed is already disturbed due to coronal hole influence. Disk space is stored internally in bytes - not very useful, so I use number_format() to convert to Gigabytes (proper base 1024 ones ) rounded to two decimal places. You can adjust the number of decimal places by changing the number after the comma. In addition to his extensive writing experience, Chris has been interviewed as a technology expert on TV news and radio shows. He gave advice on dark web scans on Miami's NBC 6, discussed Windows XP's demise on WGN-TV's Midday News in Chicago, and shared his CES experiences on WJR-AM's Guy Gordon Show in Detroit.
The threat of space weather to national infrastructure, UK industry and the wider public is such that in 2011 it was added to the Government National Risk Register of Civil Emergencies. In response, the Met Office Space Weather Operations Centre (MOSWOC) was created to provide the critical information needed to help protect the country from the serious threats posed by severe space weather events. What causes space weather?Space Alert relies heavily on teamwork and communication, so playing without VOIP is not recommended. Chris was a PCWorld columnist for two years. He founded PCWorld's "World Beyond Windows" column, which covered the latest developments in open-source operating systems like Linux and Chrome OS. Beyond the column, he wrote about everything from Windows to tech travel tips. There are two types of threats: external and internal. [5] External threats spawn outside the ship and are usually dealt with by shooting lasers or missiles. Internal threats spawn inside the ship. All threats are categorized as serious or common threats. Serious threats, if not dealt with, usually end in a substantial amount of damage. Solar Wind / Geomagnetic Activity:Solar wind speeds have been at slightly elevated levels. Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF), was weak, with north-south component also weak and variable in direction. Geomagnetic activity was Quiet (Kp 0-2).
Assuming clear dark skies, there is an increased chance of seeing the aurora tomorrow evening and on 12 th November. Those in Scotland, northern England and Northern Ireland have the best chance if the weather is favourable.

Video showing the CME leaving the Sun on 9 th November. Movie is generated using Helioviewer.org with images from SOHO/LASCO (ESA/NASA) and the Solar dynamics Observatory satellite (NASA). Primarily intended for 4 or 5 players. 1-3 players is possible within the rules, but far less fun/interesting.
