Space Weather Dashboard
Real-time monitoring of solar and geomagnetic activity affecting Earth's magnetosphere and space environment.
Solar Wind Parameters
X-Ray Flux (Solar Flares)
Magnetosphere Simulation
This 3D visualization shows how the solar wind interacts with Earth's magnetic field, creating the magnetosphere. Current solar wind conditions affect the simulation.
Drag to rotate, scroll to zoom. The visualization shows how solar wind particles (yellow) flow around Earth's magnetosphere and how the field lines (blue) are compressed on the day side.

Space weather refers to the environmental conditions in space as influenced by the Sun and the solar wind. It can impact satellite operations, GPS accuracy, power grids, and create beautiful auroras.
This dashboard displays real-time data from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center and NASA APIs, visualizing current conditions and providing alerts for significant space weather events.
Key Indicators
- Solar Wind: Stream of charged particles flowing from the Sun
- Kp Index: Measure of geomagnetic activity (0-9 scale)
- X-ray Flux: Indicator of solar flare activity
- CMEs: Coronal Mass Ejections, massive eruptions of plasma from the Sun
