Caught our home star this afternoon, courtesy of low clouds and fog. If you look closely, you will see a sunspot.

NASA says solar activity is increasing:

The sun has become more and more active over the last 16 years, in a turn that surprised scientists and could affect space weather, NASA said.

Out for a walk in Telluride, CO... here for the Horror Film Festival...
First time seeing Aurora, even with trips way north.
Pink is rare, more so this far south, high activity
Other half is an astronomer & space weather scientist, she is very excited!

There's a loose correlation with economic activity and solar activity. Maybe. Someone tell me if I'm seeing things. I have an explanation if it's not my biases.

Hint: cars and factory activity. Most recently, data centers.

@earthskyscience.bsky.social

March saw some fiery #solaractivity, including multiple M (moderate) flares and even an X (strong) flare. And, sure enough, NOAA's newly announced sunspot number for March shows an increase in overall activity from February. Read today's #sun news:
