The last ten days have been completely peaceful for the country. The activity of the sun has been low, even though our planet has two active points. One of them, AR3315, is five times the size of Earth and was feared to explode, causing a class X solar flare. However, that didn’t happen, and now NOAA’s latest predictions reveal that much of the unstable magnetic field has died. and that the possibility of a class X flare no longer exists. However, the probability of an M-class volcano eruption is still…

Japan and the country’s space agency JAXA have spent decades trying to make solar energy available from space. In 2015, the country made a breakthrough when JAXA researchers sent 1.8 kilowatts of energy, enough to power a kettle, from a radio receiver over 50 meters away. And now Japan is preparing to bring the technology one step closer to reality. Nikkei reports that a Japanese public-private partnership is trying to send solar energy from space as early as 2025. The project, led by Naoki Shinohara, a professor at Kyoto University…
