Solar X-Ray Flux Chart
This chart shows X-ray flux levels as measured by the GOES satellites.
If radio bands go silent suddenly, check this chart for recent flare activity.
Solar Wind
This chart displays a global map of geomagnetic activity over the past 24 hours, as modeled by NOAA’s Geospace system. It uses color-coded intensity zones to show how Earth’s magnetic field is being affected by solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) conditions.
Red and orange zones indicate areas of strong geomagnetic disturbance, often linked to solar storms or coronal mass ejections (CMEs).
Green and blue zones reflect quieter magnetic conditions.
The model is based on real-time solar wind data from satellites like DSCOVR and ACE

🧭 What This Chart Encodes
This chart visualizes relativistic electron fluence forecasts and observations, derived from GOES satellite data and modeled by USAF & NOAA. It tracks high-energy electron levels in Earth’s outer radiation belt, which can affect satellite operations, communications, and space weather conditions.
📊 Key Elements to Mention
- Fluence [MeV/cm²-s-sr]: Measures the intensity of relativistic electrons—particles moving near light speed.
- Observed vs Forecasted:
🟩 Green asterisks = actual observed data (10-day average ± 3-day spread)
🟨 Yellow diamonds = forecast based on 10-day model
🟧 Orange squares = forecast based on 3-day model
- Vertical dashed line: Marks the current verification date
- Logarithmic scale: Y-axis spans from 10⁴ to 10⁷, showing exponential changes in particle fluence.
