Black and white image of the expanding clouds.

Expansion of the remnant on the upper right. Moving knots on the lower left. Fast changing regions are the light echo from the light of the explosion. #JWST NIRCam F444W images.

There not only an expansion of the bright material, but also new bright material appearing (center in the upper left). Maybe an astronomer can explain this. Material that only now gets shocked?

Material moving towards the lower right with new material seemingly appearing at the upper left rim.

A transequatorial coronal hole is facing Earth. Enhanced solar wind could arrive in ~3 days

"(Paraphrased from NOAA SWPC's recent forecast discussion)

https://www.spaceweather.gov/products/forecast-discussion

Very low activity: a few B-class flares from Region 4560 near the west limb. Two CMEs off the NE limb aren't expected at Earth; no Earth-directed CMEs.

.

Solar wind was calm, slowing to ~350 km/s with no real southward Bz, and Earth stayed quiet. A small negative-polarity coronal hole stream plus possible glancing blows from Oct 21 CMEs could bring active conditions (Kp 4), maybe G1 (Kp 5), today. Quiet to unsettled Oct 26-27.

The fast solar wind from a negative polarity coronal hole is expected to reach Earth soon. Inside the fast wind, the Bz tends to swing north and south, which can bring several rounds of substorms at high latitudes.

Both Suns are from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. The yellow Sun is visible light, with sunspot regions labeled with NOAA's flare chances, and the purple Sun is extreme ultraviolet, with coronal holes outlined in green.

Here is how AR 4560 (highest flare chances) evolved over the last 24 hours, in visible light (top) and the magnetic field (bottom).

Kp is a 3-hour average of activity around the globe, so NOAA's Kp forecast can miss short substorms. Use real-time tools to catch them.

'Ethereal Aurora' is a film by Seán Doran made with images courtesy eol.jsc.nasa.gov and 'It Will Make You Feel Better If You Put It In the Right Place' by Chris Zabriskie

'Experience the hypnotic and ethereal beauty of aurora as seen from The International Space Station, the original 13 minute duration is shown here in 3x real time.'

1,915 images from a time-lapse sequence photographed by Anil Menon on ISS Expedition 75 are repaired, remastered and retimed. 13,565 additional frames are created to complete this 3x real time video footage. A method called frame interpolation is used to calculate the extra video frames required to re-create the smooth motion of ISS orbiting Earth.
