What you're seeing

One globe. Three live layers.

Everything on screen is real and current — polled from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center, reduced on our own pipeline, and repainted as conditions change.

Aurora oval
—GW hemispheric power

Where the light reaches

NOAA's OVATION model, sampled straight onto the globe. When the oval swells toward the equator, the aurora follows — tonight's view line sits near —.

Solar wind

The stream you're standing in

Plasma measured a million miles upwind, time-shifted to arrival. Watch Bz — currently — nT. When it swings hard south, storms follow within hours.

Drag shells
—/100 surge index

Satellites feel it too

Storm heating inflates the upper atmosphere and drags on everything in low orbit. Shells tint by altitude band when the surge builds.

Terra — for precision GNSS

Storms bend GPS.
Terra tells you when.

The May 2024 Gannon storm cost precision-GPS farmers an estimated $1 billion+ in a single planting week (NOAA SWPC). If your work rides on RTK-corrected positioning, a storm forecast is a scheduling decision.

Astra — research track

After the storm: what did it actually do?

Astra reconstructs a storm's fingerprint on specific orbits — drag signatures mined from the public satellite catalog, validated blind against documented events. It becomes a product only when the accuracy earns it. Until then: open post-storm write-ups.
