Here we go! NASA M2M WSA-ENLIL+Cone model for the full-halo CME from the X1.2 flare today indicates direct impact on Nov 12th, 3-4h UTC (+/-7h). G2-G3 storm conditions possible.
Impressive full-halo CME in CCOR-1 images after the X1.2 flare in AR 4274 earlier this morning. This one is heading for us. Awaiting model predictions, but impact in about 36-48 hrs seems likely. Wouldn't be surprised if SWPC issues a G3 watch for this one.

In the last seven days, we shipped six new features. Here's a quick recap of what we launched 👇

Flying in fighter jets was such an important part of our astronaut training and we were thrilled to fly in them again for the 4 year anniversary of our space mission! Thanks for the ride @rookisaacman

The X1.2 flare produced an impressive full-halo CME, with the bulk directed NW and a notable Earth-directed component. Combined with the previous CME, this event could drive strong geomagnetic activity, strong G3–G4 storm potential.

Impressive, nearly perfectly circular halo CME heading towards Earth from another X flare in the northern hemisphere (AR 4274). This one, combined with the previous one, may result in G3 conditions at Earth in a couple days.

I've summarized the truth about Loeb's 10 "anomalies" about 3I/ATLAS in one post. Thanks to @Deschscoveries, Michael Busch, @aciqra, and @TMEubanks for contributing their expertise! https://t.co/psonqLVhd0

Avi Loeb continues to claim that 3I/ATLAS has many anomalous behaviors that lead to the conclusion that it “might” be an alien spacecraft. He carefully hedges the probability that it is a spacecraft...

Getting Rosalind Franklin’s story right is crucial, because she has become a role model for women going into science https://t.co/wR8fBl5cNJ

Nature - Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

Deja vu! Exactly 26 hours after Active Region 4274 produced an X1.7 flare, it generated an X1.2 flare (R3-Strong on the NOAA Scales) at 10/0919 UTC. As Region 4274 continues to maintain a complex magnetic structure, additional flares are possible for the next 24-48 hours.

PROBABLY THIS IS THE MOST UNDERVALUED COMPANY ON NASDAQ — ACCORDING TO WARREN BUFFETT-STYLE ANALYSIS When Warren Buffett said, “Price is what you pay, value is what you get,” he was describing companies exactly like NextNRG Inc ($NXXT). It’s a business producing real revenue,

An interesting note on @SLDelta45's Mission Execution Forecast for @blueorigin's New Glenn launch is that they mention concerns about space weather. Forecasters expect moderate geomagnetic storms due to CMEs from sunspot 4274.
