Japan to review support for large-scale solar projectsーNHK WORLD-JAPAN NEWS #shorts

When the Sun erupts three times in 48 hours, Earth feels it ☀️ In November 2025, our star unleashed a rapid sequence of solar outbursts that swept across space and triggered a severe geomagnetic storm here on Earth. Scientists detected radio blackouts lasting up to an hour, rare high-energy particles breaking through our magnetic shield, and stunning auroras far from the poles. Even so, the storm caused minimal disruption on the ground, and our missions - from low-Earth orbit to deep space - rec

Solar storms may be invisible, but they can quietly knock out satellites, blackout power grids, and disrupt global communications. Scientists call this space weather—and for decades, it was hard to monitor in real time. That’s where the Daocheng Solar Radio Telescope (DSRT) comes in. Perched 3,820 meters above sea level in southwest China, DSRT is the world’s largest solar radio telescope of its kind. Its 313 antennas form a one-kilometer-wide ring around a 100-meter calibration tower, scanning
