[Regnum] Solar and geomagnetic activity are at very low levels. This was reported on September 2 by the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
"There's almost nothing significant to mention. The graph shows small flares, but they occurred in the west of the Sun, that is, in the active regions extending to its far side," the laboratory reported on its Telegram channel.
Large magnetic structures are observed on the eastern side of the Sun. These may indicate the presence of sunspots, but this has not yet been confirmed. The geomagnetic situation currently remains calm, the post added.
On August 18, Sergei Bogachev, head of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory at the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, reported the onset of a period of geomagnetic instability due to the impact of a coronal hole on Earth. At the time, scientists expected only weak magnetic storms, as no strong solar flares were observed.
Prior to this, on August 12, a G1 magnetic storm was recorded on Earth, lasting approximately four hours. Bogachev previously noted that geomagnetic disturbances would continue to occur regularly for at least the next two years, as the current solar activity cycle declines.
