With the Sun and Moon at right angles, their pulls
11
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:05.959
partially cancel out NASA's space weather trackers. Also note a

burst of solar material was seen leaving the Sun. A

scientists have found that certain types of auroras on Mars
21
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:50.959
form in a similar way. AI helped gather today's update
