๐ŸŒŒ Space Weather & Aurora

Real-time space weather and aurora visualisation powered by NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center. The Ovation Prime aurora probability grid is rendered as colour-coded particles at 120 km altitude on a globe.gl WebGL globe. A live stats panel shows the planetary Kp geomagnetic index, solar wind speed and density, and the critical IMF Bz component โ€” all updated every 5 minutes from DSCOVR satellite data.
