more Solar wind, rebuilt
The animation now shows the real coronal mass ejections heading for
Earth: where each one has got to, and how long before it arrives.
• Several clouds are often in flight at once — all of them are drawn.
• Colour says how strong: a weak one stays quiet, a real storm shows.
• Tap for the detail: speed, direct hit or glancing blow, Kp expected.
Arrival times now come from NOAA's own propagation, which also sharpened
the charts.

2.0.0 Aug 26
Aurora Compass rebuilt: the disc now shows the sky above you, from horizon to zenith, instead of a flat map. It's accurate at every latitude, the forecast is interpolated for finer detail, and each probability now comes with how high to look and how far away it is.
1.9.0 Aug 24
Solar wind data is back
Solar wind readings — speed, density, Bz and Bt — stopped loading after NOAA retired the data feed the app relied on. Everything now reads from their new feed, and the charts are live again.
NOAA also switches between several spacecraft stationed at the L1 point, so the app now shows which one the current data is coming from instead of always naming DSCOVR.
We're sorry for the blank charts. Thank you for your patience, and for the reports that helped us track this down.
