Historical data

Choose a measurement and a date range to explore earlier observations. Each source covers a different period; solar-cycle records are monthly, not daily.

Aurora Forecast

Browse the dates covered by the current source. Missing dates are not evidence of quiet conditions. Monthly solar-cycle observations extend further back than the live satellite feeds.

Can I compare all these records directly?

Align UTC times, units and sampling periods first. A flare peak, a three-hour Kp value and a monthly sunspot count describe different things.

Why is my selected period empty?

Each source has limited coverage and may have gaps. Check the available dates and chosen measurement; no record is not a measured zero.

Public scientific observations and forecasts may be delayed or revised. Forecasts are not guarantees of aurora visibility or operational safety. Follow official advice for critical decisions.
