G3 Solar Storm Triggers Aurora Borealis Over India

June 8, 2026, science coverage highlighted laboratory, space, or public-health developments.

A G3-class solar storm on June 8, 2026, raised aurora visibility across high-latitude India including Ladakh, Kashmir, and Uttarakhand.

The Hindu reported peak viewing between 11:30 p.m. IST Monday and 2:30 a.m. IST Tuesday, with crimson hues expected at lower latitudes.

Major metros likely missed the display because of light pollution and geographic position, astronomers said.
