Ladakh’s sky turned blood-red. It wasn’t just beautiful - it was a warning
A powerful solar radiation storm, the most intense since 2003, caused a rare red aurora over Hanle, Ladakh. This event, triggered by an X-class solar flare and Coronal Mass Ejection, highlighted Earth's vulnerability to solar activity. Scientists warn of more such events as the Sun approaches solar maximum, emphasizing the need for early warning systems and infrastructure reinforcement.
