The Sun Runs the Show

Space Weather News is the daily record of what the Sun is doing and how it reaches down to Earth. Each day, Ben Davidson and the Suspicious0bservers team read the same data the observatories publish and turn it into a plain-language briefing: what the Sun did overnight, what is heading our way, and what it means for the days ahead.

That daily habit is the reason Observer Ranch exists. The property, the events calendar, and the Learning Center all grew out of the community that formed around watching the sky and the data together. This page is the home base for that connection, whether you follow along online or come see it in person.

What the daily briefing covers

• Solar flares, sunspots, and coronal mass ejections
• Geomagnetic storms and the aurora
• Cosmic rays and the forces that drive them
• The links between space weather and our weather, seismic activity, and earth changes
• Long-cycle research on the disaster cycle and pole shift

From the screen to the ranch

Observer Ranch is where the online community meets in person. Space-weather mini-conferences, preparedness workshops, and live talks with Ben all happen here, under some of Colorado's darkest skies near the Royal Gorge. Members get the full video observatory year round, plus discounts on stays and full access to the facilities when they visit.
