Carrington

CARRINGTON, WATCH THE FORCES THAT MOVE THE WORLD

In 1859, a solar storm set telegraph wires sparking across the planet. We call it the Carrington Event. Back then, only the telegraph was wired. Today, everything is, satellites, power grids, GPS, the device in your hand. It happened before. It will happen again. The only question is whether you'll be watching.

Carrington puts the planet's biggest natural forces on one live screen: space weather, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, and the health of the oceans. Most apps give you a single window. We show you the whole system, the real-time data, the open science, and the connections the standard models keep in separate boxes. Then we let you decide for yourself.

SPACE WEATHER, LIVE
• KP index & geomagnetic storms, 1-minute and 3-hour updates
• X-ray flux, solar flare activity (B, C, M, X class)
• Solar wind at L1 from NOAA RTSW, SOLAR-1 and ACE, plus IMAP & Wind with Advanced
• Proton & electron flux, F10.7, sunspots, magnetometer, cosmic rays
• TEC, DRAP & geoelectric fields for radio and grid conditions

EARTH & HAZARD MONITORING
• Earthquakes, live global, multi-source
• Volcanoes, activity plus stratospheric-injection tracking
• Tsunamis, official warnings and DART buoy data
• Aurora, OVATION forecasts with visibility
• Ocean health (AMOC), Atlantic circulation, watched in real time

THE OBSERVATORY, EARTHQUAKE RESEARCH UNDER LIVE TESTING
Published and Carrington-built earthquake research methods, run live and shown openly as map heatmaps and a daily global earthquake probability set against its baseline. ETAS aftershock clustering, EEPAS medium-term build-up, deep-quake watch zones, and ionospheric (TEC) watches, clearly labeled for what they are, including when a signal doesn't hold up. We forecast probabilistically and show our work. These are research watches, not official alerts: for safety, use USGS and your local civil authorities.

INTERACTIVE MAPS & VISUALS
• G.E.C. Map, named for the Global Electric Circuit, 55+ toggleable 2D/3D layers: quakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, plate boundaries, aurora, wind, ocean, magnetic field & more
• 3D Planet Map, explore the solar system with real orbital data
• 80+ live solar video streams (SDO, GOES, SOHO)
• ENLIL solar-wind models from NOAA & NASA, plus UK Met Office HUXt runs with Premium
• NOAA's newest WSA-ENLIL CME model run in 3D, rendered by Carrington from NOAA open data, full screen with zoom (Advanced)

NOTIFICATIONS
• Space weather: flares, KP, proton & radio storms, NOAA watches and more
• Plus earthquake, volcano, volcanic-ash advisory, tsunami, cosmic-ray and ocean-buoy notifications
• Location-matched notifications for reported quakes, volcanic activity and aurora visibility near your saved places
• L1 lead-time research watches, from solar-wind data measured upstream of Earth

OPEN SCIENCE, NOT SETTLED SCIENCE
Carrington is built for people who'd rather see the data than be told a story. Read the research papers behind every focus area, see where the science is still debated, and join a community that reviews it. We show you the hypotheses, the evidence, and the honest results, and let you watch the Sun–Earth connection unfold yourself.

PLANS
