Original: Powerful solar eruption is heading for Earth and could supercharge the northern lights over the US this week

Space weather watchers are tracking the event for its potential to supercharge auroral displays farther south than usual, depending on how the charged particles interact with Earth's magnetic field.

Why now: The chance of unusually visible auroras over the US this week is drawing wide public interest.
