A geomagnetic storm with a K-index of 7 or greater (NOAA G3 or higher) is expected between 02:54 and 09:00 UTC on September 15, 2025, potentially causing power system voltage irregularities, spacecraft surface charging and increased satellite drag, intermittent GPS navigation and HF radio disruptions, and auroras visible as far south as Pennsylvania, Iowa, and Oregon.

A problem with the main engine on Northrop Grumman's Cygnus XL spacecraft will keep it from delivering 11,000 pounds of supplies and experiments to the International Space Station as scheduled on Wednesday.

In a statement released Tuesday afternoon, NASA said ground teams are evaluating backup plans that might still allow the Cygnus spacecraft to reach the space station, just not on schedule. The problem arose early Tuesday when the spacecraft's main engine shut down earlier than expected during two burns to boost the ship's orbit for its rendezvous with the ISS, according to NASA.
