NASA DONKI
NASA's open database of solar and space-weather events — flares, coronal mass ejections, solar energetic particle events, and interplanetary shocks — served through a public API. Modelled as a real provider with an honest status; no event is shown until it is connected.
Provider status

Modelled from NASA DONKI. No live fetch has occurred in this build; the integration is planned.
What it provides
- Solar flares
- Coronal mass ejections (CMEs)
- Solar energetic particle (SEP) events
- Geomagnetic storms
- Interplanetary shocks
Limitations
Architecture-ready: the DONKI open API is modelled and the fetch interface is defined, but no live connection is established in this build. Solar-event data appears only from a connected provider, never invented.
