Space Weather & Earthquakes

Features & Capabilities

Carrington is a Chrome extension named after the 1859 Carrington Event. It provides real-time space weather data and multi-source Earth monitoring, helping citizen scientists, space enthusiasts, and aurora chasers participate in space weather science rather than merely observe. It streams KP Index, X-ray flux, solar wind, particle flux, radio blackout conditions, and multi-source data on earthquakes and volcanoes worldwide.

Inside, you get interactive visualizations—dashboard gauges, a BLOT Map with layers, a 3D Planet Map, and dozens of solar video streams with ENLIL forecasts. With 28 alert types, location-based notifications, and a path to research via arXiv/OpenAlex, Carrington supports citizen science and academic exploration. Subscription tiers range from Observer (free) to Commander for full access.

User Reviews

Carrington is praised for fast, comprehensive space-weather alerts and rich educational data, with recent updates improving usability and storm-readiness. However, users repeatedly report problems with alert accessibility, poor support, annoying alert volumes, pricing frustrations with the paid tier, and UX regressions after updates. Overall, it’s valuable when functioning, but reliability, communication, and paid-model concerns deter ongoing renewals.

Pros

Fast, real-time alerts for earthquakes, solar events, and weather.
Rich educational data with charts, prices, and additional information.
Improvements in recent versions (e.g., V4.1) and usefulness during geomagnetic storms.
Valuable subscription offering detailed information and safety benefits.
Updates and monitoring that provide information independently of external commentary.

Cons

Alerts and events are sometimes inaccessible or excessively noisy, including blank screens or missing details after updates.
Support and developer responses can be very slow or non-existent.
Paid subscription changes cause dissatisfaction, with price increases or renewal issues impacting users.
Major UI/UX regressions and feature removals after updates (e.g., maps, confusing menus, hard-to-read color schemes) and related bugs.
Free version includes ads and onboarding elements that can feel intrusive or degrade the experience.

I’ve been using this ap for years, the 2026 version is next level.

Glad this app is an option… sure beats having to listen to Ben running his biased mouth off topic all the time just to get the relevant information. I can monitor “the situation” myself and receive updates. Thanks Carrington!

Just recently getting use to the new updates and it not only looks good but works good as well. More educational information has been added with more charts and prices for additional data still is very low in prices per year then I would have expected. I think this is the best version on this app then the previous versions combined. Had it since Ben first released it so keep up the great work! For those looking to download I can tell you I have tried other apps before and this is the best one out there.
