Aurora Alert: Major X-Flares and an Incoming CME
After a burst of intense solar activity, the northern lights could glow farther from the usual polar regions around February 5.
Shemini Atzeret (or Shmini Atzeret) is a Jewish holiday dedicated to the love of God. Together with Simchat Torah, it marks the end of the Sukkot (or Sukkoth) festival and is the day on which the yearly cycle of readings from the Torah ends and a new reading cycle begins.
Is Shemini Atzeret a Public Holiday?
Although Shemini Atzeret is not a public holiday, businesses and schools may be closed because it falls on the same date as Day of German Unity in 2026.
Torah scrolls are used as part of the celebrations for Shemini Atzeret.
