A new preprint introduces the DIRECD catalog, which details the three-dimensional propagation of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) by analyzing coronal dimmings. This resource, accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal Supplement, is expected to significantly advance solar and space weather research. Understanding CME paths is crucial for predicting space weather impacts on Earth.
