Solar flares are the most powerful explosions in the solar system, and can contain as much energy as a billion hydrogen bombs ...

Solar flares are caused when magnetic energy builds up in the sun's atmosphere and is released in an intense burst of electromagnetic radiation. They are categorized by size into lettered groups ...

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured sunspot AR3386 blast a long-duration X1.6-class solar flare. See at time-lapse of ...

A potent M8.46-class solar flare on June 15 caused radio blackouts across North America, with a coronal mass ejection potentially impacting Earth on June 18.

The most powerful eruption of 2025 so far was observed last week, and caused a 10-minute period of 'degraded communications' for high-frequency radio systems in the Middle East.

In the span of two days last week, the sun released two strong solar flares — meaning the solar system experienced its most powerful explosions which can cause some communications blackouts on ...

A violent solar eruption on May 31 launched a coronal mass ejection (CME) hurtling toward Earth, triggering a rare G4-level ...
