A erupted with M1 and M6 class solar flares. Watch the fireworks in these views from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory.
An M3-class solar flare that lasted about 3 hours created a massive coronal mass ejection. The Solar Dynamics Observatory ...
A first-of-its-kind artificial intelligence system built by Nasa in collaboration with IBM can predict violent solar storms threatening satellites and power grids two hours before they erupt from the ...
The sun has a bone to pick with Earth — and it’s not done yet. A colossal solar storm just zapped the daylight side of the planet, causing global blackouts and knocking out radio signals across Europe ...
Research by university scientists suggests that solar flares may be far hotter than previously believed, offering new insights into the Sun’s behavior. The findings, recently published in the ...
A high-powered solar flare erupted from the sun last week, causing a major radio blackout in Europe and Asia. The eruption happened at 3:25 a.m., meaning that the sun wasn't in the Texas sky at the ...
NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory captured a M7.9-class solar flare. See footage of the blast in multiple wavelengths. Credit: Space.com | footage courtesy: NASA/SDO/helioviewer.org | edited by Steve Sp ...
The sun unleashed another strong X-class solar flare overnight, stronger than the one that occurred on Tuesday — an X2.7, the strongest so far this year. X-class flares are the strongest and most ...
Solar flares are intense bursts of light and particles from the sun. And while they can pose hazards for things like satellites, they are also beautiful, dramatic and incredibly hot. NPR's Nell ...
The sun may be 93 million miles away, but that does not stop its solar activity from affecting the Earth's atmosphere, a new study from Queen's University Belfast as found. The Earth's atmosphere is ...
New research from the University of St Andrews has proposed that particles in solar flares are 6.5 times hotter than previously thought. The research provides an unexpected solution to a 50-year-old ...
