The event occurred in 2012, near the local maximum of sunspots that can be seen in this graph.. At 02:08 UT on 23 July 2012, a large coronal mass ejection (CME) was launched from the Sun. [3] The eruption emanated from solar active region 11520 and coincided with what was at most an X2.5-class solar flare. [4]
M-class flares are a tenth the size of X-class flares with the same numeric suffix. [23] An X2 is four times more powerful than an M5 flare. [24] X-class flares with a peak flux that exceeds 10 −3 W/m 2 may be noted with a numerical suffix equal to or greater than 10. This system was originally devised in 1970 and included only the letters C ...
By MORGAN WHITAKER New video released by NASA Thursday captures the spectacular instant the sun fired off a solar flare in Earth's direction. The video shows the coronal mass ejection that created ...
May 2024 solar storms: X1.2(X1.3)-class flares [93] and X4.5-class flare. [94] The flares with a magnitude of 6–7 occurred between 30 April and 4 May 2024. On 5 May the strength of the solar storm reached 5 points, which is considered strong according to the K-index. The rapidly growing sunspot AR3663 became the most active spot of the 25th ...
It's the biggest flare of this 11-year solar cycle, which is approaching its peak, according to NOAA. The sun produced its biggest flare in nearly a decade Tuesday, just days after severe solar ...
Four solar flares occurred within 5 days from sunspot AR 12192, which is both the largest sunspot of solar cycle 24 and the largest since 1990. On October 19 there was a major X1.1-class solar flare. On October 22 an M8.7-class flare was followed by an X1.6 event. The October 24 X3.1-class solar flare was strong enough to trigger a radio blackout.
