After a calm week, the sun erupted again. A powerful M5.1 solar flare burst from an emerging sunspot region, shaking the ...

The Sun has just unleashed an M5-class solar flare, a powerful burst of radiation that signals a clear uptick in solar activity as the current cycle heads toward its peak. While this event is not the ...

The sun erupted with an X1.9-class solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured the blast in multiple wavelengths.

Three strong Class M flares were recorded on the Sun. This was reported on December 29 on the website of the Laboratory of ...

Space weather observers warn that the Van Allen radiation belts are now fully charged after repeated solar storms, raising ...

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 Earth, ...

What processes are responsible for heating solar flares and what dangers do they pose to Earth? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters hopes to address as an ...

NASA captured an image of an intense solar flare released by the sun on Tuesday evening. The solar flare peaked at 5:49 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory said. It was an X-class ...

Solar flares can be many times the size of Earth and can damage things like satellites. A new study suggests that eruptions from the sun can be even hotter than researchers thought. Solar flares are ...

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 ...

Beautiful yet dangerous solar flares that erupt from the sun could be as hot as 180 million degrees Fahrenheit, researchers say. That's more than six times hotter than solar physicists previously ...
