The sun roared to life early Tuesday (May 14), unleashing a powerful X-class solar flare from a newly emerging sunspot region AR4087. The eruption peaked at 4:25 a.m. EDT (0825 GMT), triggering ...

On May 13 and 14, NASA reported two separate solar flares that were ranked in the X-class, which marks the most intense flares, according to the agency. The flare on May 13 was classified as an X1 ...

A high-magnitude solar flare erupted from a new sunspot on the sun’s surface, which caused a disruption of radio signals across Earth’s Eastern Hemisphere on Tuesday. Classified as an X2.7 ...

The culprit? A fiery X2.7-class solar flare that erupted from sunspot AR4087 early Tuesday morning (May 14), sending charged particles and plasma hurtling toward Earth. And experts warn ...

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 ...

More eruptions are anticipated as AR4087 moves toward Earths alignment. The sun erupted with the year's most powerful solar flare on Wednesday, triggering widespread radio blackouts. The massive ...

The sun has unleashed the strongest solar flare of the year, triggering strong radio blackouts across the globe. Just after 11:30 a.m. ET, a massive X2.7-class solar flare erupted from a newly ...

The sudden burst of magnetic energy can interrupt radio signals on the side of the planet facing the flare. They can also interfere with navigation signals — even potentially disrupting spacecraft.

The sun unleashed a strong X1.2 solar flare on Tuesday, May 13, within the region on the sun's western limb, as scientists continue to monitor the possibilities of coronal mass ejections ...
