Intense Solar Flare Captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory

Posted by in category: alien life

The Sun emitted a strong solar flare, peaking at 10:22 p.m. ET on May 2, 2024. NASA ’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the Sun constantly, captured an image of the event.

Solar flares are intense bursts of radiation emanating from the release of magnetic energy associated with sunspots. These flares are among the biggest explosive events in our solar system, visible primarily in the ultraviolet range.

Flares impact Earth in a variety of ways: they can disrupt the ionosphere and interfere with GPS navigation and radio communications. They are also responsible for auroras, the beautiful natural light displays often seen in high-latitude skies.
