Sun Blasts Strong M9.8-Class Flare CME Earth-Directed
Sunspot AR3500 blasted a M9.8-class solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured footage of the flare in multiple wavelengths. Views from the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory show an Earth-directed coronal mass ejection (CME) generated by the blast.

Sun Ignites: Unleashing a Powerful X4.5 Solar Flare
On September 14, 2024, the Sun released a powerful X4.5 solar flare, observed by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. This flare is classified as an X4.5 flare and peaked at 11:29 a.m. ET. X-class denotes the most intense flares,
7 years ago today, the sun unleashed a record-breaking solar flare
As August 2024 set another 20-year high for sunspot numbers on the sun, recent solar flares have yet to top two solar flares from September 2017. One of these flares, which took place seven years ago on Sept. 10 2017, still holds further unbroken records.
