NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory has recorded a period of unusual and powerful activity from the sun since the start of September with one solar flare being the strongest on record in a decade. More solar flare: http://globalnews.ca/tag/solar-flare/ | Global News

The Sun emitted a strong solar flare on Nov. 30, 2025, peaking at 9:49 p.m. ET. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured an image of the event, which was classified as X1.9 class: go.nasa.gov/4alXf6P Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground. However — when intense enough — they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS & communications signals travel. To see how such sp

😯👉On February 4, the Sun unleashed an intense X4.2 solar flare, captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. Solar flares in the X-class category are the most powerful type, releasing enormous bursts of energy and radiation into space. This flare reached its peak at 7:13 a.m. Eastern Time and was carefully observed by researchers who track solar activity. Even though the radiation from flares like this cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to harm people on the ground, these eruptions can s
