Bookmark or Share- NASA SVS | X-Class: A Guide to Solar FlaresA powerful X-class flare like that can create long lasting radiation storms, which can harm satellites and even give airline passengers, flying near the poles, small radiation doses. X flares also have the potential to create global transmission problems and world-wide blackouts.
- Solar flare - WikipediaA solar flare is a relatively intense, localized emission of electromagnetic radiation in the Sun's atmosphere. Flares occur in active regions and are often, but not always, accompanied by coronal mass ejections, solar particle events, and other eruptive solar phenomena. The occurrence of solar flares varies with the 11-year solar cycle.

- Sun Erupts With Massive X3.3 Flare, Captured ... - SciTechDailyClassified into categories such as C, M, and X, with X being the most intense, solar flares can produce energy levels equivalent to millions of hydrogen bombs exploding simultaneously. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this image of a solar flare — seen as the bright flash on the left — on Oct. 23, 2024.
- NASA SVS | Continuing Strong Solar Flares: May 15-16, 2024NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured nine X-class solar flares between May 10-16, 2024. This video shows the Sun in extreme ultraviolet wavelengths (171 Ångstroms) colorized in gold. This wavelength of light highlights the extremely hot material in flares.
