The Origin of the Sun's Magnetic Field Could Lie Close to Its Surface May 22, 2024 — Surprise findings suggest sunspots and solar flares could be generated by a magnetic field within the Sun's ...

NASA/SDO NASA had a busy start to October, as the agency announced that the sun emitted several major solar flares on Tuesday. On Tuesday, Oct. 1, NASA announced that its Solar Dynamics ...

The sun is in a spirited mood as it kicks out a glowing series of solar flares, including a fresh X9 that's the most intense we've seen in years. Amanda Kooser Freelance writer Amanda C.

Could this be the Perfect Geo-storm? October is off to a hot start: The sun unleashed a massive X-class solar flare — the “strongest of its kind,” according to Space.com — that has the ...

Apparently, it happened at just the right moment to transform the sun into one huge face, and it looks an awful lot like a jack-o’-lantern. Scientists at NASA were the first to notice, and they couldn ...

A sunspot on the surface of our volatile star exploded yesterday, sending an extremely powerful solar flare flashing through space towards the Earth. The flare, which hit an X7.1-class in strength ...

(SDO) These sunspots have complicated magnetic fields that, when entangled, can snap and produce a solar flare. And, very often, it is followed by a coronal mass ejection (CME), a fast-moving ...

A massive solar flare that was ejected from the sun on Tuesday could trigger auroras that are visible in parts of the United States. An X7.1 solar flare exploded from the sun at about 6 p.m. ET on ...

When that magnetic activity is released, it creates intense bursts of radiation resulting in solar flares – considered by NASA to be our solar system's largest explosive events. Solar flares ...
