New Research Suggests the Sun May Be Overdue for a Massive Solar Flare
A recent study has warned that the sun may be overdue for a massive solar flare, potentially stronger than billions of atomic bombs. This event, known as a superflare, could have significant impacts on Earth’s magnetic field, potentially disrupting global communication and navigation systems.
NASA Discovers Surprising X-Class Solar Flare and Its Effects on Earth’s Southern Hemisphere
Scientists from NASA have recently revealed that an unexpected X-class solar flare, the most powerful type of solar flare, emitted from the sun, causing a nationwide radio blackout over southern African countries. Despite this event being surprising, researchers also discovered that southern African countries are at a higher risk of such solar flares.
