Last week, NASA released a new batch of images from the probe as it traveled even closer to the sun. On December 24, 2024, ...

The M-class flare was accompanied by a coronal mass ejection currently forecast to land Earth with a glancing blow on June 18.

Solar flares measured around X1 — like the May 13 and 14 events — indicate strong flare intensity. An X10 flare is described as as a severe event, according to NOAA.

Solar flares are intense bursts of radiation coming from the sun. They are the most powerful explosions in our solar system, according to NASA. The biggest solar flares are labeled as X-class flares.

X2.7-class eruption from sunspot AR4087 disrupts radio signals as the active region rotates toward Earth, raising the risk of more flares ahead.

The sun released its strongest X-class solar flare of 2025, raising chances for northern lights and warnings of possible tech disruptions.

NOAA: A strong X1.2 solar flare erupted, raising the risk of geomagnetic storms, northern lights and possible technological disruptions. Here's what to know.

Flickering coronal loops in the Sun's outer atmosphere could act as an early warning system for solar flares, according to new research.

The sun released over 50 X-class solar flares in 2024! Here we take a look at some of the best.

Meta description: The sun released over 50 X-class solar flares in 2024, here we take a look at the 10 most explosive events.

An intense X2.3-class flare was released by the sun yesterday, followed by several M-class flares, which caused a series of radio blackouts around the world.
