The Fermi Paradox: Solar Flares
Our Sun constantly froths with sunspots and solar flares, many larger than our planet, and yet these are dwarfed by Coronal Mass Ejections, such as the Carrington Event of 1859, which would have wiped ...
Princeton physics experiment aims to shed light on disruptive solar flares The multimillion-dollar experiment that was years in the making comes as the federal government makes broad cuts to science ...
A strong solar flare from sunspot 4114 caused a shortwave radio blackout across the Pacific region.
Watch sunspot region 4114 erupt with its most powerful solar flare yet. The X1.9 class flare triggered radio blackouts across the Pacific Ocean.
Another X-class solar flare triggers US communication blackouts as the sun continues to emit intense solar flares during the solar maximum.
Large parts of the United States faced a radio blackout on Thursday following a strong solar flare from the sun. The "extreme ultraviolet flash" was captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory ...
