The sun released a powerful solar flare, peaking at 7:57 p.m. EDT on Jan. 5, 2023. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which observes the Sun frequently, recorded a photo of the happening.
Solar flares are powerful explosions of energy. Flares and solar eruptions can affect radio communications, electrical power grids, navigation signs and cause dangers to spacecraft and astronauts.
This flare is categorized as an X1.2 flare. X-class represents the most intense flares, while the number presents more data regarding its potency.
