In May 2024, the largest solar flare since 2017 was detected, ranking at an X-8.7 magnitude. Then in 2025, a flare May 13 was classified as an X-1.2 , and another the next day was listed as an X-2.7.

NASA reported sunspot region 4114 unleashed a powerful X1.2-class solar flare on June 17, disrupting shortwave radio communication, especially over the Pacific, including Hawaii. Frequencies below ...

X-class flares are the most powerful type of solar flare. Tuesday's event ranked as an X1.2, placing it at the lower end of the X-scale, but still strong enough to cause disruptions.

Just a few days ago, the same sunspot region erupted with another X-class solar flare, measuring X1.2. The prolific flare factory doesn't look like stopping anytime soon.

When sunspots erupt at nearly the same time, it could be something known as "sympathetic solar flares." A double eruption ...

On June 15th, a significant M8.46 solar flare from sunspot region AR 4114 caused shortwave radio blackouts, particularly affecting the Americas. NOAA classified it as an R2 event, impacting ...
