NASA Solar Observatory Captures Three X-class Solar Flares in February 2024 FriendsofNASA.org: NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), in orbit around the sun since 2010, spotted three X-class flares on the Sun between February 21 and 22, 2024. Watch this video to see what those events looked like in several wavelengths of extreme ultraviolet light that SDO captures. The video opens with quick shots of the three flares in different wavelength blends. The first is a blend of 131 and 171-angstrom

Real-time images from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory show an enormous sunspot group moving across the Sun right now! If you have eclipse glasses and good vision, you might be able to see it without magnification. (Never look directly at the Sun without proper eye protection!)

In early February 2026, the Sun unleashed a torrent of back-to-back solar flares. One specific active region on the Sun was responsible for over 50 of them! Here’s a close up look at this very busy active region through the eyes of NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the Sun 24/7 from Earth orbit.👇 🤩 | NASA Solar System Exploration

NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory released breathtaking close-up footage of solar flares, revealing the Sun as a complex network of blazing plasma loops and turbulent magnetic fields. The new video captures dark filaments cutting across bright, twisting arcs as massive bursts of energy erupt and constantly reshape in real time. To appreciate the scale: the Sun spans about 1.39 million kilometres in diameter, roughly 109 times the size of Earth. What may appear as tiny sparks in the footage are a

The winner of the solar Olympics 🏅 In this video, you're seeing sped-up footage of the most productive region on the Sun this year so far, active region AR4366. The loops of hot plasma shown here reach temperatures of around 600,000 Kelvin, or a scorching 1 million degrees Fahrenheit. This imagery was captured by our Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) between Feb. 1 and Feb. 9 in 2026. During this window, AR4366 produced 75 M-class and six X-class flares, the two largest classes of solar flares.

The Sun emitted two strong solar flares, peaking at 9:41 p.m. ET on May 7, 2024, and 1:09 a.m. ET on May 8, 2024. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured images of the events, which were both classified as X1.0. https://go.nasa.gov/3UTOd9m Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground. However — when intense enough — they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS & communic
