On Wednesday, the sun released two strong solar flares—an X2.7-class and an M5.3-class—that caused shortwave radio blackouts across five continents. The affected regions included parts of North America, South America, Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded clear images of the eruptions. The most powerful flare hit at 4:25 a.m. ET, when the sun was above the Middle East, briefly interrupting high-frequency radio signals there.
Experts say this increase in solar activity is part of the sun's 11-year cycle, known as the solar maximum. More intense flares are expected soon, which could impact satellites, GPS systems, and even astronauts. However, these solar events might also bring more visible auroras around the world.
