M-FLARE: Today at 1318 UT, Earth-orbiting satellites detected an M1-class solar flare. The source is a new sunspot emerging over the sun's northeastern limb. These sunspots have the potential for strong eruptions. Sunspot 1401 produced an M1-flare on Jan. 14th. Two days earlier, while it was still on the farside of the sun, sunspot 1402 produced a partially-eclipsed flare of uncertain magnitude that created waves of ionization in the atmosphere over Europe.

Stay tuned for more updates...

  • Thank you. I always enjoy your videos. To quantumtheo and sedjetra, I will watch for these trends of aggression. Very interesting. And to the trolls who dislike these videos, you perplex me. Why bother to subscribe? Wouldn't you be more satisfied watching Jersey Shore or Dancing with the Stars? (pun intended) ;)

  • @Skyywatcher88 yes, let it be PEACE in our poor WORLD!:)

  • thx for sharing those beautiful pictures

  • @MegaEvilCrow Maybe its the son of man thats going to save us...?

  • @MegaEvilCrow How is that?

  • Yay! 

  • @sedjetra Hummm..I wonder how NASA would know that?...Their still trying to figure out the basics...but, yes, I would be more alarmed about what is going on in the east for the moment. If the sun on the other hand took out the power grids around the world, maybe there would be no war...come on sun...lol..well maybe not, more would die than in any war! PEACE.

  • @sedjetra Finally...Yes it really going to heat up...reports popping up all over the place...I'm not liking what I'm hearing, but here we go...Peace!
