A strong solar flare affects radio communications
A massive solar flare erupted on Friday, causing a temporary outage of radio communications on the Earth's opposite side of the sun. The NASA website said that the sun emitted a strong solar flare, which lasted an hour and 12 minutes, and reached its climax at around 3:16 pm.
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which constantly monitors the sun, recorded a video of the solar flare. This glow is classified as an "X2.2" glow. The "X" category indicates the most intense flares, while the number provides more information about their strength.
NASA said the flares could affect radio communications, electrical power grids and navigation signals, and pose risks to spacecraft and astronauts. For its part, the "Space" website revealed that the huge glow behind a "temporary blackout" for wireless communications on the Earth's opposite side of the sun.
He added, "The flare also led to the emission of a coronal mass emission, which is obtained by releasing huge amounts of matter, magnetic fields, and electromagnetic radiation into space above the surface of the sun."
