Solar flares: NASA pics of stunning storm
NASA reports that a huge X1.4 class flare erupted from the center of the sun on July 12, 2012, at 10 a.m. PDT, which erupted from a part of the sun known as Active Region 1520.
NASA Goddard Space Flight Center has released this incredible image of the enormous flare, which could well interfere with radio and navigation systems on Earth.
Making the situation even more volatile, the flight center reports there was a coronal mass ejection, which occurred simultaneously.
