Massive Sun Blast Alert! Far-Side Eruption Could Impact Earth | Solar Flare & Space Weather 2026” A massive solar eruption erupted from the Sun’s far-side north pole on January 13, 2026, sending streams of plasma into space. This highly active region is rotating toward Earth, raising the potential for strong solar flares, increased solar wind, and auroras at high latitudes in the coming days. While no Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (CMEs) were detected yet, scientists continue to closely

The Sun emitted a significant solar flare on March 30, 2022 peaking at 1:35 p.m. ET. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured an image of the event, which was classified as an X-Class flare. https://go.nasa.gov/3uJMtAS 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 & communications signals travel.
