On Monday, a flare of the second-to-last strongest M-class was recorded on the Sun. This was reported to TASS by the Institute of Applied Geophysics (FSBI "IAG").
According to the institute's data, on October 13 at 09:26 Baku time, an M1.9 flare occurred in the X-ray range in sunspot group 4246 (coordinates N24W16), lasting 45 minutes.
Scientists explained that solar flares are classified by the power of X-ray radiation from A to X, with each subsequent class being 10 times stronger than the previous one. Such flares can be accompanied by ejections of solar plasma, which, upon reaching Earth, can cause magnetic storms.
