How NASA Tracked the Most Intense Solar Storm in Decades
WEBMay 16, 2024 · During the first full week of May, a barrage of large solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) launched clouds of charged particles and magnetic fields toward Earth, creating the strongest solar storm to reach Earth in two decades — and possibly one of the strongest displays of auroras on record in the past 500 years.
Strongest geomagnetic storm since 2003, X5.8 solar flare
WEBMay 11, 2024 · X5.8 solar flare. Midst among the excitement of the very first extreme G5 geomagnetic storm since 2003, sunspot region 3664 continued doing what it is best at: producing major solar flares. It produced it's strongest solar flare thus far and the second strong solar flare of the current Solar Cycle. An X5.8 solar flare that peaked at 01:23 UTC.
