Restless sun, recorded the most powerful shine of 2025

After weeks of relative calm, the Sun it is again restless: at 10:25 Italian time has produced The strongest solar shine recorded in 2025a class x event (there more powerful of the five in which these phenomena are classified) which was generated by new stain Solar Ar4087 And who triggered Blackout Radio in the areas of the planet addressed to the sun, or in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. This was announced by the forecasting center of the space weather of the US agency for the atmosphere and the oceans (Noaa).

Solar brights have exploded on the basis of the intensity in five classes (A, B, C, M and X), each of which involves an increase in energy of ten times. The shine was classified as X2.7positioning itself at the lower limit of the most powerful solar brilliant class.

The event caused theemission of a wave of X -rays And ultraviolet radiation extreme who poured towards the earth at the speed of light, quickly ionizing the upper atmosphere. This sudden change interrupted high frequency radio signals, causing blackouts of communications for some radio operators in the affected regions.

There may also have been aExpulsion of Coronale Massa (CME) associated, but Confirmations are expected. The CME can trigger geomagnetic storms and intense aurore if they collide with the Earth’s magnetic field, but for the moment, considering that the AR4087 stain is still close to the edge of the sun, our planet still seems to be out of the fire line. However, the situation could change in the next few days, given that AR4087 is rotating towards the earth and has already proven particularly active. On the afternoon of May 13, for example, he produced an M5.3 class event.
