A NASA telescope has captured the biggest solar flare in years, which temporarily knocked out radio communication on Earth
CAPE A NASA telescope has captured the biggest solar flare in years, which temporarily knocked out radio communication on Earth.
The sun spit out the huge flare on Thursday, resulting in two hours of radio interference in parts of the U.S. and other sunlit parts of the world. Scientists said it was the biggest flare since 2017.
Multiple pilots reported communication disruptions, with the impact felt across the country, said the government’s Space Weather Prediction Center.
