In addition, on November 25 of this year, experts recorded two more flares — M1.8 and M1.1.

It is worth noting that solar flares are divided into five classes according to their power: A, B, C, M, and X. Each transition to the next letter increases the X-ray radiation index by 10 times. The most powerful X-class flares can cause radio interference and long magnetic storms across the Earth.

Earlier, www1.ru reported that a powerful flare of the highest class occurred on the Sun.
