Explosion for Two Days: Sun Erupts in Prolonged Flare

The phenomenon is explained by a large number of large spots on the surface of the star

The background X-ray radiation of the Sun has exceeded the flare level C for several days. One continuous flare continues on the Sun. This was reported by the Laboratory of Solar Astronomy of IKI and ISZF.

Scientists explained that the Sun retains an exceptionally large number of large spots, which indicate the presence of significant reserves of flare energy.

X-ray radiation from the Sun is formed only as a result of active processes. Accordingly, such a high level of radiation further confirms that something continues to "burn" on the star.

The accumulation of energy for flares of the highest X-level usually takes a day or two. If no major events occur today and tomorrow, then we are still talking about a systemic decline in activity, and the star returns to the mode of a "friendly source of heat and light".
