The Sun regularly produces solar flares, which are energetic outbursts of electromagnetic radiation. Sometimes, these flares are accompanied by plasma in events known as coronal mass ejections. Both ...
Topping the range for the time being is the AMG E53, a six-cylinder PHEV. In other regions, there's an E450 petrol as well, but that isn't offered in the UK for the time being - and is unlikely to ...
All of the activity sparks solar storms, specifically solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which hurl plasma and magnetic material into space. When that material collides with Earth’s ...
Solar activity is reckoned to be at a 23-year high. As if on cue, X-class solar flares on the sun — which are often followed by CMEs — occurred again on Friday, Jan. 3 and Saturday ...
"At 2:39 p.m. Moscow time (11:39 a.m. GMT) on January 3, an X 1.2 class solar flare that lasted 20 minutes was registered," the research institute said in a statement, TASS reported. Two flares of ...
