Aurora borealis was seen around the world last night — all because of an extremely powerful solar flare
On Sunday, the first major solar flare of the year occurred — an X1.95-class event.
A cloud of charged particles reached Earth in less than 24 hours.
On the night of January 19–20, the aurora was observed in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Western Europe, and North America.
An extremely strong geomagnetic storm hit the planet. Geomagnetic activity nearly reached the maximum G5 level.
Disruptions have been reported worldwide. Radio signals, satellite navigation, and other systems dependent on a stable magnetic field have been affected.
