It’s #SunDay! Here’s your space weather report for the week of Jan. 30 – Feb 5:
- 72 M-class flares (!)
- 6 X-class flares
- 33 coronal mass ejections
- 0 geomagnetic storms
This video from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) shows the week’s activity.
SDO ended its Earth eclipse period this week just in time for an uninterrupted view of a barrage of solar flares! This week, one active region in particular — AR4366, which rotates onto the Earth-facing disk of the Sun at the beginning of this video — unleashed a whopping six X-class flares this week, and all but three of this week’s 72 M-class flares. This one is worth a watch!🤩
