As the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Institute for Space Research reported, today's Sun emitted the most enormous plasma cloud this year.
The emission was recorded last night. Experts first noticed the expanding cloud, which then "moved away" from the Sun and ceased to be visible to equipment.
According to scientists, the emission source is the same active region that caused the X2.0-magnitude flare in late February. The source of the explosion is assumed to be located on the opposite side of the Sun and, therefore, cannot affect the Earth. It is noted that as a result of the blast, the plasma began to leave the planet.
"The active regions on the side of the Sun facing the Earth will be in the danger zone for the Earth for about 1.5 more days," the experts concluded.
