VIDEO: Solar flare destroys giant solar prominence

Один из фрагментов сегодняшней утренней X-вспышки, попавший в поле зрения непрерывно наблюдающих за Солнцем космических телескопов. Выброшенные из центра вспышки магнитные волокна обвивают и "пожирают" находящийся рядом солнечный протуберанец — огромное волокно тёмного холодного газа, протяжённостью около 300 тысяч километров, неосторожно оказавшееся рядом с местом взрыва.

The Sun experienced a high-magnitude flare on the Sun-Earth line

A solar flare of the highest magnitude has been recorded, occurring in the same "legendary" region 4274. The maximum emission was recorded at 10:35 Moscow time. The cataloged magnitude is X1.79. Images from space telescopes confirm that significant amounts of matter were ejected from the Sun into interplanetary space after the flare.

The main centers of solar activity have reached the Sun-Earth line

The main centers of solar activity, which have been moving with the Sun's rotation throughout the past week from the left eastern edge, where they appeared at the end of October, towards the central regions, have reached them and in the next 2-3 days will have the opportunity to exert maximum influence on the Earth.

A magnetic storm occurs depending on the average to independence

Around 3:00 a.m. Moscow time, a sudden magnetic storm of G2.3 intensity, ranging between moderate and strong, was registered. The event is associated with the solar flares of November 5-6, 2025. The planet was nevertheless grazed by the edge of one of the plasma clouds, the bulk of which, expected yesterday, clearly missed the planet.

Current geomagnetic conditions

As of 8:00 PM Moscow time, space tracking equipment has not registered the arrival of two clouds of plasma to Earth, the ejection of which from the Sun was observed after two strong flares that occurred in the second half of November 5 and on the night of November 6.

Magnetic storms predicted for Friday have begun

Today is expected to be one of the most challenging, and likely the most challenging, geomagnetic day of the year. The Earth is expected to simultaneously enter the zone of a large coronal hole and endure the arrival of two plasma clouds ejected by the large solar flares that occurred two days ago.

The strongest geomagnetic storm of the year is expected on Friday, November 7

The first model of the movement of solar-ejected plasma clouds on their way from the Sun to Earth has been developed, along with a preliminary forecast of geomagnetic activity. Tomorrow, Friday, November 7, Earth will experience the strongest geomagnetic storm of the year and one of the strongest in recent years.

Strong magnetic storms are occurring on Earth

Planetary-scale magnetic storms were registered on Earth around midnight Moscow time. Currently, the geomagnetic index Kp is in the G2 to G3 range, representing moderate to severe storms.
