Radio Blackout

A powerful X-class solar flare erupted, causing shortwave radio blackouts over the Atlantic, South America, and Africa.

On November 6, 2024, sunspot AR 3883 unleashed a powerful X2.3 solar flare, causing radio blackouts in parts of South America and Africa. The flare, classified as a strong solar event, disrupted high-frequency radio signals. Scientists are awaiting data from NASA’s SOHO spacecraft to assess the potential impact of a coronal mass ejection (CME) on...

On October 7, 2024, sunspot AR 3842 released another powerful X2.1 solar flare, causing significant radio blackouts across North and South America, as well as over the Pacific Ocean. This is the second major flare from AR 3842 after it previously unleashed the most intense solar flare in seven years. Scientists from NOAA are currently analysing dat...

On October 3, the sun emitted its most powerful solar flare of the current cycle, an X9.05 eruption. This flare, originating from the sunspot group AR3842, caused shortwave radio blackouts over Europe and Africa. Additionally, a coronal mass ejection (CME) is expected to arrive on Earth between October 3 and October 5, potentially enhancing auroras...

The flare, originating from sunspot AR3738, occurred late Saturday night (July 13) at 10:34 p.m. EDT (0234 UT on July 14), and was captured in stunning detail by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory.

Earth has already experienced interruption in shortwave radio due to the solar storm, but thankfully coronal mass ejection (CME) from the latest eruption will not impact our planet.

NASA said solar cycle 25 began is now approaching solar maximum - a period when eruptions like this one become more common.

NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Centre has indicated a 60 per cent chance that the ongoing solar storm could disrupt the power grid.

A strong solar flare struck the Earth on Thursday and caused a shortwave radio blackout over a large area of the South Pacific, including Australia and New Zealand.

A radio blackout was caused over the areas of Asia and Australia by a solar flare on Sunday, according to Spacewather.com. Solar activities are ramping up day by day after a geomagnetic storm hit Earth on Thursday (April 14), the Spaceweather.com fur
