[Regnum] Solar flare activity will increase significantly on September 27, according to a forecast from the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS).
Scientists have warned of increased solar activity on Earth on September 27.
At the same time, scientists noted that the geomagnetic situation will remain calm and stable for now.
"The geomagnetic situation is calm. Flare activity is significantly elevated, with the potential for further growth," the Telegram channel reported.
According to the laboratory, solar flare activity was also significantly increased in the past 24 hours, but with uncertain risks for Earth.

Two strong solar flares were recorded on the Sun in five hours.
Two powerful solar flares have been recorded over the past five hours. This was reported on September 27 by the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS).
"The Sun has been experiencing a noticeable increase in activity since the end of yesterday. Over the past five hours, two strong M-class flares have been recorded, classified, however, at the lower limit, as well as several lower-level "C" events, " reads a message published on the IKI RAS Telegram channel.
Scientists currently view the solar activity surge as local, that is, a short-term response to one-time energy emissions. However, synchronization between active centers at the edge and center of the solar disk may indicate signs of global growth. The solar dynamics will be monitored in the future, noted the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
On September 27, the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences reported that solar flare activity would increase significantly, with the potential for further growth. However, scientists noted that the geomagnetic environment on Earth remains calm and stable. Flare activity was also high in the previous 24 hours, but without any specific risks to the planet.
