| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] A very large X-magnitude solar flare was recorded on the sun on the morning of November 14. This was reported by the press service of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences. According to scientists, the X4.05 flare occurred at 11:30 AM Moscow time, with its epicenter in region 427 in the Sun's northern hemisphere, where an X5.15 flare was recorded two days earlier. It was one of the strongest of 2025 and triggered a powerful magnetic storm that struck Earth on November 11–13. The Laboratory clarified that powerful flares in the center of this region began two to three weeks ago, when it was on the far side of the Sun. Scientists believe these could have contributed to the change in the motion of the 3I/ATLAS spacecraft, which was directly struck by ejected plasma clouds. On the night of November 12, a powerful magnetic storm began on Earth, reaching a G4.7 level around 3:00 AM Moscow time. Prior to this, a solar flare of the highest magnitude, X5.1, was recorded. Later, on November 13, one of the most powerful magnetic storms on Earth in the last decade generated intense auroras visible even in mid-latitudes. On the afternoon of November 14, the powerful magnetic storm, which lasted for 42 hours, ended. |
