Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Scientists classify solar flares according to their x-ray brightness in the wavelength range 1 to 8 Angstroms. There are 3 categories: X-class flares are big; they are major events that can trigger planet-wide radio blackouts and long-lasting radiation storms. M-class flares are medium-sized; they can cause brief radio blackouts that affect Earth’s polar regions. Minor radiation storms sometimes follow an M-class flare. Compared to X- and M-class events, C-class flares are small with few noticeable consequences here on Earth.

AUSTRALIAN FIREBALL ALERT: Japan’s Hayabusa spacecraft is approaching Earth and preparing to deliver a piece of asteroid Itokawa to waiting scientists. A sample return capsule will blaze through the atmosphere over Australia and land via parachute in the remote Woomera Test Range on Sunday, June 13th at 7 a.m. PDT. The Hayabasa mothership will follow the capsule into Earth’s atmosphere, but never make it to the ground, instead disintegrating in a spectacular fireball.
