EARTH 2023 — The NOAA Space Weather released information about an X5.0 flare (R3 strong radio blackout) had peaked this afternoon at 1655 hours EST today and was observed as the strongest flare since December 14, 2023.

We don’t really know much about solar flares, so we researched this article as it seemed interesting due to the impact of HF radio signals.

The interruption of radio signals is not a danger to the general public.
