k Solar flare, SDO ultraviolet image Solar flare, Solar Dynamics Observatory SDO ultraviolet image. The solar flare is the bright flash at upper right, with a burst of solar material erupting into space at lower right. The SDO is an Earthorbiting spacecraft launched in 2010 by NASA and used to observe the Sun. Here, the Sun and its atmosphere not seen in visible light is seen in a view that combines ultraviolet wavelengths of 131, 171 and 304 angstroms, obtained with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly AIA sensor. This flare occurred on 2 October 2014. It was classified as an M7.3 flare. Mclass flares are onetenth as powerful as the most powerful flares, which are designated Xclass flares.

Solar flare, SDO ultraviolet image

Solar flare, Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) ultraviolet image. The solar flare is the bright flash at upper right, with a burst of solar material erupting into space at lower right. The SDO is an Earth-orbiting spacecraft launched in 2010 by NASA and used to observe the Sun. Here, the Sun and its atmosphere (not seen in visible light) is seen in a view that combines ultraviolet wavelengths of 131, 171 and 304 angstroms, obtained with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) sensor. This flare occurred on 2 October 2014. It was classified as an M7.3 flare. M-class flares are one-tenth as powerful as the most powerful flares, which are designated X-class flares. For the full-disk view, see image C045/6033. Photo by NASA/SDO/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
