Magnificent M-class Eruption on Aug. 24th

Space Weather News for August 24, 2014

MAGNIFICENT SOLAR FLARE: A visually beautiful solar flare erupted from
the east limb of the sun today. Extreme UV radiation briefly ionized
the upper layers of Earth's atmosphere; otherwise, our planet was not
in the line of fire. The responsible sunspot will turn toward Earth
in the days ahead, boosting chances for geoeffective solar activity as
the week unfolds. Visit http://spaceweather.com for photos and more
information.
