BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Sun produces monster solar flare

BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Sun produces monster solar flare: "The Sun has unleashed its largest recorded solar flare, capping 10 days of unprecedented activity for the star.

The blast sent billions of tonnes of superhot gas into space - some of it directed towards our planet.
Scientists say the Sun's current spate of activity has produced the most dramatic events seen on the solar surface since regular monitoring began."

Heck of a week to get a tan.
