9 Ocak 2023’te Güneş’in sol kenarında X1.9 sınıfı bir güneş patlaması parlıyor. Bu görüntü NASA’nın Solar Dynamics Observatory tarafından çekilmiştir ve 171, 131 ve 304 angstrom dalga boylarından gelen bir ışık karışımını göstermektedir. Kredi bilgileri: NASA/GSFC/SDO
Güneş, öğleden sonra 1:50’de zirveye ulaşan güçlü bir güneş patlaması yaydı.[{” attribute=””>EST on January 9, 2023. Imagery of the event was captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which constantly watches the Sun.
Solar flares are intense explosions of energy that can disrupt radio communications, damage power grids, and affect navigation signals. They also pose a threat to spacecraft and astronauts.

This flare is classified as an X1.9 flare. It is categorized as an X-class flare, which is the most powerful class of solar flares. The number following the “X” indicates the relative strength of the flare, with larger numbers indicating stronger flares. An X1.9 flare is therefore a relatively strong flare, but less intense than an X2.0 or higher. These flares can cause disruptions to radio communications and power grids on Earth, and can also be potentially dangerous for spacecraft and astronauts.

For more details on how such space weather may affect Earth, please visit NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center, the U.S. government’s official source for space weather forecasts, watches, warnings, and alerts. NASA works as a research arm of the nation’s space weather effort. NASA observes the Sun and our space environment constantly with a fleet of spacecraft that study everything from the Sun’s activity to the solar atmosphere, and to the particles and magnetic fields in the space surrounding Earth.

Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), güneşi ve Dünya üzerindeki etkilerini incelemek için 2010 yılında başlatılan bir NASA misyonudur. Uzay aracı, güneşin manyetik alanını gözlemlemesine, güneşin yüzeyindeki malzemenin hareketini izlemesine ve güneşin çeşitli radyasyon formlarını ölçmesine izin veren bir dizi aletle donatılmıştır. SDO tarafından toplanan veriler, güneşin iç işleyişinin yanı sıra Dünya’nın iklimi ve çevresi üzerindeki etkisini anlamamızı geliştirmek için kullanılır. SDO, uydu ve yer tabanlı teknoloji üzerinde önemli etkileri olabilecek güneş patlamalarını ve diğer uzay hava olaylarını tahmin etme yeteneğimizi geliştirmemize yardımcı oldu.
