TL;DR Summary

An Earth-facing sunspot named AR3395 has an unstable 'beta-delta' magnetic field, which could result in strong M-class solar flares that have the potential to cause havoc. While the chances of an X-class flare are low, the impact of solar phenomena on Earth can disrupt global communications, harm satellites, and create blackouts, as well as pose radiation risks to people in airplanes and astronauts.
