Record-breaking Solar Flare Observed by Scientists
Scientists have observed one of the most powerful solar flares ever observed in the Orion system, estimated to have been around ten times more powerful than anything ever seen from our Sun. The flare is so big it would have devastated anything in its path, like exoplanets. The astronomers focused their latest study on the stellar system known as V1355 Orionis, which is 400 light-years away from our planet and has two stars orbiting each other.
