Giant solar flare, UV telescope image
Giant solar flare. Ultraviolet (UV) image at 195nm wavelength, of a giant solar flare (bright, lower right) erupting from the surface of the Sun. Classified as an X-28, this is the largest solar flare ever recorded (as of 2012). It is so powerful that the X-ray intensity is beyond the capacity of the telescopes sensors. As a result the X-28 classification is only approximate and later analysis suggested increasing this estimate to X-45. Imaged by the Extreme-UV Imaging Telescope (EIT) on the SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) spacecraft, on 4th November 2003

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a momentous event in our solar system's history - a giant solar flare erupting from the surface of the Sun. Taken on November 4th, 2003, by the Extreme-UV Imaging Telescope (EIT) aboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft, this ultraviolet image at a wavelength of 195nm reveals an awe-inspiring sight. The colossal solar flare, classified as an X-28 but later estimated to be even more powerful at X-45 intensity, is depicted as a brilliant burst of light in the lower right corner against a deep black background. Its sheer magnitude is so immense that it surpasses the capacity of telescopes' sensors to measure its full extent. This remarkable image not only captures the largest solar flare ever recorded up until 2012 but also highlights its significance within astrophysics and astronomy. The intense flaring activity emanating from our star's surface provides invaluable insights into stellar physics and helps us better understand phenomena occurring within our own celestial neighborhood. As we gaze upon this extraordinary spectacle, we are reminded of both the power and beauty present in our universe. This photograph serves as a testament to humanity's continuous exploration and observation of space while igniting curiosity about what other astonishing cosmic events lie beyond our reach.
