| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] On Tuesday night, the Sun ejected the largest plasma cloud this year. This was reported by specialists from the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IKI RAS) and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics. “In the images received from space coronagraphs, the expanding plasma cloud could be observed from about 1 a.m. Moscow time until 9–10 a.m., after which the ejection moved away from the Sun and was no longer visible in the instrument’s field of view,” the laboratory’s website says. It has been preliminarily established that the source of the emission is on the far side of the Sun, and this event does not pose a threat to the Earth. However, active areas directed towards our planet may remain potentially dangerous for about 1.5 days. As reported by Regnum News Agency, on February 23, scientists from the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ISTP SB RAS) recorded a high-magnitude solar flare. The flare, which lasted 12 minutes, was recorded in the X-ray range in the sunspot group 4001 (N25W86). This event was the result of a rapid increase in solar activity, which began less than a day ago and continues to develop. In the middle of the day, astronomers recorded three more flares of medium M level.
