Who caught the Aurora Borealis last night?! πβ¨ I CANβT BELIEVE I MISSED IT!!! It was all thanks to a crazy solar flare that hit us last week! On October 3rd, 2024, the Sun blasted out an X9 solar flare (yeah, one of the most intense ones out there π₯), and the energy from that flare finally reached Earth, lighting up the sky in the most amazing way!!!! Hereβs some info to share over your next coffee date:π₯ X9 solar flare hit on Oct 3, 2024 β‘οΈ We got hit with a G4-level geomagnetic storm (pretty intense!) on Oct 9-10 π The aurora was *so* strong, it was visible all the way down to places like New York and Germany! π Solar particles were speeding toward us at over 3 million mph! π Peak aurora activity lasted about 6 hours with stunning colors lighting up the night sky across North America and Europe. π
