Sun produced four solar flares this week, two X-class flares, the strongest kind

I didn't think Sun would ever do anything anymore since they got acquired by Oracle. Glad to be proven wrong.

I find this and near-future solar flares and coronal mass injections to be interesting experimentally. I'm waiting to see if any of them will have an effect on our tech. and the power grid. That and I'm waiting for the day I can see an aurora borealis in Chicago with my naked eye.
