Sun Slings Largest Solar Flare Yet Coronal Mass Ejection Hurtles to Earth (the mega gods angry you better save trees in tremontSubmitted by Quest-News-Serv... on Fri, 04/12/2013 - 15:35.
The sun has let loose its strongest flare yet today. Classified as a M6.5 flare, it was associated with an Earth-direction coronal mass ejection (CME), a solar phenomenon that can send billions of tons of solar particles into space and can reach our planet days later.
