Solar Flare

Has there been a lot of solar activity this year or are they just reporting it more? This is the third major solar event in the last 2 months.

It’s because the Sun is entering another Solar maximum period. It is meant to peak in 2013.

I think it makes such “interesting” news since it something that could have devastating consequence’s and we can’t really predict it at all. I think at most they have around 2 days notice of the suns activity.
