Title

Video tracking a giant sunspot from Oct. 19 - Oct. 27, 2014. The active region released many significant flares. This video highlights 5 X-class flares.   NASAexplorer YouTube channel . Giant Sunspot Continues to Erupt with Substantial Flares
An active region on the sun erupted with a mid-level flare on Oct. 21, 2014, as seen in the bright light of this image captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. This image shows extreme ultraviolet light that highlights the hot solar material in the sun's atmosphere.   Credit: NASA/GSFC/SDO Second Substantial Flare in Two Days
Video of flare and eruption in several wavelengths.  It begins with 304 angstrom, then 171, and finally a blend of 304, 171 and 131, which shows the hottest flaring regions.  Music: Sun Emits Mid-Level Flare on October 2, 2014
An X1.6 class solar flare flashes in the middle of the sun on Sept. 10, 2014. This image was captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory and shows light in the 131 angstrom wavelength, which is typically colorized in teal.  Credit: NASA/SDO September 10, 2014 X1.6 flare
A solar flare bursts off the left limb of the sun in this image captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory on June 10, 2014, at 7:41 a.m. EDT. This is classified as an X2.2 flare, shown in a blend of two wavelengths of light: 171 and 131 angstroms, colorized in gold and red, respectively. Cropped.

An X 1.4 solar flare erupted on the right side of the sun on the evening of April. 24, 2014. This composite image, captured at 8:42 p.m. EST, shows the sun in ultraviolet light with wavelength of both 131 and 304 angstroms.  Cropped. X-class Flare Erupts from Sun on April 24
A giant sunspot appeared on Feb. 25, 2014, for its third trip across the face of the sun. This blend of two images from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory shows the sunspot in visible light and an X-class flare observable in ultraviolet light.

An X-class solar flare erupted on the left side of the sun on the evening of Feb. 24, 2014.  This composite image, captured at 7:59 p.m. EST, shows the sun in ultraviolet light with wavelength of both 131 and 171 angstroms. Credit: NASA/SDO NASA's SDO Provides Images of Significant Solar Flare
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this image of the moon crossing in front of its view of the sun on Jan. 30, 2014, at 10:30 a.m. EST in 171 and 304 angstrom light. The two wavelengths are blended together.   Credit: NASA/SDO SDO Lunar Transit, Prominence Eruption, and M-Class Flare
This closeup of the Sun taken by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, shows large sunspot AR1944 and the source area of the X1.2 class solar flare, which appears to be from adjacent, smaller sunspot AR1943. Image Credit:NASA/SDO/Goddard Space Flight Center Sun unleashes first X-class flare of 2014
