Sun Unleashes Intense X-Class Solar Flare, With More Blasts Expected
A powerful solar flare exploded on the surface of the sun late Thursday from a complex sunspot that could flare up again very soon, quite literally.
The blast of charged particles was recorded as an X1.2-class flare. X flares are the most powerful category of flares, and can cause geomagnetic storms to affect Earth’s magnetic field with the potential to damage satellites, communications equipment and even the power grid.
The flare was the most powerful seen since at least October.
NASA/SDO
An X1 flare like this one, though, is at the low end of the X-scale. Thus, no immediate damage from the blast itself has been reported just yet, with the exception of a short-wave radio blackout over parts of Australia and the South Pacific. This blackout was the result of the solar flare’s energized blast traveling at the speed of light toward our planet, reaching Earth in a mere eight minutes. Still, it was brief.
However, scientists believe there is surely more in this sunspot’s arsenal.
“Given the size and apparent complexity of this large active region, there’s a good chance the explosions will continue in the days ahead,” writes former NASA astronomer Tony Phillips at Spaceweather.com.
Powerful flares are often accompanied by coronal mass ejections (CMEs) of hot plasma that can be hurled in the direction of Earth but at much slower speeds, taking a day or more to make the journey.
When strong CMEs make a direct impact on Earth, the result can be bright auroral displays at higher latitudes, but also the aforementioned infrastructure damage. So far there’s no report of a CME accompanying Thursday’s flare.
This is a welcome surprise, as the massive and energetically complex sunspot that produced it spent the earlier part of this week blasting powerful flares and CMEs off the far side of the sun. Now that sunspot, which is cataloged as AR3182, is rotating into our direct line of sight from Earth, meaning future CMEs over the next few days may be aimed right at us.
NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center forecasts a 10 percent chance of more X flares over the weekend.

Previously hidden sunspot unleashes colossal X-class solar flare
A newly emerged sunspot is making its presence known, unleashing a powerful X-class solar flare that triggered shortwave radio blackouts across the South Pacific.
NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded a massive solar flare on Thursday (Jan 5) at 7:45 p.m. EST (0045 GMT on Jan. 6). The outburst blasted out a glowing-hot plasma dome that lingered above the sunspot AR3182 for over an hour, according to Spaceweather.com (opens in new tab). Because of the sun‘s rotation, the lively sunspot will soon face Earth and could continue its explosive activity in the days ahead.
Solar flares are categorized by size into lettered groups, with X-class being the most powerful. Within each class, numbers from 1 to 10 (and beyond, for X-class flares) denote a flare’s relative strength. The recent flare clocked in at X1.2, a relatively weak example of the most powerful class.
AR3182 has also been linked to the violent eruption on Tuesday (Jan. 3) that sent a coronal mass ejection (CME), a giant cloud of magnetized plasma, barrelling off into space. At the time, the sunspot was hidden on the far side of the sun and so the eruption posed no danger to Earth.

Solar flares are caused when magnetic energy builds up in the solar atmosphere and is released in an intense burst of electromagnetic radiation. More powerful, M-class and X-class flares can cause minor to extensive radio blackouts on the side of Earth facing the sun at the time of the eruption.
This is exactly what happened when the recent X1.2 class solar flare sent a strong pulse of X-rays and extreme ultraviolet radiation toward Earth. Traveling at the speed of light, the radiation reached Earth in just over eight minutes and ionized the upper layer of Earth’s atmosphere — the thermosphere — triggering a shortwave radio blackout across the South Pacific.

According to Spaceweather.com, so far, no CME has been observed emerging from the area after the massive flare.
Solar activity is on the rise as part of solar cycle 25, which scientists predict will peak in 2025.

Russia unleashes fatal missile barrage – DW – 12/05/2022
Ukrainian officials have reported a new wave of Russian missile strikes across the country as Moscow seeks to cripple Ukraine’s energy supplies and infrastructure. Explosions were reported in several parts of the country, including the cities of Odesa, Cherkasy and Kryvyi Rih.
Russia’s latest wave of airstrikes has destroyed homes in the south and knocked out power in the north. Two people were reportedly killed by gunfire in Zaporizhzhia.
A missile strike in Odesa cut power to pumping stations, leaving the entire city without water, according to the local water company. Officials in Kryvyi Rih said, “parts of the city are cut off from electricity, several boiler and pumping stations are disconnected.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said air defense forces shot down most of the Russian missiles fired at his country Monday, and that energy workers were already restoring power supplies.
Later, authorities said that 60 of 70 rockets fired on Ukraine had been intercepted.
“The enemy is again attacking the territory of Ukraine with missiles!” Kyrylo Tymoshenko, deputy head of the Ukrainian president’s office, wrote on Telegram as officials urged people to take shelter, and air raid sirens sounded across the country.
White House National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby called the latest strikes, “a reminder of Putin’s brutality.”
Here are the other top headlines related to the war in Ukraine on Monday, December 5:
Blasts reported at two Russian air bases
Explosions at two military airfields in western Russia on Monday left three people dead and several injured.
There were reports of two planes being damaged in the blast at the Engels air base near Saratov, some 860 kilometers (534 miles) southeast of the Russian capital, Moscow. The base reportedly houses T-95 strategic bombers, according to Russian news agencies. The plane is the type that Russia has used for rocket attacks on Ukraine, targeting energy infrastructure.
The Saratov facility is deep into Russia, being some 1,000 kilometers east of Ukraine’s capital Kyiv. According to images and reports on social media, the blast was considerable.
At roughly the same time, a gasoline truck blew up on a runway in the region of Ryazan, south of Moscow. No information was available about what caused the blast in Ryazan, where the three fatalities were recorded.
The Ryazan base houses long-range flight tankers that serve to refuel bombers in the air.
Putin drives across Kerch bridge for 1st time after explosion
Russian leader Vladimir Putin drove across the Kerch bridge after an explosion destroyed the key bridge linking Russia to annexed Crimeain October.
Putin drove his Mercedes across the bridge and talked about repair work with Marat Khusnulin, a deputy prime minister in charge of the project, an exchange that was broadcast by Russian television.
The president also spoke to workers involved in restoring the 12-mile (19 kilometer) bridge that Russia has used to move military equipment into Ukriane.
Putin also emphasized the need to build a highway along the Sea of Azov coast to link Crimea with regions in southern Russia, the Kremlin said.
Russia blamed the bomb attack on the bridge last month on Ukrainian military intelligence and struck several Ukrainian energy facilities and other key infrastructures following it.
Ukrainian air defense forces shot down most Russian missiles, says Zelenskyy
Ukrainian air defense forces shot down most Russian missiles fired at Ukraine on Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said. Energy workers had already begun working on restoring power supplies, he added.
Russia carried out the latest in wave of airstrikes on Ukraine, destroying homes in the south and knocking out power in the north and killing at least two people, Ukrainian officials said.
New barrage of Russian missiles targets utilities
Ukrainian officials have reported a new wave of Russian missile strikes across the country as Moscow seeks to cripple Ukraine’s energy supplies and infrastructure.
Explosions were reported in several parts of the country, including the cities of Odesa, Cherkasy and Kryvyi Rih.
A missile strike in Odesa cut power to pumping stations, leaving the entire city without water, according to the local water company.
Officials in Kryvyi Rih said “parts of the city are cut off from electricity, several boiler and pumping stations are disconnected.”
Authorities urged people to take shelter, with air raid sirens sounded across the country.
“The enemy is again attacking the territory of Ukraine with missiles!” Kyrylo Tymoshenko, the deputy head of the Ukrainian president’s office, wrote on Telegram.
Western price cap on Russian oil takes effect
A price cap on Russian oil agreed by the EU, G7 and Australia has come into force. The measure has the aim of restricting Russia’s revenue as punishment for its invasion of Ukraine, while making sure that Moscow keeps supplying the global market.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov responded by saying that the measure would contribute to a destabilization of world energy markets. He said it would not affect Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine.
The cap took effect alongside an EU embargo on deliveries of Russian crude oil by ship. It comes several months after an embargo was imposed by the United States and Canada.
Russia is the second-largest crude exporter in the world and likely could find new buyers at market prices without the cap.
UK says Russia flying far fewer sorties
The UK Ministry of Defence says the number of combat aircraft sorties carried out by Russia over Ukraine has significantly decreased in recent months.
The ministry says Russian aircraft now probably conduct tens of missions per day, compared to a high of up to 300 per day in March 2022.
UK experts say the decrease in sorties is likely a result of at least three factors – a continued high threat from Ukrainian air defenses, limitations on the flying hours available to Russian aircraft, and worsening weather.
Russia has now lost more than 60 fixed-wing aircraft in the conflict.
The ministry said that, because Russia’s ground attack tactics are largely reliant on visual identification and unguided munitions, the Russian air force will likely continue some ground attack operations through the poor winter weather.
Ukraine talks trade with neutral UAE
The United Arab Emirates and Ukraine have announced talks on a bilateral trade deal that is expected to conclude by the middle of next year
The Gulf Arab state has tried to remain neutral in the Russia-Ukraine war despite pressure from the West on Gulf oil producers to do more to help isolate Moscow. The UAE has called for diplomacy to resolve the conflict.
More DW coverage on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
The war in Ukraine has increased demand for weapons as Russia ups production and Western nations seek to replace stock donated to Kyiv. However, a report says the conflict may also hamper production.
The EU has stopped buying Russian seaborne crude oil as it seeks to deprive Moscow of a key revenue source fueling its war in Ukraine. The move will hurt Russia but not as much as the bloc would have liked.
As winter draws in at the front in Ukraine, what Russia’s army really needs is a rest. This could prove to be an opportunity for Kyiv — but, to take advantage of it, Ukraine needs more ammunition.
Russia continues to attack energy infrastructure in Ukraine, causing homes to lose power, heat and water. Experts say it’s a cynical tactic with a long history.
Russian propagandists are constantly saying Ukraine is full of Nazis, and posting alleged evidence online. DW’s fact-checking team has investigated some of this supposed evidence and found it to be baseless.

Parton unleashes her inner rock star, Mellencamp declares ‘f*** antisemitism,’ Eminem gives hip-hop history lesson at diverse Rock Hall ceremony
Back in March of this year, just a little over a month after it was announced that Dolly Parton was among the 17 nominees on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2022 ballot, the 76-year-old country legend made the shocking and unprecedented announcement that she was “respectfully” withdrawing from nominations — because she didn’t feel “worthy” of the honor. However, two-thirds of the ballots had already been mailed out to Hall voters, so she remained in the running — and while Parton’s issue with her eligibility seemed to stem from her concern that she wasn’t “rock ‘n’ roll” enough, many of those voters thought otherwise. Parton was voted into the Hall anyway, and so, when she appeared at Saturday’s induction ceremony, she wanted to make sure she truly qualified — announcing plans for a rock album and even debuting a new rock song.
“I’m sure a lot of you know that back when they said they were going to put me in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I didn’t really feel like I had done enough to deserve that and I didn’t understand it at the time,” Parton told the audience (shortly after being inducted by Pink, who praised Parton’s “sheer genius”). “When I always thought about the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I thought that was just for people in rock ‘n’ roll. And I thought, ‘Well, if I’m going to be in the Rock & Roll Hall Fame, I’m gonna have to do a rock album — because my husband of 56 years is a huge rock fan… and he’s always said, ‘You should do a rock album.’ And I thought about it a few times, but timing is everything. And then when this all came up… I thought, ‘Well, since I am gonna be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I’m gonna write a song for tonight’ — which I’m gonna sing in a minute.”
With that, Parton excused herself to change out of her sequined minidress, almost leaving her trophy behind at the podium and joking, “See what this means to me? I almost forgot it!” But when she returned to the stage, she was in serious rocker mode, looking like she’d borrowed an outfit from Rob Halford of fellow Class of 2022 inductees Judas Priest. “I’m a rock star now!” she declared, rocking a figure-hugging, bellbottomed, black patent leather catsuit dripping with metal chains. “I figure if I’m gonna be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, I have to earn it,” she explained.
Accompanied by Kent Wells (who Parton said will be producing her rock record) and the Zac Brown Band, Parton proceeded to debut her new rock single, simply and aptly titled “Rockin’,” which shouted out many of the rock ‘n’ roll architects who entered the Hall via the inaugural Class of ’86. “I grew up lovin’ Elvis, and wild-man Jerry Lee/Chuck Berry, Little Richard/They all cast a spell on me/Carl Perkins and those blue suede shoes had no place on the farm… I was just a child, but I went hog-wild/For the rhythm and the beat,” she sang. “I’ve been rockin’, rockin’, rockin’ since the day I was born/I’ll be rockin’ till the day I’m gone/I still got rock ‘n’ roll down in my country soul/And I’ll be rockin’ till the cows come home.”
“And you thought I couldn’t rock!” she quipped, punctuating her statement with a Pete Townshend-like windmill strum across her electric guitar.
Parton’s Rock Hall tribute, which closed Saturday’s ceremony, also included Pink and Brandi Carlile dueting on “Coat of Many Colors” and Sheryl Crow and Brown singing “9 to 5.” But the epic closer was a group number of “Jolene” — certainly a bona fide rock classic, considering that it has been covered by the White Stripes, Miley Cyrus, and even post-punk/gothic bands the Sisters of Mercy and Strawberry Switchblade. The all-star performance featured Brown, Carlile, Crow, and fellow 2022 inductees Eurythmics (with Annie Lennox in a red cowboy hat), Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran, and Halford. (Halford seemed especially delighted to share the stage with Parton, as he cuddled up to the country legend, beaming.) “That was fun!” Parton gushed enthusiastically, hardly seeming like an artist who just announced that she’s retiring from touring.
“We’ve got a star-studded stage! I feel like a hillbilly in the city,” Parton giggled. Earlier, during her acceptance speech, she asked the A-list audience, “Any of you rock stars gonna help me out on [my rock album]? Well, good — ‘cause I’m gonna hold you to it!” Surely everyone who shared the stage with her Saturday would be eager to volunteer their services.
Saturday’s ceremony featured other surprise guests, like Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Ed Sheeran accompanying Class of 2022 inductee Eminem on the “Dream On”-interpolating “Sing for the Moment” and “Stan,” respectively; Sara Bareilles singing “Nobody Does It Better” and Olivia Rodrigo doing “You’re So Vain” to honor inductee Carly Simon, who skipped the event because she is mourning the recent deaths of her two sisters; Dave Grohl, who joined his inductee pal Lionel Richie for a Faith No More-like rendition of the Commodores’ “Easy”; and Bruce Springsteen and John Mellencamp, who played “one last one for the Killer” and paid tribute to the late Jerry Lee Lewis with “High School Confidential” and “Great Balls of Fire.”
While many of the speeches, including obviously Parton’s, were lighthearted and fun, there were more serious moments at the podium. The night began on a somber note with Duran Duran announcing that their original guitarist, Andy Taylor, was unable to attend the ceremony because he is battling stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer. Later, Richie got slightly political during his speech, recalling instances in his career when he was told by people in the industry that he “wasn’t Black enough” and stating, “Rock ‘n’ roll is not a color. It’s a feeling. It’s a vibe.”
And when Mellencamp presented high-powered entertainment attorney Allen Grubman with the Hall’s industry-focused Ahmet Ertegun Award, he mentioned that Grubman is Jewish and said, “I’m a gentile whose life has been enriched by countless Jewish people. … Guys, I cannot tell you how f***ing important it is to speak out, if you’re an artist, against antisemitism, against all forms bigotry, all forms of hatred. Whenever you hear hate speech, whenever you hear saying someone derogatory about someone else, we’re all human beings. I don’t give a f*** if you’re Jewish, Black, white, tutti-frutti. I don’t care. Here’s the trick: Silence is complicity. Can I say that again? Silence is complicity. I want to say I’m standing here tonight loudly and proudly, and in solidarity with Allen, his family, and all of my Jewish friends, and all the entire Jewish people of the world. F*** antisemitism, and f*** anybody who says anything in that manner.”
On the lighter side, perhaps the funniest one-liner of the night was when Priest’s Halford introduced himself with “Hello, I’m the gay guy in the band,” or when Robert Downey Jr., who surprisingly inducted Duran Duran, recalled a “surreal moment” at his 50th birthday party when Duran Duran “played a short set and I shit you not, halfway through ‘Rio,’ a prominent Hollywood director’s wife tore off her bra and tossed it onstage.” But the most entertaining speech overall had to be by Eminem, who — after mentioning his near-fatal 2007 overdose and instructing his daughter Hailie in the audience to “plug your ears” as he admitted, “Drugs were f***ing delicious” — proceeded to spend at least three solid, breathless minutes rattling off a long, alphabetical list of the rap artists who inspired him, from 2 Live Crew and 3rd Bass to the Wu-Tang Clan. “I know that this induction is supposed to be me, like, talking about myself and shit, but f***that,” he said. “I would not be here without them. I’m a high school dropout with a hip-hop education, and these are my teachers and it’s their night just as much as it is mine.” (In a related funny but much less humble moment, Dr. Dre, who inducted Eminem, claimed that Eminem had wanted Dre to mention that Eminem has “a huge penis.”)
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2022 included Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo (who were inducted by Sheryl Crow), Duran Duran, Eminem, Dolly Parton, Lionel Richie (inducted by Lenny Kravitz), Carly Simon (inducted by Sara Bareilles), and Eurythmics, who were inducted by U2’s the Edge and gave the most fiery performance of the night with “Would I Lie to You,” “Missionary Man,” and “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).” The Musical Excellence Award went to Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis (inducted by Janet Jackson) and Judas Priest (inducted by Alice Cooper). Along with Grubman, Sylvia Robinson and Jimmy Iovine also received the Ahmet Ertegun Award, the latter presented by Springsteen. The Early Influence Award went to Harry Belafonte and Elizabeth Cotten.
The 2022 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony took place Nov. 5 at Los Angeles’s Microsoft Theater — the first time the event had been staged in L.A. since 2011. The show will be broadcast on HBO on Nov. 19.
