A solar flare is a sudden and intense release of energy from the surface of the sun, often accompanied by a coronal mass ejection (CME) that can impact Earth's magnetic field and potentially disrupt satellite communications and power grids. As our reliance on technology and satellite infrastructure grows, understanding solar flares is crucial for predicting and mitigating their effects on our increasingly connected world, making them a key area of study for the tech community and space weather researchers.
