Scientists have recorded 10 solar flares since the beginning of the day on November 9

On the Sun in the first eight hours of November 9, there were 10 flares. This was reported by the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of the Institute of Space Research (IKI) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS).

"There have been 10 outbreaks in the first eight hours today," it said.

The scientists noted that while moderate-strength outbreaks prevail, a series of higher-class M events is forming on the second day.

"All flares are produced by the same region - 4566, which today came to the center of the visible disk, that is, on a "direct tip" to Earth," the report says.

Further solar flare activity could be a potential source of geomagnetic disturbances in the coming days. According to the forecast of the researchers, large emissions can worsen the magnetic environment from the second half of the week.

On Sunday, November 8, scientists recorded 28 flares on the Sun, and a day earlier - 29. The last indicator repeated the record of the XXI century.
