[ad_1] Forecasters have issued a warning against 3 sunspots which could emit dangerous solar flares. The Sun has entered its middle age, estimated to be around 4.57 billion years. Scientists say during its last years in the solar system, the Sun will engulf nearby planets like Mercury, Venus and Earth. The study concluded that the Sun will reach its peak temperatures nearly 8 billion years into the future after which it will lower its surface temperature and increase its size. It is during this expansion that the Sun will become a red giant, swallowing nearby planets. Although there is enough time for many of our generations to live out their life fully before the Sun engulfs Earth, the planet faces a danger from the Sun today in the form of solar flares, according to NOAA forecasters...

[ad_1] An unstable Sunspot was observed on the solar surface which could result in solar flares being hurled out. The Sun's solar activity is at a high due to it being nearly in the middle of its 11-year solar cycle. As a result, Earth has been in the firing line of solar flares, solar storms, Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) and more solar phenomena for the past months, and more are expected as the Sun moves ahead in its cycle. Although this solar activity might seem harmless due to the distance of the Sun from our planet, they can cause major damage. Now, scientists have observed an unstable Sunspot which could spit out dangerous solar flares.According to a report by spaceweather.com, Sunspot AR3163 has an unstable magnetic field which could result in a significant explosion. This has ...
