Radiation from the flare briefly ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere, causing a brownout of shortwave radiation over Asia and the Indian Ocean: map. Frequencies affected were mainly below 20 MHz. Ham radio operators and ships at sea using shortwave transceivers may have noticed the disturbance on May 9th around 05:50 UT.
I like astronomy, archaeology, photography, music and drinking a lot of tea. I hate politics. Something that annoys me: that I shall not respect the permanence, and to take me by what I'm not. The best sign: VIRGO. The worst: the health. The best: adapt and know how to get ahead.

ANOTHER SOLAR FLARE
May 9th began with a bang. Big sunspot AR2740 produced another solar flare, this time an impulsive C7-category explosion. Telescopes onboard NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured the extreme ultraviolet flash:
