Colossal X class flare heading towards Earth

The Sun is crackling with sunspot activity at the moment, on Thursday October 3rd a massive flare, the largest  in this solar cycle and the largest since 2017 was blasted towards the Earth.

It is predicted that when it hits the Earth there could be some spectacular Aurora or Northern Light displays on Saturday 5th or Sunday 6th October.

If it is clear on those nights then watch the skies you might be lucky enough to see those wonderful Northern Lights.
