Large solar flares and CME eruption
On 3 June 2026, Active region 14455 produced several major (M- and X-class) flares and eruptions. Attached video shows solar activity during this period as observed by GONG/El Teide (Canary Islands). A major flare of M7.7 class peaked at about 7:00 UT and another flare of X1.0 class peaked at about 11:28 UT. Flares of this class are typically associated with the coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and in fact, there is an idication of the erupting material during the first flare (see dark filamentary structures appearing shortly after the flare brightenning). LASCO C3 coronagraph shows CME signatures for both events.
