A solar flare is a sudden, intense burst of radiation from the sun's surface, typically associated with the release of magnetic energy stored in the sun’s atmosphere. These events occur in active regions, often near sunspots, and can release a wide spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, visible light, ultraviolet light, and X-rays. Solar flares are caused by the complex interplay of magnetic fields in the sun.
