>The sun has unleashed four powerful solar flares towards Earth that could wreak havoc on radios and GPS satellites.
The stellar bombardment began on February 1 at 12:33 GMT as the sun fired off a class X1.0 flare.
Class–X flares are the most powerful blasts our sun is capable of, and are at least 10 times more potent than the next class down, known as 'M' flares.
This was followed 11 hours later, at 23:37 GMT, by a massive X8.1 flare – the largest since October 2024, and the 19th–strongest ever recorded.
