A solar flare is a sudden and intense burst of energy on the sun's surface, releasing a burst of X-rays, UV radiation, and charged particles
Solar prominences are large, bright features extending from the sun's surface into the corona, composed of hot plasma
Geomagnetic storms result from solar activity, impacting Earth's magnetosphere, causing auroras and tech issues
A magnetosphere is a protective magnetic field surrounding a celestial body, shielding it from solar and cosmic radiation
The solar wind consists of charged particles continuously ejected from the sun, impacting the planets and creating space weather phenomena
