Astronomers have reported a large bulge emission on the Sun about half a million kilometers in size. "The phenomenon was captured by several space telescopes at once," noted the Solar Astronomy Laboratory at the Space Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Experts added that "the bulge flew to the side and not towards the Earth". Of the nearby planets, only Mars will be in its path. A gas cloud can touch our planet on edge, with minor consequences. Scientists have highlighted that bulges are thought to be the source of some of the strongest magnetic storms. Video: Telegram channel of the Solar Astronomy Laboratory of IKI RAS.
