The Sun emitted a strong solar flare on Oct. 2, 2022, peaking at 4:25pm ET. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory captured an image of the event, which was classified as X1. https://go.nasa.gov/3SSeuke

Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. Harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground, however – when intense enough – they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS & communications signals travel.

Mt. Baekdu (백두산) in North Korea

It is the highest mountain on the Korean peninsula at about 2,750 meters (9,000 ft) above sea level.

The mountain has been considered sacred by Koreans throughout history. According to Korean mythology, it was the birthplace of Dangun, the founder of the first Korean kingdom, Gojoseon (2333–108 BC), whose parents were said to be Hwanung, the Son of Heaven, and Ungnyeo, a bear who had been transformed into a woman. Many subsequent kingdoms of Korea, such as Buyeo, Goguryeo, Balhae, Goryeo and Joseon worshiped the mountain.
