On Jan. 27, 2012, a large X-class flare erupted from an active region
near the solar west limb. X-class flares are the most powerful of all
solar events. Seen here is an image of the flare captured by the X-ray
telescope on Hinode. This image shows an emission from plasma heated to
greater than eight million degrees during the energy release process of
the flare.
