The Sun expelled a strong solar flare on June 20. This powerful event was captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which regularly monitors the Sun. The solar flare was seen coming from the sunspot AR3341, a dark patch on the Sun that originated over a region with powerful magnetic fields. Eruptions from the Sun are frequently being reported of late.
