Warning! Solar flares surge to 108 million degrees, threatening satellites, astronauts, and global technology

A new study reveals solar flares can reach a staggering 108 million degrees Fahrenheit, six times hotter than previously thought. This discovery resolves a decades-old mystery about broadened spectral lines in flare light, indicating superheated ions. The findings are crucial for refining space weather forecasting, protecting satellites, astronauts, and global communication systems from solar storm hazards.
