On May 5, 2024, the Sun unleashed powerful X1.3 and X1.2 solar flares from sunspot cluster AR 3663, causing radio blackouts on Earth. These flares, which are explosions of magnetic energy, could potentially have ongoing effects if they were accompanied by coronal mass ejections (CMEs). At the time of the flares, there are a total of nine active sunspot clusters on the side of the Sun facing Earth, with AR 3663 being the most active. AR 3663 has already emitted multiple M-class and X-class flares, and scientists are predicting that more may be on the way. Solar flares occur when…

A recent study has revealed alarming disparities in preventable premature deaths between rural and urban areas, with rural residents disproportionally affected. According to the study, residents in noncore counties experienced high percentages of preventable premature deaths, with demographic factors such as race and ethnicity also playing a role in disparities.
