Advisory: Flare Heads For Al Raqis

Al Raqis Raconteur

Magnetic field distortion blasted megatonnes of super-heated plasma from Lo Parabirra into space, which is forecast to hit Al Raqis in the next 20 hours.


The IISS Stellar Dynamics Observer watched as flares and filaments cast the coronal mass from Spot 1034 as a "solar tsunami" ripped across the star's northern hemisphere.

The planetary magnetic field is expected to deflect this plasma wave, but all vessels in transit and exo-atmospheric installations should prepare for an estimated C3-class event.
