This image, captured by the Solar
Dynamics Observatory, shows the M5.3 class solar flare that peaked on July 4,
2012, at 5:55 AM EDT. The flare is shown in the 131 Angstrom wavelength, a
wavelength that is particularly good for capturing the radiation emitted from
flares. The wavelength is typically colorized in teal as shown here.
