   BRIGHT SOLAR FLARE: Active sunspot 1121 has just unleashed one of the   
   brightest x-ray solar flares in several years, an M5.4-class eruption at 15:36   
   UT on Nov. 6th. Radiation from the flare created a wave of ionization in   
   Earth's upper atmosphere that altered the propagation of low-frequency radio   
   waves.  There was, however, no bright CME (plasma cloud) hurled in our   
   direction, so the event is unlikely to produce auroras in the nights ahead.   
   Visit http://spaceweather.com for a movie of the eruption and more information   
   about this increasingly active sunspot.
