SDO captures images of mid-level solar flares
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured images of the flares, which were classified as an M5.8-class and an M5.1-class, respectively.
These were the second and third flares from the same active region — numbered Active Region 12297 — after it rotated over the left side of the sun on March 7.
