X-FLARE: For days, giant sunspot AR1515 has looked capable of producing a
really strong explosion. On July 6th it finally did. Yesterday, the
sunspot's magnetic canopy erupted, producing a brief but potent X1.1-class
solar flare. The explosion hurled a CME into space and sparked a solar
proton storm around Earth. Check http://spaceweather.com for images and
