Unprecedented ‘Dark Hole’ on sun emitting ‘Unusually Fast Radiation’ toward earth.

An unprecedented “enormous dark hole” has opened in the sun’s surface and spewed streams of “unusually fast radiation” directly towards Earth, scientists say.

The giant dark patch, called a coronal hole, is wider than the size of 60 Earths put together, according to Space.com.

NASA shared a video loop of the massive patch on its Solar Dynamics Observatory website on Saturday.

The coronal hole formed close to the sun’s equator on December 2, reaching its maximum width of around 497,000 miles within 24 hours, Space Weather reported.

The scientific outlet warned that the solar wind radiation directed at Earth could cause mild to moderate “geomagnetic storms” — temporary disturbances in the Earth’s magnetosphere that could disturb electrical grids, satellites, and high-frequency communication systems.

By Wednesday, the hole was no longer directly pointing at Earth, so the radiation waves became less intense.
