Sunspot region 4114 has unleashed its most powerful solar flare yet — an X1.9 class that erupted late June 19 , triggering shortwave radio blackouts across the Pacific Ocean , including parts of Hawaii .
The X-class flares are the most energetic class of solar flares, with each step up in number representing a tenfold increase in power.
The flare also appears to have destabilized a large magnetic filament located in sun's southern hemisphere.
