 Flares are closely associated with the ejection of plasmas and particles through the Sun's corona into outer space; flares also copiously emit radio waves. If the ejection is in the direction of the Earth, particles associated with this disturbance can penetrate into the upper atmosphere (the ionosphere) and cause bright auroras, and may even disrupt long range radio communication. It usually takes days for the solar plasma ejecta to reach Earth. Flares also occur on other stars, where the term stellar flare applies. High-energy particles, which may be relativistic, can arrive almost simultaneously with the electromagnetic radiations.

 A simple OXP that adds some flavour to systems that have "solar activity". The corona flare value of the sun occasionally increases, and then returns back to normal after a short period of time.
-It's worth noting that if a flare should occur whilst scooping fuel, you could be in trouble. '''Always''' have a jump preset! Even with the temperature on purple, you can survive if you jump out immediately, as your ship will cool down fast in Witchspace.
