In this sequences and probability activity, students solve 3 problems by writing out all the possibilities for the solution and they use probability to find their answers. They determine the probability of solar flares happening on a...

In this data corruption by high-energy particles, students solve 4 problems about the solar flare that corrupted the imagers measuring them. Students find the speed of the arriving particles and the percentage of light-speed the...

In this sequences and probabilities activity, students read about solar storms and determine the probability that none of the events occurred on the same day.

Solar flares are huge explosions on the Sun that emit lots of electromagnetic radiation.
