earthquake light (from Wikipedia):
An earthquake light, is an unusual luminous aerial phenomenon, that reportedly appears in the sky at or near areas of tectonic stress, seismic activity, or volcanic eruptions. Once commonly challenged, it was not until photographs were taken during the Matsushiro earthquake swarm, from 1965 through 1967, that the seismology community acknowledged their occurrence.

Wikipedia, about solar flares:
Classification
Solar flares are classified as A, B, C, M or X according to the peak flux (in watts per square meter, W/m2) of 100 to 800 picometer X-rays near Earth, as measured on the GOES spacecraft. Each class has a peak flux ten times greater than the preceding one, with X class flares having a peak flux of order 10−4 W/m2. Within a class there is a linear scale from 1 to 9, so an X2 flare is twice as powerful as an X1 flare, and is four times more powerful than an M5 flare. The more powerful M and X class flares are often associated with a variety of effects on the near-Earth space environment. Although the GOES classification is commonly used to indicate the size of a flare, it is only one measure. This extended logarithmic classification is necessary because the total energies of flares range over many orders of magnitude, following a uniform distribution with flare frequency roughly proportional to the inverse of the total energy. Stellar flares (and earthquakes) show similar power-law distributions.
Superflares, from wikipedia:
Superflares are very strong explosions of even Sun-like stars that increase their energy production about one million times more than the production made by a strong eruption. According to scientists, the cause for such an eruption can be the interaction of the star’s magnetic field and the magnetic field of a Jupiter-like planet.
Super flare stars
As of 2000, nine super-flare stars have been found, some of them similar to our Sun. During such an explosion, 100 to 10 million times as much energy is released as that released by the largest coronal mass ejections of the Sun.

Superflare on earth(?) SuperFlare audio story:
May 6, 2008: At 11:18 AM on the cloudless morning of Thursday, September 1, 1859, 33-year-old Richard Carrington—widely acknowledged to be one of England’s foremost solar astronomers—was in his well-appointed private observatory. Just as usual on every sunny day, his telescope was projecting an 11-inch-wide image of the sun on a screen, and Carrington skillfully drew the sunspots he saw.

On that morning, he was capturing the likeness of an enormous group of sunspots. Suddenly, before his eyes, two brilliant beads of blinding white light appeared over the sunspots, intensified rapidly, and became kidney-shaped. Realizing that he was witnessing something unprecedented and “being somewhat flurried by the surprise,” Carrington later wrote, “I hastily ran to call someone to witness the exhibition with me. On returning within 60 seconds, I was mortified to find that it was already much changed and enfeebled.” He and his witness watched the white spots contract to mere pinpoints and disappear.
It was 11:23 AM. Only five minutes had passed.
Just before dawn the next day, skies all over planet Earth erupted in red, green, and purple auroras so brilliant that newspapers could be read as easily as in daylight. Indeed, stunning auroras pulsated even at near tropical latitudes over Cuba, the Bahamas, Jamaica, El Salvador, and Hawaii.
Even more disconcerting, telegraph systems worldwide went haywire. Spark discharges shocked telegraph operators and set the telegraph paper on fire. Even when telegraphers disconnected the batteries powering the lines, aurora-induced electric currents in the wires still allowed messages to be transmitted.

GEOMAGNETIC PULSATIONS AND TUNGUSKA-1908
PHENOMENON
German, Boris
Institute for Physics of the Ukrainian Academy of ScienceINTRODUCTION
In the early morning on June 30, 1908 at 7:15 (± 5 min) a.m. that correspond to 0:14 (± 5 min) UT, a powerful explosion occurred in the Kulik-caldera, Eastern Siberia. Scientists examining the area estimated that the explosion was equivalent to 5÷40 megatons of TNT. The blast felled trees in an area over 2,150 square km. Barometric and seismic disturbances from the explosion were recorded world-wide. For the first three nights after the Tunguska explosion, skies of Eurasia were exceptionally bright and then the effect abruptly disappeared. Although most observers generally accept that some kind of a celestial body, either a comet or an asteroid, could blow up, however, the main puzzle is the absence of space-body remnants in/on the ground in the affected region. And now, more 100 years later, the debate about the Tunguska event continues.
PULSATIONS IN KIEL AND THE VORTEX OF GRAVITY
Linear gravitational field equations, that are obtained from Maxwell’s equations by using gravitational vectors instead of electromagnetic vectors, have attracted the attention of scientists long ago. When Heavisidian monopoles are taken into account the equations can be modified by introducing two scalar fields. In 1969, J. Carstoiu [1] presented the so-called vortex field of gravitational force, comparable to the electromagnetic system.
For the first time vortical structures on the Sun were observed in 1857 [2]. On May 5, 1907 the same structures were registered on the sundisk again. A. Stentzel has paid attention to the effect of a 50-yr period of these structures. The effect of inversion of speeds for neutral points of polarization has been noted since May, 10th 1907 when the rate of increase of Arago point has exceeded the rate of increase of point Babine [3]. Obviously, this effect could correlate with above mentioned vortical structures on the Sun at that time. Increasing of the angular distance of neutral points (both Arago and Babine), which has begun on May, 1907, proceeded till the end of June, 1908. Exactly after the Tunguska explosion the maximum relative increase of the polarization for the whole period from 1905 till 1910 was recorded [4].
