If you are in the right place, you know that big solar flares have happened, because you see the results of the energized particles striking Earth and being channeled into the north pole and south pole. These results are called the Northern Lights, although they occur at the South pole too.

What were the most explosive events to occur on the sun?

Solar flares, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and solar prominences are some of the most explosive events to occur on the sun. Solar flares are intense bursts of radiation, while CMEs release colossal amounts of solar material into space. Solar prominences are large loops of plasma extending from the sun's surface.

Does sun flare attack the earth in 2012?

No. There will be solar flares in 2012 - there are flares every year, even the last couple of years during the depth of the deepest solar minimum in the last century - but solar flares do not "attack the Earth". It is possible that a massive solar flare could cause communications outages, or damage satellites, or cause spectacular auroras - but that could happen ANY time. There were a few satellites damaged by solar flares during the last solar max, in 2002, but the doom-sayers were wrong about that one, too.
