Photo of a flare being lit
In general, a flare is a sudden, bright light.
A flare like in the picture is a signalling or safety device. It is a bright light that can be lit when needed, for example if you are on a boat and it gets wrecked and you need to signal for help. The light from the flare helps rescuers find you.
