A solar storm made landfall on Earth on Tuesday, and another is approaching in its wake. The first to create some stunning auroras, and experts reveal whether there will be Internet and power outages. Space weather experts rate the new solar storm as class G1.
Sun has been in a fairly active state for the past few months. The star has frequently erupted and caused solar storms toward Earth. Its most recent cause Sun storm crashed into Earth without causing any damage, but it caused beautiful auroras across the north WE and Canada. Dr Tamitha Skov, a space weather expert, predicted that a ‘snake-like filament’ was detected on the sun’s surface on Friday and it was moving towards Earth.
Mike Cook, who works in space weather operations, is quoted by DailyMail.com like saying, “There were some CMEs [coronal mass ejection] erupted in the past few days (solar storms) but also has an annular hole (black hole-like structures) as the central disk. We’ll see the effects of that in the next 2-3 days. “
Although photos of the stunning aurora borealis have been posted all over the internet, space weather experts predict that this is not over yet and a G1-class solar storm is heading towards Earth. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC), a Category G1 hurricane is expected to make landfall on our planet on Thursday or Thursday. Six. According to the US Space Weather Center, the strength of a G1 class hurricane is Small while a G5 class is considered extremely strong. These small storms can cause weak grid fluctuations, affect satellite operations, animals and interfere with satellite operations. Sebastian Voltmer, an internationally awarded astronomer, told DailyMail.com via email, “Losing internet connectivity should be anyone’s least concern. GPS, radio blackouts, and changes in pressure in the Earth’s higher atmosphere are problematic effects.”
A solar storm is a phenomenon in which disturbances on the Sun can radiate outward through the heliosphere affecting the entire Solar System, including The earth and from its book. It occurs when the Sun emits large bursts of energy in the form of solar rays.
