Earth welcomes the new year in the solar storm

Astronomers are hoping for a cloudy sky over the next three days, because a powerful solar storm will shoot particles towards Earth and create a spectacular aurora.

However, scientists are not so excited. As expected, global radio signals will be affected, even interrupted and lose signals completely because of this CME storm .

NASA's ship has captured images of CME battles being rushed towards Earth

It can hold up to one billion tons of Plasma moving at 1.6 million km / h. Ultraviolet and X-ray radiation associated with CME can reach 100,000,000 degrees C. Scientists predict that CME will peak in 2013.

Nasa's Stereo-B spacecraft has sent back to Earth images showing that the CME battles are rushing out from the Sun.'During the three days of December 29, 31, 31, the Earth will welcome a lot of CME. The phenomena of radio waves that will be fluttering will occur at level R1 (light) and extend into the new year ' , NASA predicts. Radio-dependent devices such as GPS systems, radio stations and cell phones will be affected.

Storms from the sun can cause spectacular aurora but
Can also destroy radio signals of the global telecommunications system.

According to DailyMail , when CME landed on Earth in the right conditions, it would cause a beautiful aurora phenomenon. That's because ionized particles from the sun are 'confined' in the Earth's magnetic field, which activates gas in the atmosphere and emits energy in the form of light.

However, these plasma particles can also cause magnetic storms and in strong cases, the electric network or satellite operation can be destroyed. In 1989, a CME match was the culprit that caused 6 million people in Quebec, Canada to live in a power outage.

Last month, one of the biggest solar storms in history was recorded and caused the loss of telecommunications in many areas on Earth.
