Solar Storm is about to reach Earth in the near future: the risk of attacking the electrical and satellite systems

A storm of the Sun is approaching and will touch the Earth tomorrow. What will its impact be?

According to new information recorded from NASA, a powerful solar storm is heading to Earth, with the potential to cause strong disturbances to the planet's energy and satellite systems. And that storm will reach the planet's atmosphere today or tomorrow.

In particular, experts say that there is a big hole on the surface of the Sun - the sun's corona . From here, solar winds with extremely fast charged charged particles are emitted, traveling throughout the solar system.

According to NOAA (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), the storm is rated G2 - the average of the 5 rating scales (including G, R and S). This assessment is based on the size of the coronary hole and the predicted rate of charge flow.

The most noticeable effect of the storm from this time is the extremely clear aurora in the North . This phenomenon can be seen by people in high latitude areas in the US and UK.

However, a more serious effect is possible, which is the storm from interfering with the electricity network of many countries , affecting their energy system. The satellite TV system will also be disturbed without any way to resolve it, until the storm passes.

Although it is just a storm that is not too strong, it can affect the information technology network of people.

In addition, since storms also affect the Earth's magnetic system, some flights may also be destroyed, causing economic losses.

It is known that the Sun operates cyclically for about 11 years. Currently, the solar host star is in a less active phase, estimated to be at least 2019-2020.

However, the effects of the Sun storm are still there. Although it is just a storm that is not too strong, it can affect the information technology network of people. Even the magnetic field emitted could cause our cosmic trash pieces . to jump off, easily hitting more satellites.

NASA and NOAA are still continuing to monitor activities from the Sun through space probes and telescopes. With this assessment, experts warn that countries should prepare in advance the unfortunate power system disturbance.
