The recent solar activity and its effects on the earth have attracted the attention of scientists

In the last week, Khursheed has seen a significant increase in its activities. These activities include powerful solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are normal phenomena in the life cycle of stars. However, the increase in intensity and frequency of these events in the last week has attracted the attention of scientists and those interested in space phenomena.

According to Tekna Technology Media Astronomy News Service, on Thursday, September 12, 2024, a class X solar flare, which is considered the most powerful type of solar flare, erupted from the surface of the Sun. This eruption disrupted radio communications in large areas of Africa, Europe and Asia. Also, this flare and other flares that have occurred in recent days are predicted to cause geomagnetic storms on Earth.

Geomagnetic storms occur when energetic particles emitted from the Sun collide with the Earth’s magnetic field. This collision can disrupt power grids, communication systems, and satellites. Also, strong geomagnetic storms can cause auroras to appear at lower latitudes.

The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Space Weather Prediction Center has warned that geomagnetic storms are still possible in the coming days. These storms can affect people’s daily lives and cause significant economic losses. Scientists are continuously monitoring solar activity to predict the possible effects of these activities on Earth. However, it is very difficult to accurately predict the Sun’s behavior and unexpected events can still occur. The study of solar activity is of great importance, because these activities can have significant effects on human life. By better understanding these phenomena, we can take the necessary measures to reduce their destructive effects on critical infrastructure.
