Solar storm heads Earth's way
« on: September 18, 2014, 09:34:41 AM »
Two big explosions on the surface of the sun will cause a moderate to strong geomagnetic storm on Earth in the coming days, possibly disrupting radio and satellite communications.

Do not worry. That storm didn't cause mass damage because the fast-moving energized particles were not directed straight at Earth.
