Huge sunspot set to Explode! X-class solar flare likely to cause blackouts on Earth today

[ad_1] Sunspot AR3112 is on the verge of explosion. There is a possibility of an x-class solar flare eruption today that can cause radio blackouts on Earth. This week has been scary for Earth and latest National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) projections suggest that it is going to get a lot scarier. Just a couple of days ago, the USA suffered heavy radio blackouts due to an X1-class solar flare eruption on the Sun. The biggest effect was felt in Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina where rescue operations and disaster management missions are being conducted in the wake of Hurricane Ian. The eruption resulted in GPS and radio waves being blocked and these operations being delayed by hours. Now, the Earth is looking at another solar flare eruption which can be even...

Solar flare disrupts rescue missions of Hurricane Ian in USA! This is what happened

[ad_1] X-class solar flare eruptions put a temporary halt on emergency responders who were carrying out disaster response and rescue missions from the aftermath of hurricane Ian. On Sunday, October 2, Hurricane Ian affected regions in the USA suffered a temporary setback as the Sun blasted powerful X-class solar flares in the direction of the Earth. The solar flare charge disrupted the communication systems and rendered the various disaster response and rescue missions useless for a short period of time. This timing proved to be extremely critical as the hurricane has caused massive damage to life and property and the emergency services were aiming to save the victims, who are fighting between life and death, as soon as possi...

Alert! Giant sunspot emerges on Sun; can blast dangerous X-class solar flares at Earth

[ad_1] One of the largest sunspots of the year has emerged on the Sun. Scientists are concerned that it can cause an X-class solar flare eruption directed towards the Earth. Just hours after the Earth was struck by a G2-class solar storm, a scarier development has occurred on the Sun. A new sunspot has emerged on the Earth-facing side of the solar disk. And this sunspot, named AR3112, is one of the largest seen this year. Just based on its size, it is capable of causing an X-class solar flare which can result in widespread radio blackout on Earth. The event was recorded using the tech marvel DSCOVR satellite. It has various instruments to observe temperature, speed, density, degree of orientation and frequency of solar partic...

ALERT! Dangerous solar storm headed towards Earth; Will it trigger a blackout?

[ad_1] Horrific material flowing from a double hole on the Sun will cause a major solar storm event on October 1, 2022. Can it trigger a radio blackout on Earth? After almost a week of peace, the Sun has blasted a powerful burst of solar material towards the Earth. These horrific gaseous materials have escaped from a double equatorial hole on the Sun's surface and are directly headed towards the Earth. According to NOAA projections, a solar storm can hit the Earth on October 1 and it might be more powerful than the ones that we have seen recently. The NOAA space weather forecast system uses the technology aboard the DSCOVR satellite which observes the Sun and other regional activity in space that may have an adverse impact on...
