NASA has officially confirmed that in the next few years will see a large increase in solar storms directly from the sun. These solar winds should begin this year and last year in the 2012th What are the five possible effects of solar storms?
After the team met the Enterprise space weather forum in Washington, and discussed the effects of solar storms activity.This ongoing debate focused more on our defense and satellite communications systems, and finding ways to monitor each new storm, when the reaches the Earth from the Sun.
Dr. Fisher the current head of NASA's Heilophysics division was quoted as saying during a groundbreaking meeting, "We are taking this very seriously indeed.", And commented that NASA monitor potential wind coming from the sun, with their group of satellites to create an early warning system of sorts. But he added a number of experts will begin to coordinate a response to any impending storm activity.
Here are five possible effects of solar storms were attacks from the Sun:
1 Satellite Attacks
Our planet has a ring of satellites that were in the area of the United States and Russia began the space race in the early 1950s. Some of these satellites have now become "Space Junk", while others allow us to watch live television events, call from our mobile phones, using GPS systems, internet access., And even travel through the air.
Solar flares can damage or destroy these satellites, and adversely affect how we live on zemlji.Ista group of experts who met in Washington, spoke of the urgent need to protect satellites from increased storm unstable winds from the Sun.
2 Impact on military satellites
It was no secret that some satellites floating above us in the universe are exclusively for military use. We are aware, if these satellites are armed or not, but we know that they are also used to monitor military assistance to countries in the field. Can a solar storm damage, destroy or cause any damage to these satellites?. It is possible, and I May wonder what damage it can bring.
3 temporary collapse of old power plants?
Solar storms can knock out and burn out electrical transformers that are essential to maintain our power grids. After knocking or "roasted" by the radiation from the storm, they must be replaced in order to re-launch of our electrical systems. Depending on the speed of the storm, electricity could be knocked out for hours, days, weeks, months or in the worse case scenarios.
4 Beautiful, but cruel Auroras
When solar storms hit Earth's Aurora, similar to the northern and southern lights appear at night. This beautiful, but cruel cosmic sound and light show is an introduction to our electricity grid is affected by radiation from the storm.
5 Air crash
When a solar storm hits our atmosphere, anything electrical in the room or in our sky, could adversely affect. Aircraft could lose their power, and GPS systems have become distorted with the fall zračenja.Blaga storms can affect us, but more storms could hit the aircraft, satellites and space craft, which leads to the air space becomes a no-fly zone.
We can not attack the solar storm, just as we can not attack the strong winds or rain. Space weather is a fact of life that we used to, and as we get warned about the coming hurricane, we have a satellite named "Ace", who comes to meet any impending storm. It gives us time to prepare for the upcoming storm. However, the only real defense against storms that shut down our power grids, satellites and close the air space until the storm passes.
What happens in the universe affects what we are here on Earth. And for years the effects of solar flares have led to many doomsday movies and imaginative works of science fiction. However, this is all speculative, as well as our own experts freely admit - no one is really sure what the final results of the incoming storm will bring, besides the fact the storm season is getting closer to
