Big solar blast may hit Earth[views:1781][posts:12]_______________________________________ [Oct 24,2003 12:49pm - the_reverend ""] http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/space/10/24/solar.forecast/index.html Satellites, pagers, cell phones and electrical grids could be affected this afternoon by a powerful stream of energized gas and particles from the sun. The coronal mass ejection, or CME, is expected to reach Earth about 3 p.m. EDT and its effects could last 12 to 18 hours, according to space weather forecasters. The solar blast erupted from a cluster of sunspots on the surface of the sun. I guess now's a bad time to go to the beach.. well, besides the fact it's -80 degrees out there. |
