attack of the sun
Bookmarked 612 weeks ago massive solar eruptions take aim at our high-tech society 93 million miles away an angry sun vents its rage dark regions called sunspots appeared unexpectedly on its surface a sign of rising tension within it had been three and a half years since the sun last erupted in furyat the peak of an 11-year cycle of solar flare-upsback then we got ready for it by shutting down satellites that were vulnerable to high levels of radiation but no one expected this in what should have been a low point in solar activity the sun erupted in a series of massive explosions called coronal mass ejections or cmeselectrified gas clouds weighing billions of tons raced outward solar telescopes recorded the action the largest emission of solar x-rays ever seen the hottest flares at tens of millions of degrees and the fastest reaching speeds clocked at six million miles per hour the sun became a giant plasma weapon more potent than any in science fiction and pointed right at our home planet on earth the halloween storms produced some of the most spectacular auroras ever seen at the north and south poles they also brought jolts of electricity that caused power outages in sweden and disrupted airline navigationin space these storms damaged 28 communications satellites and destroyed two and they didn039t stop there as the energetic surge swept past mars it was so strong it burned out the radiation monitor aboard the spacecraft mars global surveyor ironically this instrument was designed to study radiation that human explorers might encounter on future missions beyond earth months later the rush of solar energy washed over the two voyager spacecraft on their way to the far reaches of the solar system cmes like these have been known to blast their way out the far edges of the solar system where the solar wind meets the flow of gas around the galaxy itself this stormy season on the sun lasted about five weeks it was by no means the worst a solar eruption in 1859 was so powerful it set fire to telegraph offices several people got nasty electric shocks simply because they were working with metal objects and for the next few nights auroras were reportedly bright enough to read bya similar storm today could easily cause more than two trillion dollars in damage to our high-tech infrastructure twenty times greater than hurricane katrina but believe it or not the threat is about to get even worse we are beginning to change the way we acquire and use energy by expanding our power grid to accommodate wind farmssolar arrays new nuclear plants and other renewable energy sourcesthis grid will get larger and smarter with microprocessors in most every devicecommunicating and negotiating with one another running everything from air conditioners to power plants a sudden surge of solar activity could strike the grid directlyinflicting a substantial amount of damage on the emerging smart power economyto understand what a powerful force the sun can be take a look at venus at almost exactly the same size and mass as earth it039s truly our sister planet the thinking is that long ago fierce solar winds stripped off lighter water molecules from its upper atmosphere what was left was a witches039 brew of acidic gases and carbon dioxide that thickened at lower altitudes rising to some 90 times the density of earth039s atmosphere at a concentration of 95 in venus039 atmosphere co2 gas trapped increasing amounts of sunlight and drove surface temperatures close to 1000 degrees fahrenheit how did earth avoid such a harsh fate one of the main reasons is that our planet has what venus lacks a natural defense against solar attacks |
