A group of astronomers from the George Mason
University has succeeded for the first time, relate a Coronal Mass
Ejection with solar plasma arc. The finding, published in Nature Communications,
can help predict when these violent
Phenomena take place, can cause serious damage to
the Earth.
Among all known solar phenomena, the Coronal
Mass Ejections (CME) is probably the greatest concern to scientists. Huge
masses of charged particles the Sun ejects without notice and in any direction,
including our planet. Burning clouds of radiation traveling millions of
miles. Per hour than regularly rammed earth and have the potential
to "fry", literally, our power grids and
communications, plunging us into a long period of darkness and silence.
