Huge solar flare ejected from sun could hit Earth in days, mess with power grid

Posted by in categories: particle physics, space

Space weather experts have spotted the sun ejecting a large mass of particles and think this could hit Earth in the next few days.

When ejections like this hit Earth’s magnetic field, they can cause solar storms.

An ejection like this is known as a solar flare called a coronal mass ejection (CME).
