Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Luckily, our magnetic field protects against space rays Technology and solar rays don’t mix too well, either. Solar storms have the potential to fry electronic circuitry in spacecraft, and disrupt GPS technology, cause communications blackouts and damage the computer or smartphone you’re using to read this article.
Detailed explanation-2: -The sun occasionally releases pent-up energy in the form of a blast of plasma called a coronal mass ejection (CME) or solar flare. CMEs can dramatically change Earth’s magnetic field, which can cause power grids to fail as equipment is affected or destroyed.
