Detailed explanation-1: -Luckily, our magnetic field protects against space rays 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: -Solar storms cause damage to communication systems. During geomagnetic storms some radio frequencies are absorbed and others are reflected, leading to rapidly fluctuating signals and unexpected propagation paths (reproducing or multiplying in unplanned directions). Public and amateur radio is frequently disrupted.
Detailed explanation-3: -Strong electrical currents driven along the Earth’s surface during auroral events disrupt electric power grids and contribute to the corrosion of oil and gas pipelines. Changes in the ionosphere during geomagnetic storms interfere with high-frequency radio communications and Global Positioning System (GPS) navigation.
Detailed explanation-4: -Disruption of electrical systems. Main electrical grid. Communications. Navigation systems. Satellite hardware damage. Pipelines. Radiation hazards to humans. Effect on animals.
