Solar Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and NASA have captured a solar explosion that took place on November 12. Its effects could be felt on the Earth Monday, November 15, researchers say. Explosion is expected to affect Earth's magnetic field between 14 and 15 November. After the explosion, taking the direction of Earth's solar particles, KF News warns. During a solar eruptions, an immense amount of energy is released instantaneously. Matter is projected at high speed in interplanetary space. The phenomenon is accompanied by the emission of X-rays, radio waves and, when strong eruptions, and visible light. When you enter Earth's atmosphere, especially above the North Pole region, the particles create polar auroras. They also disrupt the propagation of radio waves around the globe, affecting the electricity distribution networks. The frequency and intensity of the phenomenon varies with a period of about 11 years, this time recording the number of sunspot minimum and maximum. Solar activity is influenced by Sun's rotation and magnetism.
