solar storms
Solar storms, also known as space weather events, refer to intense bursts of energy and particles emitted by the Sun. These disturbances can include solar flares, which are sudden releases of radiation; and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which involve massive eruptions of plasma and magnetic fields from the Sun's corona. Solar storms can disrupt Earth's magnetosphere, potentially causing damage to satellites, power grids, and communication systems.
