Astronomers reveal that on June 2nd at roughly 1300 UT, a solar flare has hit Earth s magnetic field delivered by a solar storm that left the sun s surface on May 28th. Despite fears. The weak impact caused no harm to the planet, nor did it alter solar wind speeds around the Earth.
Solar storms can potentially cause serious threats to the way of life on Earth. Streams of particles from the Sun can interfere with satellite technology and more. This is why astronomers keep a watchful eye on the Sun s activities.
