Earth hit by huge energy blast from the Sun as major solar storm warning issued

animals could be disrupted. But on a more positive note, solar storms can also cause incredible sights like the Northern Lights.The NOAA said a geomagnetic storm is a "major disturbance of Earth's magnetosphere that occurs when there is a very efficient exchange of energy from the solar wind into the space environment surrounding Earth"."These storms result from variations in the solar wind that produces major changes in the currents, plasmas, and fields in Earth’s magnetosphere," it added.In the event of a G5 storm - on the more serious scale - Earth could see a radio blackout on the planet's entire sunlight side, lasting for a number of hours.The GOAA said this would result in "no HF radio contact with mariners and en route aviators in this sector".

Clayton Davis Will Smith, Chris Rock and the Academy may feel they can turn the page on this dramatic chapter following the announcement that Smith would be banned from the ceremony for 10 years.
