The Sun Is Showing Halloween Spirit!
Pumpkin Jack O’ Lantern after the blood moon—maybe the sun is just trying to say it’s in the mood for Halloween!
NASA:
"Such storms on the surface of the Sun can result in radiation and charged particles of matter erupting from the disturbance. These clouds of energetic material can race toward the Earth, occasionally striking our planet. These events can sometimes result in the display of slights in the sky over the poles. More extreme occurrences are capable of disrupting satellite communications, and could even cause outages in electrical equipment. Astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) are in no danger from such eruptions, due to the low orbit of the outpost – just 205 miles above the planet. This places space travelers well within the protective cover of the Earth’s magnetic field. ”
