Solar Superstorms And Coronal Mass Ejections: Not If, But When

coronal mass ejection

Ever wonder why solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) form? Or how these events affect Earth’s atmosphere, satellites, and even weather? Physics Girl answers these and other questions in her latest video explaining these phenomena.

Every 11 years, you have more coronal mass ejections as the magnetic poles on the Sun reverse themselves. The last CME was in 2012 and was a Carrington-sized event. But the CME erupted on the opposite side of the Earth, sparing us the worst. It missed the Earth by 9 days.

But when a CME does make it to Earth, the consequences can be devastating. The last one knocked satellites out of the sky!

That happened after the CME, carried on solar winds, hit the atmosphere, making it thicker and slowing down satellites caught in the atmospheric drag.

The peak of the next solar cycle will happen in 2025. That means increasing solar activity, magnetic disturbances, and CMEs, which can lead to fried electronics and transmission lines, power grid instability, and enhanced auroras.

    Might be sooner than you think. Apparently, basically 4 X-class flares in the past 4 days.

      Oh and obviously, it also happens to influence things like volcanoes and earthquakes.

      She’s wrong when she says “Nothing happens to our bodies”.

    Hello PSI readers:
    Please watch the video linked below of Jeff Bezos (Jeffery Preston Jorgensen_ Jew lineage) and his fake “Blue Origen” space launch. Notice the anomalies. another space scam for the masses.

      There’s a real Amazon, and then there’s an “Amazon” which is fraudulent.

        Hello Alcheminister:
        I think Bezos is just another front man Zionist operative. Some one explain to me how a rocket booster is supposed to engage thrusters from high altitude and land backwards as shown in the fake CGI video above. Has no one noticed the dummy in the capsule with his thumb sticking up? And whats the use of a window if it is all hazed up?

            Well, I was born on the same day as Goering. And I had a black dog living with me named “Nutsy”.

            Hi Alcheminister,
            So you are 129 years old. You found the philosopher stone? Are you sure it’s the dog that is Nutsy?

    A decade ago a Lukewarmist blogger banned the words Slayer, Faux Science, Electric Universe and more from his hive mind WUWT website. This TV weather guesser bullied all non GHG commenters. He is very wrong about the ELECTRIC UNIVERSE.

      I believe you are referring to Ben Davidson at Suspicious Observers and the following video.


      The article above is incorrect about a Carrington event type solar flare in 2012, There was 10X flare in November of 2013, but that does not even come close to the strength of the Carrington flare.
