The geomagnetic activity created by our Sun stirred the sky over Iceland, which makes it possible to observe amazing bright lights at night.
The star of the solar system seems unpredictable and very temperamental, as it releases intense rays and an enormous amount of energetic material in all directions. This leads to the formation of space weather.
The solar wind is a constant stream of electrons, protons and discharged atoms ejected by the sun. But the coronal mass ejections are periodic flashes of a star with the release of large-scale clouds of solar plasma. Such events invade the protective magnetic field of our planet and create geomagnetic storms. Solar emissions - a dangerous phenomenon that can interfere with the development of infrastructure on Earth and in space. This is a serious threat to future lunar and Martian researchers. It is believed that the repetition of the power of the event of 1859 can cause damage to billions of euros, as the work of satellites, electrical systems and radio communications is disrupted.
We do not have the ability to control solar activity, but high-quality tracking methods will make it possible to prevent and protect important infrastructure on time. Now ESA is planning to launch the Lagrange mission, which will monitor the Sun and transmit information to the European space weather network.
