A powerful solar storm is approaching the planet at a speed of 1.6 million kilometers and this storm will hit the planet either on Sunday (July 11) or Monday (July 12). People living at northerly or southerly latitudes also can expect to determine beautiful aurora during the night time , a report with Spaceweather.com has stated.
The solar storm that originated from the Sun's atmosphere can have a really relevant impact on a neighborhood of space dominated by Earth's magnetic flux , the report said.
Solar winds are streams of charged particles or plasma that erupt from the Sun and out into space.
According to the US space agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the solar storm is moving towards the world at a speed of about 1.6 million kilometers per hour and maybe its speed will increase further.
NASA said that satellite signals are often interrupted by solar storms. It also estimates that these winds top, on the average , speeds of about a million miles per hour but can go faster.
Due to solar storms, the outer atmosphere of the world are often heated which may have an immediate effect on satellites.
This can cause interference with GPS navigation, mobile signal and satellite television . The current in power lines are often high, which may also blow transformers.
