Neel Savani, UMBC/NASA Goddard Researcher, Explains Solar Storm Forecasting Technique in The conversation
In an article for The Conversation this week, Neel Savani, UMBC researcher at NASA Goddard, reviewed the disruption solar storms can cause and how a new forecasting technique developed at NASA Goddard can provide a 24 hour warning. Solar storms are explosions from the surface of the sun that can shoot out into space and affect the planets they pass. Savani explains how solar storms affect the Earth, saying, “If a solar storm makes it to Earth, it can disrupt a variety of modern technologies including GPS and high-frequency communications, and even power grids on the ground, causing radio blackouts and… Continue Reading Neel Savani, UMBC/NASA Goddard Researcher, Explains Solar Storm Forecasting Technique in The conversation
