The Earth recently faced its most powerful solar storm in more than twenty years, raising concerns about possible disruptions to satellites and power grids.
Scientists observed several coronal mass ejections (CMEs) coming from the Sun, sparking excitement on social media about auroras spotted from northern Europe to Australasia.
In response to the situation, authorities issued alerts, urging people to keep an eye on the night sky for auroras and to be aware of potential impacts on power lines and pipelines.
Experts also advised having backup plans ready in case of power outages caused by the solar storm.
