A massive solar storm has knocked out radio communication that is expected to affect millions across theย world.ย
The major X9.05 solar flare was fired from the sun and is expected to impact regions in Africa, the Atlantic Ocean and eastern South America. According to spaceflight meteorologist Nick Stewart, the major X-class solar flare is “in progress.”
The massive solar flare, has the power to spark shortwave radio blackouts. It has already affected communication across Hawaii and the Pacific Ocean.
The latest flare, that was fired from the sun earlier this week, is the second-strongest one to have hit Earth this solar cycle. The current solar cycle started in 2019 and these strong bursts could indicate that we have entered its peak.
