describe each solar activity and explain how each impact the earth. solar activity description impact on earth sunspots and solar flare prominences
Sunspots and solar flares: Sunspots are cooler, darker regions on the Sun's surface caused by intense magnetic fields. Solar flares are sudden, intense bursts of radiation from the Sun. They can disrupt radio communications, cause power - grid surges, and pose risks to astronauts in space.
Prominences: Prominences are large, bright, gaseous features extending outward from the Sun's surface. They can erupt and release large amounts of charged particles into space. These can interact with Earth's magnetic field, causing auroras (northern and southern lights) and also interfering with satellite operations and power systems.
