15、 Wednesday太阳风暴
Imagine a perfect day: The weather is good and everything seems fine. Then, suddenly, your cell phone loses its signal, the television has no programs, and you can't get online with your computer.
What has happened? These are just the types of problems a solar storm might cause. It may not sound as serious as other natural disasters, such as earthquakes. But today, a solar storm often puts our society in danger.
A solar storm is caused by solar flares: large explosions near the sun. It can give off lots of energy. The strong energy can stop the satellite systems that operate our computers, telecom networks and so on. These storms can even cause the power to go out for weeks or months.
In the past few months, scientists have recorded some of the strongest sun flares in years. The most recent one happened around Valentine's Day. It caused radio and satellite signals to go down in some northern cities in China.
"Solar flare activity is going to be much worse than what we've seen in the past. We're not talking about a few cities losing power. It could be half the country, maybe more, " Solar Storm Warning.com, a US website about space weather, warned.
Experts say that little can be done to predict such a storm. Governments around the world are trying to work together before the next storm, although they are not sure when that may happen.
