¡Café solar! Este lunes día de San Valentín, nuestro Astro Rey inició un período de tormentas solares que arrojan una serie de partículas al sistema solar que afectan el normal funcionamiento de los satélites de comunicaciones.
Hasta ahora el sitio mas afectado ha sido China y una parte de Asía.
Esta tormenta solar pudiera afectar en algún grado a nuestras comunicaciones, de acuerdo a la actividad solar que se presente y que lado del planeta la reciba.
Cito a continuación a la NASA:
UPDATE: The particle cloud produced by the Valentines Day event appears to be rather weak and is not expected to produce any strong effects at Earth other than perhaps some beautiful aurora in the high northern and southern latitudes on Feb. 17.

The video clip (above) is of the large X2 flare seen by Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) in extreme ultraviolet light on February 15, 2011, has been enlarged and superimposed on a video of SOHO’s C2 coronagraph for the same period. This was the largest solar flare since December 5, 2006. The coronagraph images show the faint edge of a “halo” CME as it raced away from the Sun and began heading towards Earth. The video covers about 11 hours.
