Solar Activity & Effects on Earth presented by Michelle Nichols, Director of Public Observing Adler Planetarium
PDH for this event - please bring to the event
AbstractSolar Activity & Effects on EarthAdler PlanetariumIn 2024 and 2025, our Sun reaches its cyclical peak of activity: solar maximum. While one visible effect of this activity is an increased number of cooler regions on the Sun, called sunspots, and beautiful atmospheric aurorae, the effects of various solar phenomena can spread out into the Solar System, potentially affecting everything from satellite operations,communications networks, energy transmission, and more. In this presentation suitable for a non-scientist, we will discuss the various types of solar phenomena - sunspots, flares, coronal mass ejections, solar wind - and the effects we can experience both indirectly and directly here on Earth.
