The Sun produces a solar wind — a continuous flow of charged particles — that can affect us on Earth. It can, for example, disrupt communications, navigation systems, and satellites. Solar activity can also cause power outages, such as the extensive Canadian blackout in 1989. In this video segment adapted from NASA, learn about solar storms and their effects on Earth. This video is available in both English and Spanish audio, along with corresponding closed captions. <br />More news at Mary Greeley News <br />www.marygreeley.com
