An intense period of activity on the surface of the Sun Monday sent at least 17 solar flares and a number of coronal mass ejections out into space, sending streams of charged particles toward the Earth.reported on Wednesday that a large “cannibal CME” — a fast-moving plasma of charged subatomic particles that sweep up smaller, slower-moving ejections emitted by the Sun during the same event — will strike earth after midnight UTC, or 8 p.m. ET.
The storm will also allow viewing of the aurora borealis from as far south as Chicago and New York City, and across almost the entirety of Canada, for the rest of the week. The most severe solar storm in recorded history was the 1859 Carrington event, which allowed observation of the aurora from nearly everywhere on earth.
