Chemicals fired from satellites at the edge of the Earth’s magnetic field can act as “airbags” to shield the planet from devastating solar flares, a new study suggests. Solar flares are streams of high-energy particles ejected from the Sun that can disrupt radio communications and fry satellite electronics. Fluctuations in the Earth’s magnetic field caused by solar storms can mess with GPS signals and even spark current surges that can overload power grids. Although scientists are getting better at predicting the release of destructive streams of energy from the Sun, there is little we can do to protect ourselves from them.The proposed system, which the team have in fact named “Storm Wall”, would use six spacecraft launched into a geosynchronous orbit to sync their rotation with the Earth’s. What is your take on the suggestion ?
