WARNING: Hole opens up on Sun blasting Earth with SOLAR WINDS
A HUGE hole has opened up on the surface of the sun, leaving the Earth vulnerable to solar winds which could cause making disruption to technology.
A coronal hole has emerged on the surface of the sun, according to Nasa, which is blasting solar winds in the direction of the Earth.
When magnetic field lines travel from the interior of the sun to its surface, they usually remain inside our star.
However, when coronal holes appear, which happens sporadically, the magnetic field lines can stretch out into space in the form of solar winds.
NASA posted a video on Instagram stating that an “elongated coronal hole rotated across the surface of the sun this past week so that it is now streaming solar wind towards Earth”.
