Duration of the solar period is every 11-12 years. At the end of each period there is a maximum of solar activity. Russian biophysicist Alexander Chizhevsky first noticed connection of solar activity and the course of history.
1905 - a maximum of solar activity in 1917 - a maximum of solar activity, 1928-29, too, with a maximum activity in 1991 - a maximum of solar activity and, finally, in 2002, which particularly affected us - too high solar activity.
Today the sun is entering a new active phase. Explosions go almost every minute. Experts talk about the true cosmic tsunami! It is the anomalous magnetic storms, but the peak of solar activity will occur in 2012 and 2013.
"Magnetic storm could trigger an earthquake. Because during magnetic storms in Earth is pumped much electromagnetic energy. There are electric currents that affect the strength of rocks. They affect the water in the ground, causing it to move "- explains the Corresponding Member of RAS, Gennady Sobolev.
Scientists think that the current activity of the sun - just the beginning. It's time to think about maintaining the balance of nature. Projects done. For example, a special giant sail in geostationary orbit, which would have covered the earth from solar flares, or satellites that warn of impending cataclysm. According to the project "Arctic" presented Roscosmos, the spacecraft from a height of 40,000 kilometers will be watching the North Pole - the kitchen weather as meteorologists call the Arctic.
In 2013, the expected solar storm, which can lead to partial or complete blackouts across the globe. The threat of technological infrastructure must be so large that the British Minister of Defence of Lyme Fox brought an urgent press conference.
British scientists have warned that there will be a violent storm on the sun, which usually happens once a century. The storm, which reached its peak in late 2012 - early 2013.
NASA previously prepared message in which they explain that such a large solar flare magnetic energy, wreak havoc in most parts of the earth. The flash can cause geomagnetic storms on Earth, who will turn off the electricity for several hours, days or months.
In addition to the power outage will not fly airplanes, food stocks will fall, and for many months will not have access to the Internet.
Astrophysicist confirms that such solar phenomena are very serious. "It is impossible to defend against such a large solar flares. Electrical networks and satellites will be most vulnerable, "- said Roed Odegaard.
Roed Odegaard remembered that the last time a solar storm occurred in 2003 when three satellites are out of order, there were power outages in three Swedish cities, and also was affected by air traffic. The outbreak in 2013, is expected to be stronger than in 2003.
The consequences of a sudden solar storm is comparable to a nuclear war or the fall of a giant asteroid on the Earth.
Although the probability of a solar storm, scientists estimate is low, such disasters have occurred in the past. The most powerful solar storms on record occurred in 1859 and became known as the "Event Carrington" - after the British astronomer Richard Carrington. Due to strong solar flares were observed throughout the world bright auroras in the U.S. and Europe were marked by widespread failures in the Telegraph.
The beginning of the end of the scientists promise very beautiful. At the end of 2012 over the whole earth will flash bright and colorful flashes of the aurora borealis, which previously only admired the people of the polar regions. It will be seen even in the daytime. Then break out, "fireworks" of electrical discharges and sparks - like a Hollywood thriller. Only much worse.
