Solar storms are massive explosions on the surface of the Sun that release large amounts of energy and charged particles, which can affect Earth. They can disrupt communications and satellites, cause power outages, and pose a danger to astronauts and airplanes. Although the atmosphere protects us from radiation, their effects on modern technology require constant monitoring and preventive measures, and through my research I began to propose questions.
Questions:
- Do solar storms affect planet Earth and human life?
- Is there a relationship between solar storms and climate change?
Hypothesis:
1- Solar storms affect planet Earth and human life.
2- There is a relationship between solar storms and climate change.
Procedures:
I used the descriptive survey method and created a questionnaire, distributed it to a random sample, and then analyzed the results.
Conclusions:
The relationship between solar storms and planet Earth is directly proportional in effect, meaning that the more intense the solar storms, the greater their negative impact on Earth and its effect on the climate.
