Space tsunamis put half the US in line for massive blackouts
We all love a good cosmic light show, but the sun is constantly hurling intense streams of solar energy and particles our way. The good thing, however, is that our planet is protected by a magnetic forcefield known as the magnetosphere. But as a new study reveals, this cosmic sunscreen isn’t an impenetrable fortress, making it vulnerable to powerful magnetic storms that could cause devastating power outages. Scientists are just now figuring out …
