In 1872‚ a Solar Storm Hit the Earth Generating Auroras from the Tropics to the Poles

In 1872‚ a Solar Storm Hit the Earth Generating Auroras from the Tropics to the Poles

Imagine a solar storm generating auroral displays across the entire sky. No‚ we haven’t quite seen them that strong in the current solar cycle. But‚ back in February 1872‚ people around the world reported seeing brilliant northern and southern lights. The culprit? A medium-sized sunspot group that unleased a torrent of charged particles in a coronal mass ejection directed toward Earth. As with strong space weather storms today‚ the long-ago event not only sent aurorae dancing across most of Earth’s skies‚ but it disrupted technology. It affected telegraph communications on the submarine cable in the Indian Ocean between Bombay (Mumbai) and Aden for hours. Similar disturbances were reported on the landline between Cairo and Khartoum. That presaged the damage that such storms can do to today’s power grids and satellite communications. Nowadays scientists know quite a bit more about the solar activity that causes these storms. Back in those days‚ however‚ solar science was still in its infancy. We didn’t have globe-girdling‚ interconnected communications systems. And‚ then as now‚ extremely strong solar storms were relatively rare‚ but they could still do damage. Today‚ we are well aware of the threat to modern technologies. Strong solar storms can shut down power stations‚ stop communications‚ threaten the world’s financial and trade systems‚ and harm life. “The longer the power supply could be cut off‚ the more society‚ especially those living in urban areas‚ will struggle to cope‚” said Hisashi Hayakawa‚ the lead author of a group studying ancient solar storms. “Could we maintain our life without such infrastructure? Well‚ let us just say that it would be extremely challenging.” Studying an Ancient Solar Storm The 1872 solar event was named the Chapman-Silverman storm. Recently‚ an international team of 22 scientists‚ led by Hayakawa at Nagoya University in Japan‚ Edward Cliver at the US National Solar Observatory‚ and Frédéric Clette of the Royal Observatory of Belgium studied it in great detail. Their tools were historical records coupled with modern techniques to assess the Chapman-Silverman storm from its origins on the Sun to its impact on our planet. Sketches by Italian astronomer Angelo Secchi (Pontifical Gregorian University). The top shows the disk of the Sun‚ and the lower images show the 1872 sunspot group in more detail. Courtesy Osservatorio Astronomico di Roma. How do you go about finding records for a storm that far back? First‚ you look at sunspot records. People have long sketched sunspot groups and records go back quite far. The team scoured Belgian and Italian records of sunspots during the period. For terrestrial impacts‚ they used geomagnetic field measurements recorded in places as diverse as Bombay (Mumbai)‚ Tiflis (Tbilisi)‚ and Greenwich. Those gave them insight into the temporal evolution and intensity of the storm. Finally‚ they examined hundreds of accounts of visual aurorae caused by the storm‚ written in different languages. A Japanese drawing of the aurorae triggered by the 1872 solar event. Courtesy Shounji Temple. “Our findings confirm the Chapman-Silverman storm in February 1872 as one of the most extreme geomagnetic storms in recent history. Its size rivaled those of the Carrington storm in September 1859 and the NY Railroad storm in May 1921‚” Hayakawa said. “This means that we now know that the world has seen at least three geomagnetic superstorms in the last two centuries. Space weather events that could cause such a major impact represent a risk that cannot be discounted.” Other Solar Storm Events in History While very extreme solar storm events are rare‚ Hayakawa points out that there have been three superstorms like the 1872 event since the mid-19th century. The famous Carrington Storm of September 1859 (also referred to as the Carrington Event) was the most intense geomagnetic storm in recorded history. It lasted for more than a day and created global auroral displays seen nearly all around the world. It‚ like the later Chapman-Silverman storm also affected telegraph lines. Another very strong solar storm occurred in May 1921. Dubbed the New York Railroad Storm‚ it lasted for three days as the result of an extremely powerful coronal mass ejection from the Sun. Electrical currents stirred up in our atmosphere by the storm sparked several fires‚ including one close to New York’s Grand Central Terminal. That’s how the storm got its railway-related name. As with other strong geomagnetic storms‚ this one came accompanied by brilliant auroral displays. It also affected telegraph service and long-distance radio signals. Hayakawa suggested that our technology-heavy societies are quite lucky not to have experienced events like these. “We are fortunate to have missed such superstorms in the modern time‚” he said. “On the other hand‚ the occurrence of three such superstorms in six decades shows that the threat to modern society is real. Therefore‚ the preservation and analysis of historical records is important to assess‚ understand‚ and mitigate the impact of such events.” What to Look for In the Current Solar Cycle Today‚ we’re currently in solar cycle 25‚ ramping up to solar maximum within the next year. Several outbursts from the Sun have lit up our skies in the past few months. Those auroral displays showed up outside of the polar and northern/southern regions of the planet. And‚ as solar max nears‚ we can expect to see more activity from the Sun affecting Earth. Will we experience any extreme solar storms? There’s no way to know. All it takes is one very strong solar outburst from a sunspot group (and it doesn’t have to be a big cluster) aimed in our direction. Luckily‚ we do have the capability to track these outbursts as soon as they leave the Sun. Scientists can give early warning about these solar storms so that satellite operators‚ grid owners‚ and other technology concerns can take action to avoid the worst damage.

God Is Surrounding What’s Surrounding You – Encouragement for Today – December 7‚ 2023

December 7‚ 2023 God Is Surrounding What's Surrounding YouSHARON JAYNES  Lee en español "‘Don't be afraid‚' the prophet answered. ‘Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.'" 2 Kings 6:16 (NIV) My brother was 13 years old when I once saw a band of bullies on bikes encircle him like buzzards taunting their prey. He was outmanned and outnumbered. I thought it was the end. But then my dad pulled up in his Pontiac. He didn't even get out of the car but simply rolled down the window and gave a look that said‚ "I dare you." The bullies scattered like mice do when the lights come on. As we pray for ourselves and the ones we love‚ it's easy to think of the spiritual forces surrounding us as looming bullies: too strong to defeat‚ too shrewd to outsmart‚ or too slippery to take hold of. The prophet Elisha's servant felt the same way when he was encircled by enemies in 2 Kings 6. In 2 Kings‚ Elisha was really getting on the king of Aram's nerves. Every time the Arameans planned to attack the Israelites‚ Elisha prophetically told the Israelites where and when the assault would come‚ which led to Aram's defeat. Thinking there was a traitor among his men‚ the king "summoned his officers and demanded of them‚ ‘Tell me! Which of us is on the side of the king of Israel?' ‘None of us‚ my lord the king‚' said one of his officers‚ ‘but Elisha‚ the prophet who is in Israel‚ tells the king of Israel the very words you speak in your bedroom'" (2 Kings 6:11-12‚ NIV). So the enraged king sent an army to track down Elisha and his servant‚ surrounding the city they were in. I've felt like this before. Haven't you? Difficult circumstances press in from every side. My story looms large while I shrink small. I cry‚ This is too much for me! I can't do this anymore. I don't even want to go out of my house. Where are You‚ God? You promised You would never leave me or forsake me‚ but if You are here‚ why aren't You doing anything? I want out of this story! Honest. Raw. Somewhat embarrassing to admit. We wake up in the mornings and sense the enemies all around us - surrounded by problems we cannot solve and people we cannot control. But Elisha's faith was strong. He told his servant‚ "‘Don't be afraid ... Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.' And Elisha prayed‚ ‘Open his eyes‚ LORD‚ so that he may see.' Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes‚ and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha" (2 Kings 6:16-17‚ NIV). And there you have it: "Those who are with us are more than those who are with them." Elisha knew there was more power and strength in the unseen reality of God's heavenly host than the seen reality of the enemy's army. Notice that the passage doesn't say Elisha prayed that God would send an army. The warring angels on chariots of fire were already there. He simply prayed that the servant would be allowed to see them. Even though we may never see God's angels surrounding what's surrounding us‚ we can trust they are there. And most importantly‚ Jesus Himself is Immanuel‚ God with us‚ in every situation. Always. Lord of hosts‚ thank You for the angels that surround me and all of Your people today. Even though I can't see them with my eyes‚ I trust they are present. Thank You that angels are surrounding whatever is surrounding us. We have no need to fear. In Jesus' Name‚ Amen. OUR FAVORITE THINGS Never has there been a more important time in history to pray for our children!
