Strong Solar Flares Threaten Satellites, ISRO Warns

The Sun is acting up again, sending out a series of strong solar flares. These powerful bursts of energy have led to warnings from space agencies worldwide, including India’s ISRO, which is carefully monitoring the situation. There is a risk of strong radio blackouts.

When solar storms are directed towards the Earth, they can damage satellites, disturb television signals, affect radar systems, and even disrupt power grids.

ISRO officials said that more than 50 active Indian satellites are being closely watched. The heightened solar activity could affect communication, navigation, and the functioning of satellite payloads.

Scientists continue to track the Sun’s activity to minimize potential damage and keep satellite systems safe.
