In September 1994, were detected significant disturbances in Earth's magnetic field, with major changes as the orientation of migratory birds and cetaceans and even the operation of aviation.
In 1996, the Soho spacecraft discovers that the sun has no more, but only a magnetic field homogenized. In 1997 took place in the sun violent magnetic storms in 1998 and NASA has detected the emission of a powerful stream energy coming from the galactic center wave nobody could explain.
On August 15, 1999 a mysterious explosion occurred from space and because of that some stars were eclipsed by the hour. The radiation of radio waves, gamma rays and X-ray intensity multiplied by 120%. Astronomers Richard Berendzen and Bob Hjellming, Radio Astronomical Observatory of New Mexico (EE UU), qualified this phenomenon as a mystery "worthy of a thorough investigation."
On January 20, 2005, an amazing solar storm reached the Earth with its maximum radiation 15 minutes after the explosions. It usually takes 2 hours to get here. According to Richard Mewaldt of the California Institute of Technology, was the bloodiest and most mysterious of the last 50 years.
Scientists believed that the storm formed in the solar corona by shock waves associated with eruptions of plasma. However, in this case seems to have originated inside the strange star-King, the second said Professor Robert Lin of the University of California.
Astronomers were stunned. Professor Lin - principal researcher Reuven Ramaty satellite Solar Spectroscopic Imager High Energy (RHESSI) - expressed his conclusion with a very simple sentence: "That means we do not really know how the Sun works."
summarize: The unusual phenomenon of January 20, 2005 ended with the models of our science studies on the subject.
And because the Sun has produced an anomalous activity is so intense right now? The peak of activity of our star - in its main cycle of 11 years - happened in 2000. In 2004, solar physicists observed a total absence of spots, where it always announces the proximity of some activity on the Sun This minimal activity should occur only in 2006 (as happened), some years before the maximum in 2010 or 2012.
