[Regnum] One of the largest coronal holes on the Sun is turning towards the Earth, which could lead to a powerful magnetic storm on February 10. This was reported by the solar astronomy laboratory of the Space Research Institute and the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IKI and ISTP RAS).

“The speed of plasma in the vicinity of our planet may increase to 600-700 km/s, compared to the current 350-400 km/s,” says a publication on the laboratory’s website.

According to scientists, the Earth will be under the influence of a coronary hole for the entire next week. However, they noted that a magnetic storm may not begin.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on February 6, the solar astronomy laboratory of the IKI and ISFZ RAS reported a powerful flare on the Sun. The center of the flare was in the area of ​​maximum influence on the Earth, which makes the probability of these processes influencing the planet high.

On January 23, astronomers captured a video of a black jet streaming from the surface of the Sun. This rare phenomenon is caused by the large mass of neutral hydrogen gas. It almost completely absorbs short-wavelength radiation falling on it from behind, making it appear black.
