The earth is about to face a solar storm in year 2013 which would severely damage the earth and technology in the space means satellites. Some experts are saying that the damages as a result of this solar storm will be as huge as twenty times then the damages occurred due to Hurricane Katrina in year 2005. The solar storm can eject high radiation and charged particles into space which could lead to heavy magnetic fields that will become hazardous for functioning of satellites and space stations. If what they predict should happen, then all the mobile phones, GPS, TV, Radio etc will not work at all, and this could lead to Earth Blackout in 2013. Solar storms occur when sunspots on our star erupt and spew out flumes of charged particles that can damage power systems. The sun’s activity typically follows an 11-year cycle, and it looks to be coming out of a slump and gearing up for an active period.
