  • September 24 Doomsday Theory Goes Viral on TikTok After German Politician’s Ominous Statement, Know About Solar Flare ‘Expected’ To Destroy Earth

    Yet another doomsday conspiracy theory has started making rounds on social media. According to the people of TikTok, Telegram, Facebook, and Twitter, there will be a wide variety of different calamities on Saturday, 24 September.

    Wild theories about the Doomsday started making rounds after Friedrich Metz, a member of the German Parliament gave a speech, which was posted on Twitter. Metz said everyone will remember where they were on September 24 but he misspoke and actually meant to say February 24 when the Russia invasion of Ukraine began. Asteroid Day 2022: Five Times When Asteroids ALMOST Hit the Earth Bringing ‘Doomsday’

    Soon after, Merz’ “September 24” comment was clipped and spread around German Telegram channels. Soon the clip gained traction spread like wild fire. Many on social media started predicting a solar flare or a solar storm, which will be the ultimate cause of the end of humanity. Elon Musk Hints at Coming ‘Doomsday on Earth’ With ‘Oh God, the Economy’ Comment? Latest Tweet by SpaceX CEO Sparks Meme-Fest and Reactions

    People on TikTok started saying that a huge solar flare will hit Earth on September 24 2022.

    What is a Solar Flare:

    NASA says solar flare is a localised eruption of electromagnetic radiation in the Sun’s atmosphere. Flares occur in active regions and are often, but not always, accompanied by coronal mass ejections, solar particle events, and other solar phenomena. Solar flares are bright areas on the sun’s surface, but can also be felt on Earth, often causing radio and magnetic disturbances, according to NASA. Though they cannot actually harm humans as no harmful radiation from a solar flare can directly reach the Earth.

    So the online claims about a doomsday on Sept. 24 does not have any factual evidence to back it up and just another silly internet conspiracy. Most of the people part of this social media frenzy are just doing it because it’s the latest viral meme.

  • Solar Storm Warning Sparks Discussion on Twitter with Netizens Sharing Concerns and Science Behind The Snake-Like Solar Flare That is Likely to Hit Earth! (View Tweets)

    Recently, Dr Tamitha Skov, a space weather expert, predicted a solar storm that would hit the Earth on Tuesday, July 19. The physicist posted on social media about the flare that looked like a filament in the shape of a snake. The massive solar storm has the power to disrupt radio signals and severe geomagnetic effects on the planet. Reportedly, the solar flare can also cause disruptions to the widespread radio and GPS signal on the night of July 19. These geomagnetic storms can cause voltage fluctuations and may even lead to impaired appliances and electrical wiring. Some interested Twittrati shared their opinions and discussed the phenomenon. Solar Storm To Hit Earth on THIS Date; Check Timings, Effects and Other Details Inside.

  • Sun Fires Significant Solar Flare, Can Disrupt Earth’s GPS Signals: NASA

    Washington, October 29: NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory has captured “significant solar flare” erupting from the Sun, which can likely result in disruptions in GPS signals on Earth as well as supercharge Earth’s northern lights. The Sun on Thursday emitted an X1-class flare, the most intense so far at 11.35 a.m., NASA said in a statement on Friday. “POW! The sun just served up a powerful flare,” the US space agency said in a tweet.

    The X1-class flare caused a temporary, yet strong radio blackout across the sunlit side of Earth centered on South America, according to the US Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC), which tracks space weather events. The flare originated from a sunspot called AR2887 currently positioned in the center of the sun and facing the Earth, based on its location, Spaceweather.com reported. NASA said that the X1-flare is also likely to hit Earth’s magnetic field on Saturday. Solar flares are powerful bursts of radiation. While the harmful radiation from a flare cannot pass through Earth’s atmosphere to physically affect humans on the ground, however, when intense enough, they can disturb the atmosphere in the layer where GPS and communications signals travel. It can also supercharge Earth’s northern lights (auroras).  NASA To Halt Mars Missions Communication for Next Few Weeks As Earth and Red Planet on Opposite Sides of the Sun.

    Further, NASA explained that the X-class denotes the most intense flares, while the number provides more information about its strength. An X2 is twice as intense as an X1, an X3 is three times as intense, etc. Flares that are classified X10 or stronger are considered unusually intense. When these intense flares are aimed directly at Earth, it can also be accompanied by a massive eruption of solar particles, called a coronal mass ejection. The impulsive X1-class flare on Thursday also “appeared to have coronal mass ejection related signatures,” the SWPC said. According to SpaceWeather.com, it “created a massive tsunami of plasma that rippled across the entire solar disk: The plasma wave was about 100,000 km tall and moved through the sun’s atmosphere faster than 1.6 million mph”. NOAA forecasters estimate that it is expected to reach Earth with a “60 percent chance of M-class flares and a 25 percent chance of another X-flare in the next 24 hours”. M-class flares are medium-sized; they can cause brief radio blackouts that affect Earth’s polar regions, while C-class flares are small with few noticeable consequences here on Earth.
