Every once in awhile the sun belches.
Well, the outer layer does.
The result is a sunspot cluster. The geomagnetic storm 10 times the size of earth will hit tomorrow.
It is possible that satellites and power grids could be disrupted.

Fun isn’t it?
I’ve got a necklace with the hyroglyph for alice on from when I visited Egypt (among other places) on a school trip about 12 years ago… I’d completely forgotten about it til I saw your this. Thank you!
I have one from a field trip to the Indianapolis Children’s Museum (way back in 4th grade) that has Missy on a princess sarcophagus. It’s filed away in the attic, actually.
Sunspots as a belch of the sun–gotta tell my science teacher dad that one. He’ll love it.
Absolutely fascinating!!!! Wow! I love my name in Hieroglyphics. It’s an eye, three feathers, a sun, and inward turning square, an extended arm, another eye, and an open hand. Interesting. You could do ALOT symbolically/metaphorically with that!
Btw, solar storms are fascinating as well. Good blog, Bene!
