The currently observed magnetic storm G4 could affect the operation of complex electronics on Earth, as well as the operation of satellites orbiting the planet. In this respect informs The publication “Izvestia”, with reference to the words of Vladimir Pinaev, Associate Professor of the Department of Environmental Safety and Product Quality Management, Institute of Ecology, Institute of People’s Friendship of Russia, Candidate of Economic Sciences.
According to Pinaev, some degree of perturbation always occurs in the Earth’s magnetic field. But the current magnetic float is “too strong”. For him, the more powerful the technique in its essence, the more complex it will respond to observed perturbations.
“It can also be assumed that the effect may be higher with increasing altitude above the Earth – for example, a stronger effect will be exerted on satellites orbiting the Earth,” Pinaev said. Said.
At the same time, the expert did not specify exactly how the effect of the magnetic storm, which he recorded, could affect the operation of the equipment.
Formerly socialbites.ca Wrote that changes in the magnetic field caused by a magnetic storm will lead to the appearance of induced currents in electrically conductive systems. As a result, there may be malfunctions in the operation of the power supply and communication.
