Changes in the Sun’s Activity Could Threaten Earth’s Electronics by 2050:

eHam.net News — Shifts in solar activity could make the sun a greater threat to electronic devices by midcentury, according to research coming out of the British University of Reading’s Meteorology department. In addition to affecting Earth’s natural protection from solar flares, the changes in the sun’s activity mean England will likely no longer experience the Northern Lights, one of the most remarkable phenomena in the world. Solar minimums, periods of lesser solar activity, are normal, typically occurring once every eleven years. Solar activity is generally measured in sunspots, which decrease during the minimum and rise during the solar maximum.
