The number of sunspots is an indication of the intensity of violent eruptions from the surface of the sun. A spike in activity occurs in cycles of approximately 11 years. 2013 is predicted to be a big year for these solar events. Known as coronal mass ejections, they spew out plasma and magnetic fields into space. It washes over planets energizing the  Earth’s magnetic field, producing charged particles and phenomena such as the northern lights. Currents can be induced in electrical circuits. Problems can occur with satellites. In extreme cases, they can even be destroyed.  There could be interruptions to GPS and aircraft operations. It is estimated $2 trillion of the world’s economy is based on satellite transactions.  Luckily, astronomers can see these eruptions lift from the sun’s surface, and their speed can be measured.  Typically they take 1-3 days to get to the Earth. So warnings can be issued.
