Two rare explosions on the Sun are creating a storm heading towards Earth. Scientists are investigating the effects of this event.

As a result of these explosions, radioactive particles will reach Earth on April 16. This may lead to the observation of auroras, known as northern lights, due to the interaction with the planet's magnetic field.

However, these solar storms can disrupt GPS signals and cause communication issues. NOAA has indicated that this storm may reach G2 category.

The Sun is approaching the peak of its 11-year cycle, indicating that more explosions and solar storms may occur. This situation could also pose risks for astronauts in space.
