In October–November 2003, Earth was rocked by one of the most intense space weather events in modern history—the Halloween Solar Storms. Triggered by massive X-class solar flares and Earth-directed coronal mass ejections (CMEs), these storms caused power grid failures, satellite malfunctions, aviation disruptions, and breathtaking auroras around the globe.🔥 What caused the Halloween Storms?
🛰️ How did they impact satellites, GPS, and communications?
⚠️ Could it happen again—and are we ready?In this video, we break down:

• The science behind solar flares and geomagnetic storms
• Real-world effects from the 2003 event
• Lessons learned and future risks
