During which years do you think electrical disturbances on earth were most common?

A large solar storm occurred in 1859, and this caused electrical disturbances to the satellites. There are seasons and patterns to the solar storms, and the Sun's activity is picking up again.

What are seismic disturbances?
what are some examples of seismic disturbances
Is a hurricane tectonic?
No. Hurricanes are caused by atmospheric disturbances and warm ocean water. Plate tectonics has to do with the movement of the Earth's crust.
What are some possible disturbances that could cause a place on Earth to have to start over?
a natural disaster like a tsunami or tornado. Volcano etc.
Can sunspots cause auroras and disrupt satellite transmissions?
They interfere with all types of RF (radio / TV) transmission / reception.
How does a solar storm and solar flare affect earth?
Magnetic Storms have a severe affect on our technological and electrical infrastructure, both in space and on the ground. Usually Earth's magnetic field, generated by the dynamo under earth's lithosphere, protects us from magnetic disturbances, but severe magnetic storms have in the past knocked out power grids in the entire province of Quebec. Magnetic Storms would have a severe effect, and would likely, en masse, shut down large amounts of current human grids and technological infrastructure, as concluded by the National Academy of Sciences.

What is the relationship between sunspots and electrical disturbances?
Sunspots are regions of high physical and magnetic turbulence on the Sun. They increase and decrease in number during an 11-year solar sunspot cycle, but variations within the cycle mean it isn't always just a smooth up and down graph. From the sunspots large amounts of radiation and matter can be thrown around and some of the radiation can cause electrical and magnetic disturbances in the upper atmosphere or even on the Earth itself. During high sunspot activity the general level of solar surface and coronal activity is also high, with more flares and prominences which also areas of great disturbances. Flares are huge disturbances on the Sun which can throw out massive amounts of radiation and mass in what are known as CME's, or Coronal Mass Ejections, and they can have a big effect on Earth. Large disturbances on Earth from solar storms are called geomagnetic storms can knock out entire electrical networks as has happened in Canada and the northern states of the USA before. For the last two years the Sun has been unusually quiet, meaning very few sunspots have been seen and therefore fewer magnetic disturbances have happened, including the disappearance of the Northern Lights for almost the entire period but there are a few sunspots visible now and an occasional aurora has been seen since last December.
What are sudden disturbances in earth's magnetic field called?
Geomagnetic storms!
What triggers seismic waves?
Disturbances within the earth crust, such as plate movements.
What are rock layers disturbances?
rock layers disturbed bo forces within the Earth
What are crustal disturbances on the moon?
They are called "moonquakes" but have different causes than the quakes on Earth.
Why is a metal wire connected from an aircraft to the earth during refuelling?
This grounds the aircraft and protects it from any electrical disparity.
What is electrical earth leg?
It is the ground line of the system or electrical leg that is going to the earth.
What is the connection between any electrical circuit and the earth is called?
Electrical circuits are grounded to the earth.
Does the moon orbits or circles the sun?
The Moon orbits the Sun. The gravitation of the Earth will provide slight disturbances to the Moon's orbit around the Sun, but mainly, the Moon moves around the Sun.The Moon orbits the Sun.

When did Apollo 1 leave earth?
It never left. The spacecraft had an electrical fire during testing, killing the three astronauts aboard.
