Could a solar flare destroy the earth?
It could destroy the earth, if it was a super flare. The next solar flare is in 2011 or 2012, but it wont harm the earth. It will mess up radios tough.
Can a solar flare harm you physically?
no because a solar flare cant actually hit the earth the earths magnetosphere protects it there for the flare will not hurt you physically
Can a solar blast destroy earth?
a giant solar flare could technically destroy earth, but a solar flare could not get that large. however, theoretically, before our sun "dies," it will expand and destroy the earth.
What happens when a solar flare hits earth?
The last answer 'the earth is goin to explode because dats something coming from the sun fast' is absolutely rubbish! The solar flare is harmless to Earth because Earth has its own magnetic field so that the solar flare will do very little harm to Earth. After all, the Earth didn't explode on 24/1/2012, when the flare pass earth. The solar flare passing Earth's atmosphere at the two poles (where the magnetic field is close to ground) at high speed creates polar light. It also cause some disturbance to electrical transmission through space and aviation. Astronauts out of Earth's magnetic field, however, have to take measures to prevent direct exposure to the flare. But even there isn't a magnetic field for Earth, like Mars, matter will only evaporate into space, the planet will not explode.
Will the Earth burn if there were a solar flare?
No. Solar flares are a common occurrence. Earth's magnetic field protects us from the worst of it. The greatest danger is that an especially powerful solar flare could knock out satellites and damage electrical systems.

Can a solar flare stop the Earth's rotation?
No. Solar flares do not affect Earth's rotation.

What happens to people after a solar flare?
Very little happens to people after a solar flare. Solar flares are a regular occurrence. The charged particles they emit can disrupt radio signals and also increase the auroras.
How does solar Flare affect earth?
It effects electricity
What wold a solar flare do if it reached earth?
It would wipe out all electricity. a solar flare occurs every 11 years.

A solar flare can cause disruptions to or on earth?
Radio communications
What happens if a solar flare is aimed at the earth?
It can mess with the earths electronics or can create aurora borealis. It could also destroy all life on earth... Just depends on the size

Describe the difference between a solar flare and a solar prominence which affects us and how?
The difference between a solar flare and a solar prominence is that a solar flare emits charged partials, which travel to the Earth. Solar prominence are large sheets that burst out from the Sun that last for days or even weeks and can grow up to 400000km high. A solar flare affects us by emitting charged partials to the Earth. When the partials hit the Earth the Earth's magnetic field forces them to the North and South poles. As this happens it produces an electrical effect in the Earth's atmosphere that interferes with transmission of radio waves. This is why many communities in the far North lose radio communication for many days at a time.It took my a very long time to figure this out. if you are doing this for a science isu in grade 9 them it is on page 453 on the bottom left of the sun diagram.
