Could a solar flare destroy the earth?

No, a solar flare cannot destroy the Earth. While solar flares can have significant impacts on our technology and infrastructure, they do not have the capability to destroy the planet. Earth's atmosphere and magnetic field provide natural protection from the harmful effects of solar flares.


How does solar Flare affect earth?

It effects electricity


How does a sun flare effect earth and other planets?

solar flare... sends out a blast of magnetic field, it has been known to cause power outages on the planet of Earth


Are flare guns considered a firearm?

In general, no. A flare gun, properly called a flare projector, is capable of launching only a light weight, low velocity projectile, and is not suitable for use as a weapon. If an attempt were to be made to fire a standard firearm cartridge from a flare projector, it will likely destroy the projector, with a strong possibility of injury to the shooter.


A solar flare can cause disruptions to or on earth?

Radio communications


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.


What wold a solar flare do if it reached earth?

It would wipe out all electricity. a solar flare occurs every 11 years.


Is a solar flare the same thing as a sun flare?

Yes, a solar flare and a sun flare are the same thing. They refer to sudden releases of energy in the sun's atmosphere that can cause disturbances on Earth.


Would you be injured by a solar flare if you were in space near the earth?

If you were outside the Earth's protective layer, the answer is yes.


Can a solar flare stop the Earth's rotation?

No, a solar flare cannot stop the Earth's rotation. Solar flares are bursts of energy and particles from the Sun and do not have the capability to alter the rotation of our planet. Earth's rotation is influenced by gravitational forces, primarily from the Sun and Moon.


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 you use a Flare gun to start a fire?

yes, but it is dangerous. It's been done before. The biggest problem is the flare exiting your pile of wood. Firing a flare gun into a tinder nest almost always results in it being scattered. Firing a flare gun towards the ground results in the flare landing in an unpredictable place within 100 yards.
