How can solar flares disrupt radio and satellite communications and power grids?
Charged particles from the sun can disrupt the Earth's magnetic field. This causes electromagnetic induction, producing abnormal currents in power grids, possibly destroying electronic equipment. Radio communications rely on the ionosphere which reflects radiowaves. Particles can enter the ionosphere and disrupt these radio communications.
