Solar Storms and Unique Aurora Borealis Expected as CME Approaches Earth.

TL;DR Summary
The solar peak, which is expected to occur in late 2023 or early 2024, has already begun, according to scientists. This peak will bring about a "termination event," which occurs when an 11-year solar cycle ends abruptly, changing the star's polarity, and begins again with greater intensity. The event could cause geomagnetic storms and aurora borealis, which could be visible at lower latitudes. While the general public need not be concerned, experts warn that the electricity grid and satellites could be damaged by a solar event, and we need to analyze our vulnerabilities.
