On April 5, 2010, the sun spewed a two million-mile-per-hour stream of
charged particles toward the invisible magnetic fields surrounding
Earth, known as the magnetosphere. As the particles interacted with the
magnetic fields, the incoming stream of energy caused stormy conditions
near Earth. Some scientists believe that it was this solar storm that
interfered with commands to a communications satellite, Galaxy-15, which
subsequently foundered and drifted, taking almost a year to return to
its station.
