A powerful geomagnetic solar storm is expected to strike Earth on April 14. Space experts have warned that it could cause power, GPS and radio blackouts. A solar geomagnetic storm basically means that the Sun is about to discharge significant amounts of Coronal Mass Ejection with high-intensity energy toward the Earth, and some of the other planets.
The Centre of Excellence in Space Sciences India has warned that storm could hit Earth with a speed of nearly 20,69,834 kilometers per hour.
