If a CME collides with the Earth, it can excite a geomagnetic storm. Large geomagnetic storms have, among other things, caused electrical power outages and damaged communications satellites. The energetic particles driven along by CMEs can be damaging to both electronic equipment and astronauts or passengers in high-flying aircraft. Solar flares, on the other hand, directly affect the ionosphere and radio communications at the Earth, and also release energetic particles into space.
X-ray and ultraviolet light from the flare changed the structure of the Earth's electrically charged upper atmosphere ionosphere. This affected radio communication frequencies that either pass through the ionosphere to satellites or are reflected by it to traverse the globe. Image of the Day Heat.
