One of the largest coronal holes of the year appeared on the Sun - about a million kilometers in diameter, IKI RAS reported. On Saturday night the Earth will fall into the flow of the solar wind from it, and this will last for at least five days. Scientists still do not know the exact properties of plasma. The result can be different - from several days of magnetic storms to episodic disturbances.
