"Rising Solar Storms: Debunking the 'Internet Apocalypse' Panic"

Concerns about an "internet apocalypse" caused by solar storms damaging undersea internet cables have been circulating on social media, fueled by misinformation and unfounded claims. NASA has not issued any warnings about an imminent internet outage, and there is no evidence to support the viral rumors. While major solar storms can have effects on electric grids and communication systems, more studies are needed to make strong statements about their strength. Scientists have not predicted a deadly solar storm in 2025, and forecasting the severity of damage caused by solar storms is complex. A research team has developed an AI model to generate forecasts of solar storms, providing advance warning for necessary precautions. Additionally, claims that NASA's Parker Solar Probe mission is related to a conspiracy theory called "The Great Reset" are false.
