The team of international astrophysics has made a breakthrough: The blinking strong stars can completely change the weather on the planet in just a few days. The study was published in scientific publications of astronomy magazine (Taj).
Scientists from Jewish University (Israel), NASA (USA) and Oxford (UK) have simulated the effects of solar outbreaks on the planet Trappist-1e.
The results of the scientific community – the upper classes of the atmosphere are quickly cooled, while the lower layers are heated and the wind on the night accelerates to 140 km/h.
It seems like a shock in the atmosphere. The star not only illuminates the planet, but also conducts the weather, Dr. Assaf Hokhman explained, the leader of the research.
Discover important to the Earth. Although artificial factors are still the main climate, solar activity can cause abnormalities in the short -term area, especially in meters.
For astronomers, research is a turning point. Now, when evaluating the residence of the planet, it is necessary to take into account not only the distance with the star, but also its activity.
