“CME Cannibals” at the gates of Earth
Scenario launched on Earth with “CME Cannibal” that modeling from meteorology Clear the space for the hours following the observed explosions. CME cannibal phenomenon occurs when two or even three waves Solar particles collide and collide to form only one stronger. Newer than the sun, faster, has absorbed the previous storm, softer.
