Scientists Forecast: Sun can “ignite” the Earth – Russian newspaper

The sun can “ignite” the earth – a catastrophic scenario does not exclude the scientists who work with the telescope Kepler. Recently, they have found that are from us on a huge distance exoplanet Kepler-438b become uninhabitable due superoutburst the star around which the planet.

The power of the explosion 10-1000 times greater than solar flares. It should be noted that such superoutburst occur periodically in different star systems.

Now, astronomers have made a surprising discovery. With Kepler telescope, they found in the Milky Way galaxy double star KIC9655129, radiation which resembles a conventional solar. More precisely the physical properties sverhvspyshek on a distant star and ordinary solar flares have a lot in common. First of all, we are talking about multiple waves, whose properties correspond to the profile of conventional solar flares. According to scientists, this indirectly confirms the ability of the sun to throw superoutburst.

If the Sun superoutburst happen, it will have devastating consequences for life on Earth. However the authors acknowledge that the conditions necessary for the emergence of the Sun such superflare, highly unlikely.
