Do you have any thoughts on what doomsday will look like? Will walls of water be chasing you down? Will the thunder burn your ears out? Will there be lava rain?
I don't know! I never really thought about it. But to be honest, most of my imagination comes from the movies I have seen, so let's blame them for a change. If you have gotten your hopes high that this is one of the many doomsday stories you read on the internet. Sorry to disappoint you, it's not.

A solar system is expected to hit Earth on Sunday (6th May 2018) and it might result in a partial blackout. According to space scientists, a coronal hole has reportedly been opened up in the Sun which is releasing large amounts of cosmic particles.
In a statement published on Space Weather website, it says - ¡°Cutting across half of the solar disk, a wide hole in the sun's atmosphere is turning toward Earth and spewing a stream of solar wind toward our planet. This extreme ultraviolet image from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory shows the gaseous canyon¡±.

In fact, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was quoted by express.co.uk which said that the storm might lead to the appearance of northern and southern lights too. This expected solar storm is being called as G-1 or ¡®minor¡¯.
They have warned people living on high latitude, especially in the southern hemisphere where visibility is a challenge. They fear that the consequence of this storm can be far more serious than it is being seen or suspected. That said, this storm may seriously affect the satellite-based technology of our planet and cause a long blackout.
