  1. Coronal Mass Ejections North Pocono Middle School NASA Endeavour Team

  2. Coronal Mass Ejections • Coronal Mass Ejections, also known as CME’s are explosions in the suns corona that shoot out solar particles www.plasmaresources.com

  3. Coronal Mass Ejections • Material is thrown out into the solar wind • These energetic particles can damage satellites or even cause injury to astronauts http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/160614main_cme_what.jpg

  4. Coronal Mass Ejections • CME’s can be dangerous if they hit the earth • The radiation from the CME can affect the earth’s outer layer • The radiation from the Coronal Mass Ejections hits the earth just one minute after it occurs http://cohesion.rice.edu/NaturalSciences/Physics/emplibrary/C2%20Blow%20Left%20Combo%2002.jpg
