Solar eruptions are happening and according to NASA, they could cause some problems on Earth. 

NASA says the sun has been very active, which is what could cause problems on Earth. The solar eruptions could impact GPS signals, power grids, satellite electronics and radio communication. 

Scientists from NASA have said that more solar activity, flares and eruptions are coming and that the solar cycle is not yet at its peak, but has already surpassed expectations.
