AI Telescopes Capturing Real-Time Solar Flare Activity to Prevent Grid Blackouts
In an era where our dependence on electricity is at an all-time high, the need to safeguard our power grids from natural phenomena has become critical. Solar flares, which are intense bursts of radiation from the sun, can have disastrous effects on Earth’s magnetic field and power systems. Thankfully, advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and telescope technology are opening up new frontiers in the way we monitor solar activity. This article delves into how AI telescopes are capturing real-time solar flare activity and their potential to prevent grid blackouts.
