Solar Storms

And Close Planets

Recently the sun erupted with one of the largest solar storms in recent history. Tonight the resident space expert at the Maryland Science Center joins us to explain solar flares and how they affect us here on Earth. We'll also talk about the close approach of the planets Venus and Jupiter and how best to see these planets in the western sky.
