Did you know the Sun is very powerful? Sometimes it sends a big burst of energy into space. Scientists call this a solar storm! The energy travels very fast to Earth. It is like a super space wind!
Solar storms can cause problems on Earth. They can hurt our power systems. Our phones and internet can stop working! But there is good news too. Scientists watch the Sun every day to keep us safe.
Solar storms also make something beautiful! They create amazing lights in the sky. These lights are called the northern lights. The lights can be green, pink, and purple. They look like magic curtains dancing at night!
