The article discusses the impact of severe solar storms on civil aviation, particularly the increase in radiation levels and the heightened risk of electronic system disruptions on aircraft. A recent study revealed that strong solar storms, such as the November 2025 event which caused radiation levels to rise tenfold at an altitude of 40,000 feet, can lead to electronic malfunctions amounting to up to 60 errors per hour per gigabyte of memory. Although these current storms have not posed immediate health risks to passengers, repeated larger events—like the one in 1956 that increased radiation by more than 100 times—pose greater dangers. Additionally, high-energy particles produced by solar activity can cause temporary electronic disturbances, especially on flights near polar regions, which are more susceptible to the effects of solar storms. Researchers emphasize the importance of developing space weather monitoring systems and early warning alerts to better assess risks and ensure flight safety.
