Visualization of scientific numerical model reveals a turbulent front generated by a solar wind interacting with Earth s magnetic field during a powerful solar storm. Large disturbances, including high velocity jets, can penetrate deep inside the Earth s magneto-sphere and result in space weather effects such as loss of communications satellites and wide spread blackouts.
