Did A Hole In The Earth’s Rapidly Weakening Magnetic Field Cause The Electrical Blackout In Spain And Portugal?
Without the Earth’s magnetic field, our way of life could not exist. In fact, without it life on our planet could not exist at all. The magnetosphere is essentially a shield that protects us from the charged particles from the Sun that are constantly bombarding us. Unfortunately, that protective shield is steadily getting weaker. In fact, scientists tell us that every ten years it is getting about 5 percent weaker. Needless to say, that has enormous implications for our future. In addition, the Earth’s magnetic field is becoming more unstable, and there are many that are speculating that an episode of instability may have caused the electrical blackout that we just witnessed in Spain and Portugal.
