Earth struck by most powerful space storm in three years
The most powerful geomagnetic storm since December 2006 struck the Earth on Monday, a day earlier than expected.
On 3 April, the SOHO spacecraft spotted a cloud of charged particles called a coronal mass ejection (CME) shooting from the sun at 500 kilometres per second. This velocity suggested the front would reach Earth in roughly three days.
"It hit earlier and harder than forecast," says Doug Biesecker of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado.
Fortunately, the storm was not intense enough to interfere strongly with power grids or satellite navigation,
The HAARP/storm was intense enough to interfere with satellites: Low orbit satellite “Galaxy 15” was disabled during the HAARP attack.“ The Orbital-built Galaxy 15 satellite suffered failures in its ability to send telemetry to ground teams, and to receive commands, on April 5.“ “Thompson said heightened solar activity, which he said was equivalent to an earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale, is “our best-informed guess” of what caused the Galaxy 15 problem” SRC: spacenews . com

I think simple physics should explain that any storm coming from the sun would push the ionosphere / magnetosphere away from the sun, and most any activity where the ionosphere is lifted up into space is not natural, its man made

Yeah, plan the haarp wwf battle for the coronal mass ejection... good plan.
