EARTH?S magnetic shield seemingly collapsed for more than two hours earlier this month, leading some to predict that the end is near.
The magnetosphere is a magnetic field that surrounds Earth, and other planets individually, and protects us from solar winds and excess radiation.
Data from the NASA Weather Prediction Center showed that there was a complete collapse in the magnetosphere at 06.37 GMT on April 23, leaving us vulnerable to the dangers of the Sun until 08.39 GMT.
The temporary natural disablement of the magnetosphere would have interrupted whale navigation, bird flight, technology and the excess radiation could be potentially dangerous to humans and animals alike.
Superstation95 wrote on its website: ?When something this large happens to earth's magnetic fields, it can trigger massive earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, unpredictable ocean currents and tides.

?[The blast] will have sent a large surge of heat energy into the exposed ocean areas, increasing water temperatures enough to cause severe storms.?
