Space hurricanes, unlike typical geomagnetic disturbances, are stealthy threats to satellite systems, forming even when the sun is quiet. These swirling plasma vortices disrupt GPS accuracy, scramble satellite signals, and distort Earth’s magnetic field without warning. Their ability to bypass normal forecasting models makes them a hidden threat to global navigation and communication infrastructure, especially in remote polar regions.
