Irradiation
sauce: Researchers have discovered the existence of high-altitude "radiation clouds" that can expose airplane passengers to high levels of radiation. These clouds were discovered as part of the NASA-funded Automated Radiation Measurements for Aerospace Safety (ARMAS) program.
It's widely known that radiation levels are generally higher in the upper atmosphere versus on the ground, simply due to the higher levels of cosmic rays. However, when studying these levels of radiation, researchers detected small pockets where radiation levels suddenly spiked, up to double the normal level. These spikes could not be explained by normal sources of radiation like cosmic rays.
Instead, the researchers believe that geomagnetic storms, caused by shockwaves from the solar wind, are causing the radiation clouds. These shockwaves can free electrons trapped in the Van Allen belts and send them into the upper atmosphere, where they collide with oxygen or nitrogen atoms and emit radiation.
While the level of radiation is likely too low to affect most people, airplane crews, frequent flyers, and first trimester fetuses may be at greater risk due to their longer exposure times or greater vulnerability. The same ARMAS technology used to identify these radiation clouds might be used to track them, meaning flights could be diverted or rerouted to avoid them.
Possible that these pockets of radiation are NOT solar-based?
