What is solar wind?
Solar winds move at a speed of 400 kilometers (250 mi) per second from the Sun. Corona's intense heat - The outermost part of the Sun's atmosphere raises the particles to such a level that the Sun's gravitational field can no longer hold onto them and they escape into space. The strength of solar wind varies, which is capable of disrupting space weather technology, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite.
