extreme solar energetic particle burstLive Science

NASA 's MAVEN orbiter, 2001 Mars Odyssey orbiter and Curiosity Mars rover each played key roles in capturing data from the solar storm.
MAVEN 's Solar Energetic Particle instrument helped scientists to recreate the aurora-creating energy.
Curiosity's Radiation Assessment Detector ( RAD ) instrument can pick up the most energetic particles, but it's the less energetic ones that create the stunning auroras.
Curiosity data showed just how much radiation the particle storm generated in Curiosity 's vicinity.
Scientists say this much radiation would not be deadly for humans, but it still serves to remind us that future visitors to the Red Planet will need to be properly shielded.
Scientists are also worried about agricultural development there.
Powerful solar storms like the one last month could make it tougher to grow enough food in the already challenging environment.
