No major solar flares or coronal mass ejections were detected in the days leading up to Spain 's May 20 mobile outages or earlier power blackouts across the Iberian Peninsula .
Solar storms can, in turn, lead to widespread auroras, disrupt low Earth orbit satellites and affect power grids.
Spain 's latitude makes it unlikely to be affected by space weather.
Satellites in low Earth orbit ( LEO ) can experience increased atmospheric drag during solar storms.
This was seen during the 2022 Starlink incident, where 40 satellites were lost.
Geosynchronous satellites that sit in a higher orbit around our planet may also suffer some damage from solar particles.
