Science fiction movie ‘2012’ that told about flare was not just an issue. The flare estimated will happens on 2012 until 2015. But it will not destroy world civilization.

“Lapan estimates the climax of sun activity will happens on 2012 until 2015. In the climax cycle, sun activity will be unbearable high and the flare will happens.” said Kabag Humas Lapan Elly Kuntjahyowati in the interview that accepted by detikcom, Thursday (March, 3rd 2010).

That flare is one of sun activity besides magnetic field, sunspots, lontaran corona mass burst, solar wind and energetic particles. The eruptions of sun can reach the earth. But that flare will not destroy the world directly.

“The society connects the flare with ‘end of life’ issue from Suku Maya prediction. Obviously from Lapan’s observation, flare won’t destroy the world directly.” She said.
The effects of the flare, she continued, will impact to the high technologies such as satellite and radio communication. Satellite will lose control and radio communication will break up.
“Another effect, sun activity impact to season change. When sun activity becomes higher so the sun will be hotter. Earth temperature increases and season will changes.” Jelas Elly.
Particles of sun that through layer of the earth’s atmosphere will affect season and weather. The most extreme effect is long drought. But it is still observed by scientist.
Lapan also want to socialize the sun activity effects to society. “Sosialisasi Fenomena Cuaca Antariksa 2012-2015” (Antariksa Weather Fenomena Socialization 2012-2015) will presented in Gedung Pasca Sarjana lantai 3, Universitas Udayana, Jl Jenderal Sudirman, Denpasar, Bali on March 9th 2010 at 11.00 Wita.
