When the sun gives a large flare, what if the meteorite passed thru the
flame portion of the flare?
Does the flare have enough energy to magnetize a meteorite? The flare energy
is typicaly 10 to the 27th
ergs per second. That ought to be enough energy to light at least a couple
of light bulbs <ha ha>.
