The suggestion that atmospheric disturbances might be due to a bombardment of the Earth's atmosphere by electrified particles from the Sun was first made by De Groot in 1917. A number of years later the U.S. Navy began experiments looking toward the establishment of a connection between these disturbances and solar activity. It was thought that there might be such a connection in the case of the type of atmospherics which sometimes produces simultaneous disturbances in the receiving apparatus at widely separated points as in Honolulu and San Francisco or even in Honolulu or San Francisco and Berlin. There seemed to be some evidence that these simultaneous disturbances took place when large sunspots were in the center of the Sun's disk facing the Earth. The observations were made in San Francisco and in Washington and were continued intermittently for more than a year but without leading to any definite conclusion. |
