    Have these storms from the sun ever caused really dangerous problems for astronauts?

    Hi;

    I do not know, but I do believe that at least one EVA (spacewalk) has been cancelled at the last minute. Spacewalks are precarious times for astronauts if there are solar storms. I do not believe there have (yet) been any serious astronaut problems due to storms.
