The Norfolk Island effect was discovered in 1945 when scientists found that at dawn and dust disturbances on the suns surface could interfere with radio/radar signals. So the fact that there is a magnetic link between the sun and planet was demonstrated and established. Now this link is permanent for as the earth rotates then the link advances around the world until in 24 hours it comes back to start again.
