And I really hope I’m right (which is why I’m dismissed from objectivity) because the only way I’ve ever seen out of the tyranny is “nothing short of a direct meteor hit”. And a superflare would be comparable.
I want to find data that supports my hope. Again, I’m off the varsity team for that reason alone but I can still chime in with a cheer from the bleachers.
I've had similar thoughts.
