The Carrington Event of 1859

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrington_Event

Quote:

The Carrington Event was a powerful geomagnetic storm on September 1–2, 1859, during solar cycle 10 (1855–1867). A solar coronal mass ejection (CME) hit Earth’s magnetosphere and induced the largest geomagnetic storm on record. The associated “white light flare” in the solar photosphere was observed and recorded by British astronomers Richard Carrington and Richard Hodgson. The storm caused strong auroral displays and caused serious damage to telegraph systems. The now-standard unique IAU identifier for this flare is SOL1859-09-01.

A solar storm of this magnitude occurring today would cause widespread electrical disruptions, blackouts, and damage due to extended outages of the electrical grid. The solar storm of 2012 was of similar magnitude, but it passed Earth’s orbit without striking the planet, missing by nine days.

...

In June 2013, a joint venture from researchers at Lloyd’s of London and Atmospheric and Environmental Research (AER) in the United States used data from the Carrington Event to estimate the cost of a similar event in the present to the U.S. alone at $0.6–2.6 trillion, which at the time equated to roughly 3.6% to 15.5% of annual GDP.

In related news, the CDC announced that the best way to prepare for this ejection, is to wear a layers of masks.

The CDC and NASA are working on joint guidance covering mask and apparel requirements as the Sun starts this next cycle.

NASA’s emerald spiral is cool. I understand the left is looking down on the top of our solar system with the sun in the middle and the earth is the yellow dot to the right. The center is on the horizontal axis with the sun to the left, and I haven’t figured out the right image. (X, Y and Z axis to translate 3 dimensions onto a flat image.) Just can’t quite visualize it yet. So glad that there are a lot of other directions besides straight at earth that these things can go. But one of these days, Alice. One of these days, POW! Right in the kisser!

Can’t figure out how to post it so here is a link.

We are Ants, yet the Left thinks we can control the Climate.

The fact that the Earth even exists and supports Life is a Miracle that God Almighty bestowed upon us, yet a majority of Humanity has no appreciation for the Gift that was given them.

I'm still licking my wounds from the Great Sun Flare of 2017.

I hope this one was not quite as bad as that!
