  • when will be the next?

  • impact area, hum, . . math is pretty sketchy on the way plasma fields disperse, not unlike our geo- magnetic field. Your math may be valid for matter in the first three states, but I have my reservations as to your math applied to plasma dynamics , even if the interacting variables were not in flux with the the plasma field acting apon the mass of attraction (earth) Telegraph systems were few last big time, the only measured damage during the 1856 event. . Always prepare to be prepared.

  • Except the impact area of those flares was for would would be considered a modern US State region. Not the world. Not the globe. One particular region. And there is no guarantee that the flare would strike a city. It could be the middle of nowhere. And let me tell you, there is a LOT of middle of nowhere on our planet.

    Redo your math. The odds on it killing all electronic devices and collapsing the global economy are right on the math of a lottery win.

  • twice in the last 150 years we have been hit by a mass coronal ejection powerful enough to destroy most modern electronic devices we currently use. What are the chances of it happening again soon, better than winning the lottery . what would happen if most of the machines were rendered broken overnight, well not good. Does any one care about this indisputable fact , appears only a few do. What happens when a asteroid falls into the sum,? Does this maybe have anything to do with sun spots ?

  • Yeh umm, Knab, soz to break it to you, SUPERMAN ISNT REAL.

  • Those things are the size of earth. If We were closer to the sun we would be dead meat!!!

  • wuuu

  • nevermind that, call ZOD

  • Superman would be dead meat with this sucker burning. Someone call Lex Luther -

  • holy shit, I like the color on it. So is clark kent going home now????
