On September 1–2, 1859, the largest recorded geomagnetic storm occurred. Aurorae were seen around the world, most notably over the Caribbean; also noteworthy were those over the Rocky Mountains that were so bright that their glow awoke gold miners, who began preparing breakfast because they thought it was morning. People who happened to be awake in the northeastern US could read a newspaper by the aurora’s light.

As clearly shown by the Fukushima and Oconee scenarios above, our nuclear power plants are not as safe as we previously thought. In the event of a large coronal mass ejection (solar flare) or missile-generated electromagnetic pulse detonated high above the Earth, it is highly unlikely that nuclear plants will be properly shielded from damaging radiation and are likely to endure wide-ranging failures which could lead to multiple meltdowns worldwide. Have you seen the television show “Revolution”? Modern civilization deteriorates after some mysterious force shuts off the power grid. Chaos and violence rule the day while the show’s cast rush to cut the power back on and restore America’s former glory. I want you to imagine that a nuclear device has just exploded over America. [38] Our reactors’ circuits are fried from the effects of EMP, unable to regulate cooling pumps and crucial systems, when 100 plants begin melting down, releasing massive amounts of fallout. As scary as this thought may be, it could be worse. A massive explosion on the sun could send a wall of energy our way at any moment, wiping out electronics worldwide along with our world’s power grids. This has happened before: it was called theTelegraph systems all over Europe and North America failed, in some cases even shocking telegraph operators.[39][40]Scientists say it is not a matter of “if” but a matter of “when” the next Carrington Event will occur. What effect will this solar kill-shot have on our nuclear stations worldwide? That remains to be seen. Trillions of dollars have been spent onand otherto detect, track, and hopefully destroy inter-continental ballistic missiles carrying nuclear/EMP warheads, that does not guarantee they will work when they time comes. [41] As evidenced by 9/11, the Boston bombing, and numerous other events, when we really need these gadgets to work, the people using them fail. Whether man-made or solar calamity, Electromagnetic Pulse is the greatest threat to modern society. The Heritage Foundation warn thatof an EMP attack due to starvation and domestic violence. [42] This estimate does not include deaths due to a Level 8 mutli-reactor meltdown as a result of electromagnetic pulse, nor do they even recognize the possibility.
