Have you noticed your internet going out, your radio/tv interrupted or your gps is not working? Have you been feeling strange the past couple days? This could be do to the massive solar storm and flares shooting off the sun.
Alex Young, solar physicist at NASA, says "When the material from the coronal mass ejection hits the Earth’s magnetic field -- or magnetosphere -- it causes the field to “ring like a bell,” or oscillate.. This generates electrical currents that move around in the upper atmosphere and, when strong enough, causes electrical currents on the ground." The coronal mass ejection is expected to hit the Earth at about 1:30 a.m. Eastern time Thursday according to the LA Times.
The worst possibility is that these storms could take out one of our nations major power grids or it could even fry electronics like a EMP would not to mention that these storms have an effect on our brains and energy fields. All this at the same time a recent study was published by Space Weather: The International Journal of Research and Applications (published 23 February 2012), we have roughly a 12% chance of getting hit with a solar storm so powerful that it could take down the national power grid and yield catastrophic consequences for the general population. A large enough storm could send us back to the darkness of the medieval times completely decimating our global communication systems. A spokesman for the Center for Security Policy says “Within a year of that attack, nine out of 10 Americans would be dead, because we can’t support a population of the present size in urban centers and the like without electricity,” said Frank Gaffney, president of the Center for Security Policy.
I think this is reason enough to start preparing and getting some essential survival gear stashed for you and your family.
