Study: Massive Solar Storm Is Coming In 2012 -
2013, Could Wipe Out Power Grid
NASA has previously warned in a study that
a solar storm on the surface of the sun could
hit earth in the coming years causing mass
destruction of our power grids. But unlike the
coronal mass ejection that provided views of
the aurora borealis at lower latitudes than
normal earlier this month, this type of solar
storm could be so powerful it may wipe out the
power grid on the entire planet. NASA says
that other geomagnetic storms occurred
back in 1859 and 1921, wiping out telegraph
wires completely. A solar storm of greater
magnitude could be even more severe today,
possibly leaving humans without
transportation, communication, or power. This
could have a profound effect on the world
economy and hold us hostage in a power-less
electrical gridlock. The current cycle of the
sun has been projected by some
scientists to be one of the most intense
since record keeping began almost 400 years
ago. The geomagnetic storms in the earth's
atmosphere from such a solar storm could have
catastrophic effects on the ground here in the
Capital District of Albany and upstate New
York, with the auroras being a beautiful side
effect.
