We should worry more about climate change tbh.

The monster Carrington Event solar storm was not unique and probably will happen again - Strange Sounds

It might be time to rewrite the history books. New research shows that the Carrington Event – a monster solar storm that hit Earth 161 years ago this week – might not be as unique as previously thought. Historical documents from East Asia suggest that Carrington Events (plural) have happened...

strangesounds.org

“The Carrington Event was not unique,” says Hisashi Hayakawa of Japan’s Nagoya University, whose recent study of solar storms has uncovered other events of comparable intensity. “While the Carrington Event has long been considered a once‐in‐a‐century catastrophe, historical observations warn us that this may be something that occurs much more frequently.”"

The 1921 Event That Could Kill 280 Million Americans Today - Off The Grid News

Our sun is a very volatile star, with violent eruptions often occurring without us even knowing it. Solar storms, defined by NASA as “eruptions of mass and energy from the solar surface, including prominences, flares, sunspots and coronal ejections,” are not a direct threat to us here on Earth’s...

www.offthegridnews.com

"Grid expert and Congressional EMP Commission member Peter Pry said in testimony this summer that a storm on par with the 1921 one “could kill up to 9 of 10 Americans through starvation, disease, and societal collapse” because the grid would be down for so long. That’s more than 280 million people."

The amount of time at which most of humankind has been massively dependent on electricity for survival is barely 60-80 years. If what these scientists are telling us are true, then that would mean solar activity makes the idea of a long-lived technologial civilization impossible.

It is possible that we might have just discovered the answer to the fermi-paradox...and we will probably experience this within our own lifetimes...

I know it sounds surreal...but we will probably all die.

It is fucking over. For real this time. We might have just a few decades left to live...

Why are you so pessimistic @disillusioned

Go bang another third whale, even if it isn't much, it will make you forget about everything worrying you right now.

 

[AlwaysHaveQuestions]

just read about a asteroid yesterday too
aposis i think

I prefer an asteroid to wipe everything out.
A gay flare is only gonna mess with my rotting.

Unlike most other doomsday scenarios this one is actually extremely plausable, because unlike other shit like super volcanos, asteroids etc these sort of solar flares happen every century or so. The only reason we didn't get fucked sooner is because our modern dependence on electric energy is extremely recent. Just a couple of months ago we barely avoided one. And we were told that if the storm had happened just one week earlier we would all have been fucked.

The last event was in 1921. It's now 2020 and we are overdo. We would be extremely lucky to avoid this for even just another 50 years. I don't think we will be that lucky. One will probably happen within 10-30 years. We are done. Civilization is done. Fuck it, the governments of the world probably know about this and are just not telling us. Hell, maybe the entire Corona thing is just them trying to reorder the entire world economy in preperation of it to reduce the damage done.

It's over.

We would die instantly. Some people in control don't want to die.

Its not over. Not even close.

 

[disillusioned]

We would die instantly.

No, we wouldn't. These flares are harmless to living beings. But they would destroy almost all technology on the planet. 90+% of all humans would die of famine or cold, and the rest would inherit a dystopia without any advanced technology. It would be like the situation from the mad max films.

...would you die? You specifically

Because I remember someone made a thread on wether we would doomsday event and I chose Mad Max. Call me naive and immature, BUT I have plenty of alternate future scenarios running around in my head for any sort of apocalypse. I don't know if you do, or if you want to.

ok but the mistake you made is that you think we can’t prepare for it. You can put the electronics in special metal boxes and then they wont get fucked up. Turning them off during the event will also lessen the damage. Also the flare event or whatever its called can have different levels of destruction and can be local to one part of the planet.

We should be worried about the heating of the atmosphere instead of some flare ups. Huh, that reminds me, maybe one of these events would be a good thing. It would make us less reliant on technology (the 1 in 10 who survive) and then the future humanity will be a bunch of agrarian farmers and live in nice little communes.

Already have alternate non grid dependent sources of energy so idc. Plus you can easily build faraday cages to protect your electrical devices from a CME.

Problem is not electronics. It's the energy infrastructure. What are you going to do when literally every single energy infrastructure in the world just coughs and fucking dies? What are you going to do once literally ALL food transportation ends because there are no cars, no ships, no airplanes...nothing.

This is doomsday. It will be centuries before the survivors could rebuild. If they even could at all.

Still tons of other shit that will fuck us even if we don't all fucking die.
