You guys prolly have read about it already. Incase you have not, have a look here:
How will it kill the interwebz?
Solar storm will destroy all the circuits in our ram, motherboard, processor, your cellphone your ipod. It will carry high amount of static charge on it which could do so.
Scientists believe it could damage everything from emergency services? systems, hospital equipment, banking systems and air traffic control devices, through to ?everyday? items such as home computers, iPods and Sat Navs.
Due to humans? heavy reliance on electronic devices, which are sensitive to magnetic energy, the storm could leave a multi-billion pound damage bill and ?potentially devastating? problems for governments.
?We know it is coming but we don?t know how bad it is going to be,? Dr Richard Fisher, the director of Nasa's Heliophysics division, said in an interview with The Daily Telegraph. ?It will disrupt communication devices such as satellites and car navigations, air travel, the banking system, our computers, everything that is electronic. It will cause major problems for the world. Large areas will be without electricity power and to repair that damage will be hard as that takes time.?
Dr Fisher added: ?Systems will just not work. The flares change the magnetic field on the earth that is rapid and like a lightning bolt. That is the solar affect.?
What do you think??
