Our planet, the world and we the living beings-all almost had come to an end two years ago but our Earth turned out to be fortunate enough to escape a strong and fierce solar storm.

“Luckily for us, it missed our home planet. If it had hit, we would still be picking up the pieces”, said Daniel Baker, researchers at Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics of the University of Colorado.

“If the storm had erupted a week earlier, Earth would have been in the line of fire”, Baker said.

The scientists all over the world said the Earth had a narrow escape in 2012 as the solar flare was very massive and dangerous but we were fortunate to miss it by nine days. Yes, the scientists said, had the solar storm arrived nine days earlier it would have wiped out power grids, radio communications and Global Positioning Station (GPS) systems and other modern infrastructures on Earth.

Modern civilization.
It just shuts down when you pull the power cord…

If that happened on the “Dark Ages” there would be no problem at all.
Because people back then knew how to light a fire on their own…

Beware of your assumptions. You are not so advanced as you thought.
