Solar Flare
    #27116831 - 12/30/20 06:11 PM (3 years, 29 days ago)

So I got to thinking regarding pandemics and whatnot.  Our government really hasn't been there for us in the way I would have imagined and I'm not trying to get political.

If society decayed to the point of just surviving, what items that we take for granted are extremely difficult to make?  I'm not trying to  fill my garage with TP, but I'm just sorta curious what I should own before I'm in Mad Max...

Thanks!!

We take for granted everything virtually in this world of modern conveniences.  Most people don't have even a slight understanding of how food gets a grocery store, how medicines are produced, how vehicles work, how electricity works.  We can get even more fundamental, most people have a poor understanding of anything that does not directly have to do witht heir daily lives.  I don't really blame them, it's hard enough to get by as it is without taking the time to edify oneself on how that spiral ham got made for their Easter dinner.

You honestly bring up a great point which is: "what the heck is going on with our emergency response preparedness as a country, State, city, or even planet"?

A giant solar flare could hit us and wipe a lot of stuff out...more tsunami's, hurricanes, pandemics, asteroids, volcano's, or many other things could really shut down our way of life fast and we shouldn't just have back-up plans as individuals but publicly available plans that we get to (somewhat) democratically control as well.

It's a really thin veil of normalcy going on and there's got to be secret plans behind the scenes if the high-ranking powerful peoples have any kind of forethought what-so-ever...but the fact that we don't talk about it publicly is frustrating to see as there is going to be a lot of smart people and good resources not involved in such planning as a consequence.

I think that power grids and whatnot are actually pretty well shielded against solar flares these days.  Either that or they just have some failsafes in order to keep things from frying.  :justdontknow:

Space Weather said on Tuesday: "A stream of fast-moving solar wind could hit Earth's magnetic field on December 16." which is today.

Not sure what exactly will happen, most likely nothing, appearantly high altitudes will be more severely impacted.
