We actually know little of what kind of discharge can occur, but that spiral reminds me of an energy focus point.

Ping to possible electric universe precursor event.

NASA warns spectacular ‘beauty and the beast’ aurora could wreak havoc on Earth

---

Or not. We’ve never had an aurora before so we wouldn’t know.

[IronJack]

If its proportions are a Fibonacci sequence, it may be a form of alien email.

Or God doodling.

[EagleUSA]

Tax it. Register it. Prohibit it.

[sparklite2]

... and if you’ve ever had your havoc
wreaked, you know how painful it is.

[BitWielder1]

2016 and we have to worry about it now?
Or the next one? That's why we have circuit breakers.
And here I thought the sun was in a sunspot minimum.

[onedoug]

Pesky Sun. Blow it up!

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

While they are USUALLY harmless, SCIENTISTS warn that a particularly strong solar flare COULD one day release a pulse of charged particles capable of bringing down Earth’s communication networks.

Oh noes! MAYBE SOMEDAY we MIGHT all be cavemen again.
Maybe.
Someday.

Until NASA provides an actual photo, not a composite, of the Earth from space, nothing else they say matters. So sad.

[shanover]

Good thing government has prepared by protecting against EMP!

EVERY SINGLE TIME the Sun farts in our general direction the “experts” tell us that it may be the end of life on Earth..or not. I suppose if they are ever right we won’t know it.

[Gamecock]

The beast is the wave of charged particles that creates the aurora but might, one day, impair civilization.

Who cares? According to AOC we are all toast in 12 years anyway.

[mountainlion]

We are all going to die again but they forgot to tell us when.
