Wow. This sounds both "hugh" and "series".
Will we be able to cook our Thanksgiving turkeys without an oven this year?

The theory, since we don't know for sure, is that it could have damaged more satellites, our Astronauts and others in the Space Station and the Russian space station could have been killed, and the Van Allen Radiation belts could have been compromised. No more protection from radiation , no life eventually on this planet.
