Severe Geomagnetic Storm Oct 25, 2011 + Iran & EMP Threat 2/3 Americans May Die?

SEVER GEOMAGNETIC STORM IN PROGRES

EMP CAUTION



check out the channel that forms and appears to feed energy into the sunspot on the sun's limb...and then POW! - a CME and blown-out magnetic lines. I've never seen anything quite like it. source: Helioviewer.org

"EMP doom! More than 2/3 of american population to perish within a year!!!"



this is a real threat, and may very well be our greatest threat.

EMP produces a large number of Compton electrons above our atmosphere which are trapped by the magnetic fields around the Earth. they move at the speed of light. The prompt effects are such that if the voltage is high enough, all electronic equipment within line of sight is damaged or destroyed. likely consequence of a high-altitude nuclear burst was corroborated by Dr. Lowell Wood, who in a field hearing at the Johns Hopkins University applied physics laboratory, made the observation that a burst like this above our atmosphere creating this electromagnetic pulse would set us back in technology of 100 years ago. and clearly the technology of 100 years ago could not support our present population in its distribution,''

so the population will shrink back to only that supported 100 yrs ago.

Nice post. Thanks.

IMO 2/3 less humans on the planet would be a good thing.

As long as I'm among that remaining 1/3rd, I'll agree with you entirely.

More psychotic rhetoric. See you all Wednesday!

Not really much of a threat.

I really don't need to explain myself,go research and learn for yourself.

Why is it always the US that has to be doomed and gloomed with all the doomsday prophecies. Not deny or adding to this just curious to why it's always the US?


Oh yeah, just an idea, would this be a backlash at the government being angry at OWS? Using HAARP to get back at it's own people. Sick if it's true.

Whats funny is we have 1000,s of nukes right in their region as we speak! They will hit them at all angles before they even make a move! BRING IT ON IRAN!!!!

What, again?

Hey Phage, don't bother I've got this one.

The Answer is NO.

Now if you want the techno-babble reason, search for the words CME Sun and EMP, Phage, and you can read all the other past posts on ATS by Phage about the subject.

I swear Phage needs to put up a FAQ

I do agree: We have more than 3000 nukes and every single one of them is hardened. Our electrical grid and cell phones and other electronics may be fried but the nukes we have spread out would indeed be catastrophic. further we have a lot of nukes on subs and many surface ships. Subs would just dive ...I don't think the emp would disturb them too much. and they are spread out. Any nation that thinks by doing an emp on us they can prevail is deluded.
Our strike capability would remain, and shortly thereafter...they would not.
and currently we are upgrading our arsenal. We could reach anywhere in the world quickly 50 years ago. We still can and they know it.. mutually assured destruction. the only thing that bothers me is that Iran actually believes it is good for them to die.. There are a whole lot of virgins up in Heaven waiting for them. But do the women get virgins to? that one I am not clear on. We shall see

Ignant.......please......

DENY "IGNANCE!"

well yea i believe Phage always/often reiterates:

- geomagnetic storms don't affect power grids nor electronics

- if it aint class X-class, no need for concern.

problem with that? not the only thing going on. why are large fireballs, meteors and satellites falling out of the sky these day seems everyday?

why are we experience Northern Lights in several regions of the world even New York State despite all its light pollution?

heck, where is Phage these days anyways? Himalaya bunker?

Do any of you think this may be related to the "strange noises" people have been hearing? Who is this Phage?

Man,really?
Don't you follow space news at all?
Satellites get old,orbits decay and the fall into the earth's atmosphere.
Nothing new there.
Meteor showers happen also.

AURORAS IN THE USA: Northern Lights have spilled across the Canadian border into the contiguous USA. Sighting reports have come from as far south as Arkansas, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Missouri, Nebraska, Kentucky, Indiana, Oklahoma, Kansas, Maryland, Michigan, , New York, Ohio and central California. The display was caused by the CME impact described below. Aurora alerts: text, voice. CME IMPACT: A CME hit Earth's magnetic field on Oct. 24th at approximately 1800 UT (02:00 pm EDT). According to analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab, the impact caused a strong compression of Earth's magnetic field, allowing solar wind to penetrate all the way down to geosynchronous orbit for a brief period between 19:06 UT and 19:11 UT. Earth-orbiting spacecraft could have been directly exposed to solar wind plasma during that time. The impact also sparked a geomagnetic storm, underway now. Geir Øye sends this picture from Ørsta, Norway:

At the end of its operational lifetime, a spacecraft is de-orbited above the geostationary arc and the controlled venting of pressure vessels and residual fuel takes place. Batteries are discharged and the power is shut down to eliminate any chance of explosion

lol. im half a world away in australia.......and i know who phage is!

Phage is our resident scientist.

The geomagnetic storm is nice tonight, although where I am, I'm only getting the pale green auroras, and the north looks like it's summer up there - light sky.


If an EMP knocks people back into the dark ages, less light pollution obstructing the view of the northern lights....

I heard someone on the news the other day say to expect many more of the satellites to come down, many of them are starting to get too old now.

Hummm, wonder if the "green fireball" is a test for a real EMP weapon?



I'm reminded of the message from "The Agency".

When the fireball enters Earth's atmosphere, you must go inside and stay inside for no less than three days. You need three days supply of water, food and any medication you require, in your home. You need to make sure you do not need to leave your home for three days, for any reason. If it is imperative that you leave your secure area, you must stay out of sunlight. This message is for the entire population, world wide. The air will be ok for the most part, but you need to stay inside for reasons we cannot disclose. There's no reason to panic or be alarmed if you simply stay inside. Do NOT go outside for any reason. Do not open your doors. Keep them locked. Close the blinds. Keep a TV or radio on.

Leaving a TV or a radio on didn't make sense to me ... before ... but ... they are both electronics.

I am trying to understand how being indoors for three days will keep us safe. What is it (the glass in our windows and the fabric of the curtains) keeping us safe from?
