I'm concerned about how people would get their news about this. Now a days most people don't look at the newspaper, and it'll probably leave many confused as to what's going on with their electronics.
In orbit, I believe they adjust their courses by either expelling quick jets gases or with small blasts from thrusters. Otherwise, their orbital motion is maintained by, no joke, constantly falling sideways around the Earth
The last CME to hit the earth wasn't the Carrington event, in fact as I write this comment one born from a 3-4 wave "cannibal CME" spat out by a Carrington-sized sunspot is creating a powerful geomagnetic storm. Not quite Carrington powerful but as you can probably tell, civilization hasn't ended yet. Damage to orbital infrastructure would be significant but our terrestrial power grids have long been hardened against solar flares (especially after one fucked over Canada) and the fibre optic cables under the ocean aren't reliant on conductive media like telegraph wires. Wish you'd done more research for this video because it's a fascinating topic, but you have to dig through a lot of sensationalist bullshit which I think you unfortunately found yourself mired in.
12% of a large flare hitting the earth is uncomfortably high. It seems low, but not low enough for it to be unlikely to happen in our lifetimes.
Long story short: If the Sun shits the bed then technology shits the bed

this is the plot of my fictional story that will be done in 2022. this is going in my research folder
by the way the story is if the 2012 CME did hit the earth and if it was ejected not on the 23rd but the 14th
Cool
Ah yes, now it's time to go into an existential panic
Woah there's a lot to unpack in the title alone.
that was the greatest fucking intro I’ve ever seen
When you subed for tally hall and you get more this
This is very epic

I don't know how this channel isn't much bigger...
Because I don’t post often enough
Very informative and entertaining 👍
How do satellites move around in space?

Why do you know so much about so much stuff
Smart
