The sun. Smooth and round and peaceful. Except when it suddenly vomits radiation and plasma in random directions. These solar flares and coronal mass ejections, or CMEs can hit earth and have serious consequences for humanity.
How exactly do they work, how bad could they be and can we prepare for them?

Hello
Loving the animations!
2020 finds this video very interesting
hello, i have been watching for over 4 years.....
keep on making awesome vids
:)
Hello :)
Imagine having a blackout for over 5 years while being quarantined
Up to 90% of US population will die of starvation, especially urban and suburban. Average food from farms travels 1600 miles before reaching consumers. Only pockets of people who'd survive are rural population who can grow their own food self sufficiently. Or extremely rich people in underground bunkers with 5 years worth of food.
구독 안하면 프사 님 미래 아들 - or you know, people would just grow their own food
Jack Rags
Because everyone has a large plot of land where they know how to farm.
@@user-up3dd1vw6b This isn't really true because they never said anything about how it would effect the transportation system. I think shortages of food are likely but mass starvation not so.
@@arandomzoomer4837 Starvation would happen not because of transportation, but because of not being able to preserve foods; refrigerators are really important!
Kurzgesagt in a nutshell: [Deadly thing]: Can this destroy humanity? *happy intro music plays*
Only humans acting like savages as they all have these last week, & a half can destroy humanity as they burn, & destroy everything in their path.
Manuel Tubens i know lol
They can't just change the intro music to match their subject

This video is sponsored by: you
The Northern lights tonight was so beautiful it reminded me of this vid
There is this really cool game called “The Long Dark”, where you have to survive in the northern Canadian wilderness after a geomagnetic storm sapped your plane’s battery. It’s a really fun game but since the geomagnetic storm would be a worldwide event it could be considered a post apocalyptic game. But unlike a lot of post apocalyptic games you get to SEE The apocalypse.
I love how Kurzgesagt always makes you feel like the earth is going to be destroyed and then they tell you nah its prob fine
Sounds like something weve heard all before.

Me watching this 3 years later when a mass coronal ejection is hitting Australia, where I live.
Lmfao it’s not “hitting Australia”
*a solar hurricane narrowly misses earth in 2012*
So that's where the whole *end of the world* thing came from
Makes sence
No, the whole thing was that the Mayan calendar supposedly ended in 2012 so that's what started the whole thing
3:38 How does it travel in less than a day? A day happens when light reaches the earth and according to Einstein’s, there is nothing faster than light. So wouldn’t that solar flare be breaking the fundamental laws of science?
@@-petrichor-7263 I think you're confusing the speed of light with the earths rotation. A day has nothing to do with the speed of light, a day is simply how long it takes the earth to do a full rotation on it's own axis. The plasma travels 150 million kilometres in less than a day. So to show the units better, 150,000,000km/day is the speed of the plasma, the speed of light is 2,590,000,000,000km/day so no laws are being broken here.
It takes aroung 8 minutes for light from the sun to reach the earth for reference - which has nothing to do with our definition of a 'day'.

@@aflaxnews5264 On their own, maybe these events are relatively minor but the combination is extraordinary in my opinion.
I love how most videos make a reference to how fragile humanity is, can't deny that its true, we really are fragile pieces of glass that could break any second. Yet, I love how it always ends with a positive note, either its something that's not in our hands anymore or other human beings are well aware of these events, so that they can be prevented. In the end, the entire universe will one day go into eternal sleep, yet before that I hope we can get to a certain type of civilization and make more discoveries about our beautiful universe before we all part.
The author of the video is extremely naive. Watch the movie "Don't Look Up". Until the US Congress makes a decision, the United States will be stuck in the Stone Age.

Idk how serious is it but i looked up NOAA Geomagnetic Storm Scale and from least to most severe it's g1,g2,g3,g4 and g5. The highest one?! And I read that it came 8 hours ago but it'll persist until at least sunday.
"this storm poses a risk for high-voltage transmission lines for power grids, but not the electrical lines typically found in residential homes." Good

A wise man once said "the sun is a deadly laser"
not anymore, there's a blanket~~
@@johnh5364 that blanket is probably not gonna be enough to survive a CME
@@johnh5364 Not to mention the magnetosphere is continuing to weaken as the poles are getting ready to flip. It's already weakened 10% or more since the Carrington Event and some scientists are saying that as we approach the flip a CME could potentially unlock the Earth's crust causing significantly rapid continental drift and giant tsunamis. While what they are spraying above us, CaCO3 or better nano-particle aluminum oxide, will absorb electromagnetic energy, it's just buying us time. Mother nature is right on time with her 12,000 year cycle. While I don't think humanity will go extinct, I doubt there will be 8 billion people on the planet after this. Finally, if governments around the world knew there was a 90% chance that this would happen in the next two decades do you really think they would tell us? I hope to God none of us ever lives to witness a mass extinction event but sadly they have happened. Be safe. Peace.

Cannot overstate the deep level of quality this channel delivers with.
One big question: how prepared do we need to be?
There is like a %12 chance of a big solar flare happening in the next years. And astronomers think it is most likely to happen in 2025 summer. Scientist will have a day or two after they notice the exact time. The best preparation possible is to shut down the main electricity, if you don't want your devices fried shut down all the house electricity and use tin foil to protect devices with batteries like phones, tablets, laptops... if enough people get prepared and gov shuts down the main thing in time we will probably survive it with no worst scenario... Unlike those pessimistic idiots in comments believing no matter what we do we die, with these done we are not doomed...
@@MAWasHere porfin alguien que entiende
What they mean by prepared is by continued monitoring, and more importantly to have the energy grid given the upgrades mentioned in the video. Right now our grid does not have such protection, and while it won't send us back 100 years, if said protections are added then we could probably just go one day even and then back to normal
@@justinh6651 What do you mean by going back one day? I mean, if one comes, we'll die and then we can fix it or something else?
And a solar storm could physically hurt us to the point of death?
I got to say this video hits very differently with the massive 11 year event,solar storm. That’s going on.
“Massive 11 year event,solar storm”??? Lmfao
@@DreamOfFlying yeah apparently the sun goes through an 11 year cycle where it produces massive solar storms Granted, looking back at my post. I worded that poorly lol

As a engineer in formation I can say, definitely

We just had two large solar storms on March and April 23rd. Auroras visible as far south as Texas and Arizona! I photographed a beautiful red/magenta glow just 30min north of Las Vegas.
Thankfully, impacts to the grid were minimal.
And here we are today facing a 5% chance of this happening with a sunspot pointed directly at us.
It means a solar flare not a coronal mass ejection
@@LeBaldo I assume by 'it', you're referring to that news. The 5% was for an X-class event like Carrington, which increasing percentages for smaller events.

"I'll take double!"
A solar flare actually just hit us this year not long ago
Today it's 2023.
Congress released a report 5 or so years ago on the effects of a EMP attack on the US, which would be similar to the super flare event. In that report they indicated they thought 90% of Americans would die. The video briefly bring up "food on store shelves", but it's much more serious than that. Our entire logistic planning, organization, and distribution is based on electronics. Food and supplies locally are only sufficient to sustain a population for a matter of days. The trucks that transport goods and services would not work. The computer systems that tracked what goods need to go where will not work.

Great video. We all strive for financial independence and better life. It’s not difficult in achieving this through the right investment, living frugally, and budgeting. I’m glad I learned early in life to work hard for financial freedom
In my opinion, venturing into a good investment is not just a strategy for generating passive income but a profitable saving method for future expenses. Those who fail to make the right decisions early in life end up regretting it. Nevertheless, investing can be difficult and risky doing it solely, For this reason, I advise seeking help from professionals(financial advisors). It’s not just watching videos and reading investment books the challenge is using them well.
@@harrisonjamie794 sincerely, I’m truly inspired by your words. I’m very interested in investing and I have got a good sum of money which I’m ready to put in with the right information. My biggest fear is losing my money on the wrong investment. For this reason, I’m willing to listen to your suggestions and ideas on how to invest wisely.
@@MarcelPhilips As an OAP with a lot of experience, I firmly believe that the success of any investment depends on having the right information, regardless of what others say, do whatever you set your mind to. Warren Buffer always says "be greedy when others are fearful and be fearful when others are greedy". This is certainly the trick to succeeding even when others fail. I made $100,000 working with MARTHA ALONSO HARA a licensed financial adviser . It’s been a promising experience so far with her.

Wasn't that even part of the plot of Assassin's Creed at some point?
Imagine if it happened, the conspiaracists would freak out.
Caiã Wlodarski Field day for the conspiracy theories.
There was also an event that year that almost happened that would have caused a mega tsunami event. An asteroid broke apart and was slated to hit a fault line in the sea that was predicted to cause a certain volcanic island to erupt in turn causing a piece of its land mass to fall into the sea in turn causing a larger displacement wave in turn devastating much of the world's economy.
Thankfully, the rotation of the earth is actually not fixed. Earthquakes can cause slight changes to the length of a day, extremely slight, but enough to throw off calculations like this such that the fault line wasn't impacted as predicted and the mega tsunami never happened.
That being said, volcano is passed due for another eruption. The last time it erupted a Chasm formed oh, but the islands didn't fall into the sea. Next time it erupts it might fall into the sea. Or it might not. We don't really know exactly when that will happen.
still, imagine if we got hit with a solar storm this year while all this other stuff is going on and then while people are dealing with a shut down power grid and are unable to receive Communications a mega tsunami wave hits destroying the entire east coast of the United States and the entire west coast of Europe. not saying that's likely, in fact it's extremely unlikely, but it would be a very bad day.
no, you didn't.
This man is the master of making us scared, just to tell us that we will probably be fine.
I will if that's what you want to hear. Just don't let the small things scare you like--"living life" with a purpose. We have had many extinction-level events before. People just don't want to talk about these things. Dying is easy--but it's living life with a purpose, a path, and a calling--that stomps most people. Most people go through life just merely bumping into one another and when too many people start bumping into one another, then people start to clash with one another.

Yeah, I think they can. Locusts are happening right now and a massive hurricane season has already been confirmed.
You forgot about the mutating virus resulting in a zombie apocalypse
As if NNN wasnt bad enough already D':
@@Corusame Everyone knows the zombie apocalypse is in December, gotta end with a bang, cmon now...
Remember they still gotta fit in world war 3
8:52 I find it rather reassuring actually.
The Long Dark is a great survival game about a CME wiping out civilisation after an already devastating economic collapse.

Who's here after the recent news of an upcoming Solar Superstorm this year?
“2020 can’t get any worse”
The Sun- Hold my sunglasses
* "hold my coronal mass ejection"
Omg
It’ll just be glasses*
That could have been funny but then you put the hold of my glasses part
‘Hold my corona
"Finally bought a strong gaming pc with all my money!"
*Solar hurricane* "I'm boutta end this man's whole career"
just unplug it
He bought?
*gaming
👌🏼
I saved up and planned for 1.5 years for a big trip...well corona said nope :(
On the time 8:15 i had Flashbacks of holow Knight. Like my mind went like RADIANCE!!! hes koming to kill us!
Ye
Yes
Carington event: *engulfs earth*
People circa 1859: “I missed the part where that’s my problem”
Earth: This sucks, but this year can't get any worse.
The Sun: *BEHOLD MY DEATH WAVES*
Hee Hoo! You Thought! You little miserable clumps of protein. You thought of something bright and hopeful, Hah! You thought! But NO! Things are bad and you shall not be the third person now. *Perspective changed to _First Person mode_ .

Who else is watching the day before a solar storm is about to hit, directly at my country…
There's already a bad heatwave going on in Europe, good luck
@@catherineb6889 yeah i live in the UK, temperatures hit 40 degrees however since i was in school with 4 layers of clothes and no AC i think the temperature for me was more around 50..
3:02 We see this all the time. Espically (I can't spell it right) in Canada's territories. (In case you wanted to ask me the question, yes it is winter year round in Canada.) In Canada, you either never catch a break from the sun, or you never see the sun in your life.
2020 when it hears about super solar flares:
“Ye I’ll have one of those.”

Who's watching this tonight?
"A solar hurricane narrowly missed earth in 2012"
Ancient Mayans: Oh come on, we were so close
In fact there was a calendar change where we accidentally zoomed back 8 years, meaning that it was actually supposed to happen in 2020, which probably would have been the end of the world back then.
@@Nebula_o7 Yes one missed us in 2020 as well
Mayans made a mistake writing 2012 when they're supposed to write 2021.

Yes
agreed @somewhat gamer don't do that it ruins it a bit :(
and plus hes made me smarter
@Aurelia I think you forgot about the black death that killed a 1/3 of Europe because of rats and fleas.also it doesn’t take much effort to ruined humanity it just that there are more people who wants peace than violent which is why most countries aren’t at war at each other.
It's ironic how people get recommended this when the Sun is literally having a Midlife crisis
