Message Subject Sunspot 1117 EXPLODED!! Earth Facing!
Poster Handle Anonymous Coward
Post Content
I see a lot of numbers thrown out there about 8 hours, 2-3 days for effects to be felt.

Light, electromagnetism, X-Rays, infrared all travel at ~186k/s, it takes about 8 MINUTES to get here from the Sun.

Guess whatever is gonna happen from 1117 already happened, but we can always wait for the next one...

bsflag the heavier particles take 2-3 days to reach earth from the sun, and thats what could cause damage to the powergrid
