Excuse me if this was already asked. I've been away from the computer more the last few days and haven't kept up with each post as I usually do here. ok... It is about the huge X21? from the other day. Did this release a CME? I know it wasn't pointed directly at Earth. What would be the likely result of a huge CME from a solar flare that large, would be directed at the earth. Would it most likely do more harm than frying electrical things? I mean could it cause physical harm to living things? Thank you for taking the time to address this concern of mine...anyone.
