there. these are areas that throw out solar flares. we love looking at these puppies. this stuff coming to us. this is as measured in the x-ray part of the wave lengths. that just looks cool. this is the solar flare that happened a day and a half ago. you see it kind of bubbling up and then, boom. there it goes. all those x-rays and radio wave lengths immediately get to the earth. the radio blackout happened about 1.5 days ago. it also emits coronal mass of plasma that s highly charged stuff. that eventually gets to the earth as well. when it does so, boy, we start to see some things happen. typically just the northern lights. when it s this strong, this is an x class flare, so when it s this strong we have some other things that we need to worry about. let s go over them. first of all, the radio blackout. that already happened. ignore that. power grid issues. we could see that happen. this is the strongest one we ve seen since 2006. we had some minor problems back then. gps
inconveniences over the next 12 to potentially 24 hours. we ve been talking about the sun here for a good couple of months because we re entering the cycle or part of an 11-year cycle where we re in the solar maximum. the next 18 to 24 months really we ll see a lot of this stuff. what do we mean by that? a lot of this stuff. black areas on the sun. sun spots. a lot of geomagnetic energy there. these are areas that throw out solar flares. we love looking at these puppies. this stuff coming to us. this is as measured in the x-ray part of the wave lengths. that just looks cool. this is the solar flare that happened a day and a half ago. you see it kind of bubbling up and then, boom. there it goes. all those x-rays and radio wave lengths immediately get to the earth. the radio blackout happened about 1.5 days ago. it also emits coronal mass of plasma that s highly charged stuff. that eventually gets to the earth as well. when it does so, boy, we start to see some things happen. t
