Episode notes
Earth's Weakening Magnetic Shield
- Earth's magnetic field acts as a critical shield against solar radiation and plasma from the sun.
- Currently, this shield is weakening, with significant anomalies like the South Atlantic Anomaly and the accelerating North Magnetic Pole shift.
1921 Solar Storm Anecdote
- The 1921 solar storm caused fires and equipment failures even with a strong magnetic field.
- A similar storm today could devastate technology and infrastructure due to the weakened field.
Carrington Event Effects
- The 1859 Carrington Event showed intense solar activity causing auroras visible near the equator and compasses failing.
- It demonstrated how plasma can penetrate the magnetic shield affecting navigation and environment drastically.
