  The next Carrington Event would hit a very different world New calculations show a major solar storm could trigger cascading failures across GPS, communications, and navigation. A NASA image of a solar flare. As 2025 comes to a close, the conversation about collapse — when it might happen and what might be the trigger — seems to be heating up. Some say the “climate crisis” will push us over the edge. Others argue that supply chains, economics, and politics are bigger threats. You know who doesn’t care about these minuscule debates? The sun. A  new scientific paper , which has yet to be peer-reviewed, suggests a major solar storm could disable Earth’s satellite infrastructure and push the globe into a major crisis in less than three days. That margin has narrowed dramatically in recent years, the researchers say. In 2018, when roughly 4,000 satellites occupied low-Earth orbit, operators would have had months to maneuver and prevent cascading collisions if they lost control. T...

  Mysteriously, warming is happening across the solar system. The one common factor is at the center of it all: the sun. Because man is burning fossil fuels, our planet is allegedly becoming increasingly covered by a blanket of “heat-trapping” greenhouse gases, scientists like to make people believe. The recent global warming simply couldn’t have anything to do with the sun, they insist. They’re likely way off the mark. Today German   prof. Stefan Homburg tweeted a summary   of warming that’s happening at other places within our solar system, suggesting the sun is behind it. “Global warming isn’t only happening on earth,” he tweets. Triton has warmed 3°K For example, warming is happening on Triton, Neptune’s moon. According to Germany’s   wissenschaft.de : “Neptune’s giant moon Triton is the first body in the solar system where global warming could be detected.” According to measurements, the atmospheric pressure doubled and the temperature rose 3 degrees Kelvin. “T...
