UK Gov't: Earth Will Only Have 12-Hour Warning To Deal With Massive Sun Explosion!

he world will get just 12 hours warning if a huge explosion of high energy particles from the surface of the sun heads our way, a new report has cautioned. A plan to help prepare for major bursts of 'space weather' has been published by the British government, outlining what needs to be done to cope with such an event. It says that a massive solar phenomenon would disrupt transport networks, cause blackouts and disrupt satellites. The report warns that GPS systems could go down for up to three days at a time, leaving train networks and shipping badly affected. While mobile phones and landlines are expected to be unaffected, satellite communication and high frequency radio communication used by shipping and aircraft, could also go down for several days. Power grids could also be effected, leading to black outs in some areas.
