I think this is one of the most concrete examples of what might otherwise seem abstract regarding the weaking magnetic field and it's importance. I'm thankful Ben's been doing these videos for so long, as it took along time just for me to get the gist of what he was saying relative to all the climate change fear mongers who only see co2.

Sounds like they experienced glitches at a critical moment and that is why they failed. It doesn't follow that the satellites are inherently susceptible to failure from solar storms in thier operational state because those satellites are all fine.
