Right now we're having a solar event that could cause some outages but I think you know. And there is the 12,800 year cycle that last time caused a horrific flood. We seem to be on the leading edge of it even now.

Yes. The normal timeline seems to be a Carrington level event in one solar cycle, and the next one, 11 years later, give or take a few, you get the micro-nova. I'm hoping the Carrington level event is this cycle, and the Sun explodes in 15 to 16 years maximum.

There are so many solar cycles so I may have 'em scrambled but here's the way I understand it: there's a Carrington Event about every 150 years and it's now been 160 years since the last one that melted telegraph wires so we're overdue. The eleven-year cycle is the Sunspot Cycle and we are now in the doldrums of that cycle so shortwave broadcasts are hard to pick up but only a few care because: the Internet. Chemtrails may also have contributed to the atrocious shortwave reception we're getting right now. Micro-nova? I hope you're pulling my leg on that one.

Not at all. There have been a slew of recent papers that describe various types of novae around the galaxy. A great many of them are RECURRING novae. Basically the galaxy's a very dusty place, only the dust comes in relatively dense sheets that are 10s of light-years apart.

These "waves" of dust reach the Sun every 12,000 years or so. Gravity from the sun accretes this dust, which contains atoms much heavier than the Sun's usual H & He diet. After enough accretion, it forms a sort of shell around the Sun: trapped in by gravity, pushed out by the solar wind.

Except where does the Sun's energy go when there is a shell around it? Nowhere, that's where. Until there's too much pent up and boooooom. The Earth's sediment contains isotopes that are ONLY formed inside a nova. These are relatively short-lived, so they can't come from any supernova many light-years away. Plus they are deposited in the sediment in layers of progressively advanced age. 12,000 years apart.

It's about to happen again.

Also, it seems each time there is a Carrington level event JUST before that.

For more info, study the videos shown by suspicious0bservers on youtube.

How powerful would the Carrington event be in a global sense if it happened today, or even something that beat the record of that event? And how do we even know how powerful that event was when scientific measuring wasn't as advanced back in the 19th century?

It's relatively easy to measure today, looking at the mineral layer just under the layer of ashes from a volcano from just after said event.

If it happened TODAY it might not send us all the way to the stone age, but the worst Carrington style events happen about a decade before the micro-nova, when the Earth's magnetic field is at its weakest. But give it 4-5 years of additional decline, and we'll be close.

Any X 7 flare might do it today, although I don't know the exact classification of the December 16, 1988 flare which was the most disruptive one that I can personally remember, with our grid in Québec going down for over 3 weeks.

Bottom line, there is quite a bit of data.

I rephrase: How do we know how powerful it truly was on electronics if there were very little electronics back then?

Well, it is known that solar flares can range up to a certain energy level, and the geomagnetic disruption levels are easily calculated per flare energy level. The stronger flares will feel like the EMP from a very strong nuclear weapon... EVERYWHERE.

And once again, it is known that a strong EMP kills everything electrical and of course electronic. It is inescapable and true.
