Scientists propose space shield to protect Earth from solar storms - UPI.com
UPI reports: "If governments and their space agencies are serious about protecting
Earth from solar storms, one team of researchers argues a giant space
shield is the most logical solution.[....] Solar storms -- intense
waves of high energy particles flung into space during coronal mass
ejection -- aren't so much a threat to life. But they could seriously
damage satellites, electric grids, communications systems and a variety
of modern technologies."
Comment: They say it's only a matter of time before a 1859-like solar storm happens.
