This is kind of interesting because I never connected solar activity to various earth issues and that they are repeat offenders, especially transport and airline ticket systems. Also the little bit on the comet is interesting, as it maybe the brightest one ever seen if it comes to pass in 2022/2023.

    Ben does a great job and
    I try to watch his daily recap.
    It is an electric universe and the sun is power source in our system. As we spin around the Milky Way the sun is probably influenced by other giant stars or power sources.

    I was impressed how they just matter of factly stated how it impacted the various systems listed, like "Yea, this happens all the time" and no one seems to acknowledge that. Usually get some blather about a server or something. For such small events, a Carrington would trash everything, for a period of time, making Puerto Rico look like a small drill...

    The other thing to note how tiny the Earth is in comparison as the scale shows.
