NASA has predicted the possability of some major solar storms this year through 2013, with the activity peaking in 2013. Recent massive coronal ejections (CME'S) have been recorded as recent as November, 16, 2012, when A giant solar prominence erupted from the sun. Luckily the eruption was not directed toward the earth. The worse recorded solar storm occurred back in September of 1859. I have heard very little about what might be considered in order to protect sensitive radio and electronic equipment in the event of such a solar event. All I can think of is a well sheilded metal enclosure, like a box that is grounded. This would provide a Faraday shielded protection. Any comment or suggestions? |
