What are /sci/'s opinions on the dangers of big solar CME's and why nothing is being done to protect our infrastructure from it?

http://microgridmedia.com/grid-will-not-survive-geomagnetic-storm-or-emp-attack/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_storm_of_1859

>There is a 12 percent chance of a super solar storm the size of the Carrington event hitting Earth in the next 10 years, according to physicist Pete Riley, who published a paper in the journal Space Weather earlier this year on the topic.

It would be bad if it hit something like a nuclear power plant.

I've lived through hurricanes and the proceeding two weeks of no electricity.

I think people are frightened by this because the electrical grid will be down where the CME hits hardest. If you are really worried, just keep extra food, water and some way to boil water with gas or propane.

That's a euphemism because they conceal the existence of nuclear installations. A few will fukushima within a week and not a single one will survive going 'island' for more than a month.

Well there is discussion about it, but one approach is dealing with the root of the problem, and the other is more like slapping a band aid on after the damage is done. So which is better?

most of it isnt feasible in large enough instances to make a difference

i mean space mirrors?
really?

I think the best method of action is to run a closed circuit that uses excess energy for hydrolyses. Solar, wind, geo, nuclear all eventually make their way back to a fuel cell that generates hydrogen and stores it. It's less efficient than batteries but more utilitarian at this point, it's relatively easy to retrofit vehicles with hydrogen-hybrid systems which with proper tuning and R&D could substantially boost fuel efficiency. That's not just ICEs either, you could implement it in coal plants and natural gas plants too. Unfortunately the efficiency of reciprocity is really low, like below 13% and with current materials and understanding unscalable but it's excess energy so is efficiency really an issue?

What went wrong in the Soviet/Russian space program?

They used to be the leaders of space exploration in the 50's and early 60's, but starting around the late 60's they've been slowly dropping off the race and facing failure after failure.
Has Korolev's death really been that destructive?

You also keep hearing about how much the N1 rocket bogged everything down and what a complete failure it had been, but the people involved in it insist everything was going according to plan, that the biggest issues with it were ironed out by 1973, and if only it had another test launch it would have proved itself successful.
27 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
the problem with the N1 was they rushed it and didnt test the parts thoroughly prior to trying the complete setup

if they had, they'd have caught all the problems with fuel flow and vibrations

as another anon pointed out in a previous thread, depending on how you define "engines", the N1 isn't that much crazier than the gold-standard lifters in use today

I also think a issue was NASA talking the lead. They started buran and I think mir. Lots of R&D don't quote me I am a NASA nerd. Non related but does NASA ares include SLS?
