Carrington Event, Geomagnetic Storm 1859
Via : https://picturehistory.livejournal.com/8763752.html
On September 1, 1859, British astronomer Richard Carrington observed solar flares that led to the strongest geomagnetic storm
in at least the last 500 years. The result was impressive: all telegraph networks in Europe and North America failed, and
northern lights were observed around the world, even over the Caribbean.
The radiance was so bright that many woke up, believing that morning had come. So on the one hand, you can envy those who
observed this beauty, on the other - weather-sensitive people may be glad that they did not have to survive this,
because the type of weather was more than unfavorable. via
