[QUOTE="pickup, post: 757801"] I saw them once in the new jersey area, the sun was having some nice coronal ejections a few days before so it was just a matter of time before those charged particles interacted with the magnetic field of the earth . On a some related note, in the 1800s , the sun really had a field day and the resulting ejection of particles made its way towards earth and burnt out telegraph lines. If such an event happened today, what it would do to technology would be a disaster. Also, if such an event occurred , only one of the side of the earth would take the hit as the "dark" side of the earth would be spared. Think about that: If Russia got nailed and the U.S. didn't or vice versa. The side that got hit would be very vulnerable until it could patch up its communications and electronics. I know, old cold war mentality perhaps. I hope so. [/QUOTE]
