Forewarned is forearmed! Prudent and rational measures!

“This exercise will begin with a national massive coronal mass ejection event which will impact the national power grid as well as all forms of traditional communication, including land line telephone, cellphone, satellite, and Internet connectivity,” - - Army MARS Program Manager Paul English.

Preparations a prudent and reasonable the great fear in this case a solar flare ["massive coronal mass ejection event"] causing disruption and world-wide disturbance of a nature not seen since 1859!!

The Carrington Event!! 1859!

A solar flare of enormous proportions causing disruption on a planetary scale. Electrical and electronic devices either destroyed or made inoperative, for all that will mean for modern society!

London in 1859 an artists presentation of what the sky looked like in the immediate aftermath of the solar storm.

Regarding the Department of Defense [DoD] drill:

"DoD Plans Solar-Storm-Based National Blackout Drill During Antifa Protests In November"

"According to The National Association for Amateur Radio (ARRL), elements of the US Department of Defense (DOD) will simulate a  'communications inter-operability' training exercise across the United States on November 04-06. The announcement released on October 24 has not been widely distributed to the media, because the drill is simulating a total grid collapse and could spark public fear."

The electrical grid, indeed, all forms of electrical appliance and device as moderns understand it not present in 1859. Telegraph that only [?] widespread use of electricity at the time the Carrington Event causing disruption to telegraphy systems on a worldwide basis.

"Telegraph systems all over Europe and North America failed, in some cases giving telegraph operators electric shocks. Telegraph pylons threw sparks. Some telegraph operators could continue to send and receive messages despite having disconnected their power supplies."

Wait until the next one!!
