In September 1859, a massive solar flare unleashed a billion-ton cloud of magnetized plasma straight toward Earth, triggering the historic Carrington Event. The resulting solar storm set the night sky ablaze with low-latitude auroras and sent the world's early telegraph grid into complete chaos. While society survived largely unscathed in the 1800s, a modern-day repeat could completely devastate our electronics-dependent world...
Some made it. Many didn't. How To Survive digs into the real stories behind disasters, tragedies, and extreme moments, and the decisions that made all the difference.
