Description:
The video discusses a groundbreaking 2023 study revealing a colossal geomagnetic storm from 12,350 BCE, caused by a solar coronal mass ejection over 500 times stronger than the 1859 Carrington Event.
Led by Ilya Soskin’s team in Finland, the study used radiocarbon-14 spikes in tree rings and ice cores, analyzed via the SOAL-14CX model, to confirm the event’s scale. Occurring during the late Ice Age, this storm marks a new worst-case scenario for solar activity, highlighting risks to modern infrastructure like satellites and power grids.
The event coincided with the Paleolithic-Mesolithic transition, a time of hunter-gatherer societies and early domestication. The findings extend our understanding of solar events beyond the last 12,000 years and emphasize the need to prepare for future space weather threats.
