NASA is warning that we are due for a once in a century Solar Superstorm, which could leave us here on Earth in virtual darkness. UK engineers have carried out a detailed assessment of the risks from solar superstorms, and say governments need to do more to protect against them. What is this crazy storm and what we can we do? Laci has the details.

Agreed.
It would take a couple hundred million to reinforce the satellites and a some other systems, given what's at stake I don't think that's too much.
We weren't talking about the reinforcing satellites and the systems, we were talking about backing it up, as in copying it somewhere else.

Well, if you think of it, I could be worse like some of the fire or what ever it is from the sun comes really close to the earth. I wouldn't mind with no technology. We would have better things to do.
If we have 15 minutes that would be enough time to shut off essential technologies and power grids, we at least wouldn't be totally fucked
