This image takes a little time to complete, but please watch all of it. There are massive CMEs (Coronal Mass Ejection) occurring on thes sun this December. As you watch the video you will see tremendous outbursts of magnetism, flames, energy fields that can/will have some sort of impact on the earth. This video is from NASA and they have recently talked about these ejection possibly shutting down power stations, telecommunications, electrical grid etc etc. I guess the right amount of ejections or a powerful enough ejection can spell doom or at least a serious crippling of technology on earth.
