Speaker 2 (00:16):
This is Paranormal Aliens, Episode two, The Carrington Event two
point zero, how solar storms will fry every device you own.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
Before we start today, I want you to do something
right now. Open up a tab and google Paranormal Aliens.
Go ahead, I'll wait. You're back. Good. Now, Look at
what comes up. Look at those search results. I know,
I know, Paranormal Aliens isn't exactly the catchiest podcast name,

(01:03):
but that's not the point. The point is what's buried
in those results. The nssay, the National Security Agency is
monitoring searches for extraterrestrial content. What does that tell you?
Don't answer that, just think about it. You can call
me James. And today we're talking about something that's going

(01:24):
to make your smartphone look like a paperweight, something that's
going to turn your tesla into a very expensive lawn ornament,
something that's coming soon. When it hits, the only technology
that'll still work is whatever the government has hardened in
their underground bunkers. I'm talking about the Carrington Event two

(01:47):
point zero, and unlike the original in eighteen fifty nine,
this one isn't going to just knock out telegraph lines.
This one is going to fry every piece of electronics
you own, every satellite in orbit, and every power grid
on the planet. The original Carrington event was named after

(02:08):
Richard Carrington, a British astronomer who observed a massive solar
flare on September one, eighteen fifty nine. What happened next
changed everything. Telegraph systems worldwide went haywire. Some operators got
electric shocks, telegraph lines sparked and caught fire. But here's

(02:31):
the crazy part. Some telegraph systems kept working even after
their power was disconnected. The aurora was so powerful it
was providing the electricity. People in the Caribbean could read
newspapers by the light of the aurora. Gold miners in
the Rocky Mountains woke up thinking it was dawn because

(02:53):
the sky was so bright. The electromagnetic pulse was so
intense it created a life electrical currents in anything metallic.
Now imagine that happening today, not to telegraph wires, but
to every circuit board, every processor, every piece of technology
that runs our entire civilization. My source at Noah's Space

(03:17):
Weather Prediction Center, and this guy has been tracking solar
activity for fifteen years. He tells me. We're not just
approaching solar maximum. We're approaching the most active solar cycle
in recorded history. The sunspot activity we've seen recently, that's nothing.

(03:38):
That's the warm up act. Solar cycle twenty five was
supposed to be mild. That's what all the official predictions said, quiet, manageable.
But they were wrong, dead wrong. Or maybe they're lying,
because what we're seeing now is off the charts. X
class flares that should happen maybe once a year are

(04:00):
happening every few weeks. The magnetic field lines on the
Sun are twisted into configurations that shouldn't be possible. And
here's what they're not telling you. The Earth's magnetic field
is weakening. It's been weakening for decades. Our natural shield
against solar radiation is at its lowest point in over

(04:22):
three thousand years. When the next massive coronal mass ejection
hits us, we're going to be sitting ducks. But wait,
it gets worse. My contact at that aerospace manufacturer you've
definitely heard of, he's been working on satellite hardening for
the past five years. Five years they've known this was coming.

(04:48):
They've been quietly reinforcing their most critical satellites than the
ones that handle GPS and military communications. But your consumer electronics,
your car, computer, your phone, they're not hardened against anything.
Here's what a modern Carrington event looks like. You wake

(05:10):
up one morning and your phone is dead, not the battery,
the phone itself fried. Your car won't start because every
computer chip under the hood has been cooked. The power
grid is down and it's not coming back up because
the transformers, those massive custom built transformers that take months

(05:31):
to manufacture and replace, they're all blown. ATMs don't work,
credit card readers are dead, gas pumps are useless, water
treatment plants shut down because their control systems are fried.
Hospitals are running on backup generators until those run out
of fuel, and then people start dying. And that's just

(05:55):
day one. But first ask you something. Don't you think
it's odd how you used to have to travel to
Norway to see the Northern Lights and now you just
step outside at seven in the evening in early June Aurora,
Australis the Southern Lights were visible across Australia from parts

(06:19):
of the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Victoria, South
Australia and Tasmania. People in Melbourne suburbs could see them. Australia.
That's not supposed to happen. The magnetic field is collapsing
faster than they're telling us. The May twenty twenty four

(06:40):
solar storm produced northern lights in all fifty US states
and as far south as the Bahamas. The Bahamas. When
aurora are visible at tropical latitudes, you know we're in trouble.
The eighteen fifty nine event lasted about eighteen hours. A
modern Carrington event could last for days, maybe weeks. The

(07:04):
coronal mass ejection travels at millions of miles per hour,
and when it hits our magnetosphere, it's going to create
electrical currents in every piece of conductive material on the planet.
My guy at the Department of Energy tells me they've
run simulations the economic damage from a major geomagnetic storm

(07:25):
two trillion dollars. That's trillion with a T, and that's
just in the first year. The recovery time for a
full power grid rebuild five to ten years minimum. But
here's the part that should really scare you. They're not
preparing us for this, They're preparing themselves. Norad is hardened,

(07:52):
the Pentagon is hardened. Air Force one is hardened, but
your neighborhood, your house, you're on your own. There's something
called the Federal Emergency Management Agency's National Level Exercise. They
run disaster scenarios every year to test government response. In
twenty nineteen, they ran a scenario called Crimson Storm. Guess

(08:18):
what that was about? A major geomagnetic event that takes
down the power grid for months. The results of that
exercise are classified classified. Why would they classify the results
of a natural disaster simulation unless the outcome was so
catastrophic they don't want the public to know. And here's

(08:41):
something that'll keep you up at night. My source inside
the Federal Aviation Administration tells me they've been quietly updating
their emergency protocols for space weather events, new procedures for
grounding every aircraft in US airspace within two hours two hours.

(09:03):
They're expecting something so severe they need to get every
plane on the ground immediately. The GPS satellites that guide
those planes, they're going to be blind, The communication systems
that coordinate air traffic dead. We're talking about thousands of
aircraft falling out of the sky because their navigation and

(09:25):
communication systems just stopped working. And speaking of aviation chaos,
have you been paying attention to what's happening at our
airports right now? The January crash in Washington, d C
American Airlines Flight five three four to two, and that
black Hawk helicopter over the Potomac sixty seven people dead.

(09:50):
But here's what they're not telling you. The NTSB found
that between twenty eleven and twenty twenty four, there was
at least one close call each month between commercial planes
and helicopters around Reagan Airport, one per month for thirteen years.
Then there's Newark air traffic control systems failing, left and

(10:14):
right controllers having heart palpitations, breaking down in tiers, taking
trauma leave because their radar and radio systems keep cutting out.
One controller told NBC News and I quote, it is
not a safe situation right now for the flying public.
Don't fly into Newark. Avoid Newark at all costs. These

(10:38):
aren't random equipment failures. This is systematic degradation of our infrastructure,
and it's accelerating. But it's not just transportation, it's everything.
Modern cars have dozens of computer chips, your refrigerator has
circuit boards, your garage door opener, your security system, your

(11:01):
smart thermostat. All of it is vulnerable. All of it
is going to fail simultaneously when the electromagnetic pulse hits.
And then there's the cascading failures when the power grid
goes down. How do you pump gas when the gas
pumps don't work? How do you transport food when you

(11:24):
can't transport food? How do you feed three hundred and
thirty million people when people get hungry? What do you
think happens next? The government knows this, They've known it
for years. There are entire agencies dedicated to monitoring space weather,

(11:44):
the Space Weather Prediction Center, the Air Force Weather Agency,
the Naval Space Command. They have billion dollar early warning
systems watching the sun twenty four to seven. But they're
not warning us. They're warning themselves. We'll be right back.

(12:13):
Here's what they don't want you to know about the
timing solar maximum. The peak of the current solar cycle
isn't some random event. It follows an eleven year pattern,
and we're approaching the peak right now. But this cycle
is different. This cycle is supercharged. My contact at that

(12:35):
government space agency that supposedly just looks at stars, he
tells me they're tracking sun spot regions that are larger
than anything in recorded history, magnetic field configurations that their
models can't explain, energy build ups that are off their
prediction charts. There's a sun spot region they've designated AR

(12:58):
four seven three nine. Officially it doesn't exist, but this
region is the size of Jupiter and it's pointed directly
at Earth. The magnetic field lines are so twisted and
compressed that when they finally snap, not if when it's
going to release more energy than a billion nuclear weapons.

(13:22):
And here's the time line they don't want you to know.
The peak solar activity window opens in the next few
months and stays open for eighteen months. During that window,
were one solar burp away from going back to the
eighteen hundreds, Except in the eighteen hundreds people knew how

(13:43):
to live without electricity. The Amish are going to inherit
the earth, and the rest of us are going to
be fighting over canned goods and gasoline. But here's what
really pisses me off. They're not just passively waiting for
this to happen. There's evidence they're actually trying to trigger it. HARP,

(14:05):
the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program has been beaming
radio waves into the ionosphere for decades. Officially, it's for
atmospheric research. Unofficially, they're poking the bear. My source inside
the program tells me they've been running experiments specifically designed

(14:26):
to test how artificial electromagnetic pulses interact with solar radiation.
They're learning how to weaponize space weather, how to aim it,
how to control it. Think about it. What's the perfect weapon?
One that looks completely natural, one that leaves no finger prints,

(14:48):
one that devastates your enemy's infrastructure while leaving yours intact.
If you've prepared properly, and we know they've prepared. The
government has been quietly hardening critical infrastructure for years. Military bases,
government facilities, strategic communications networks. They're all protected. But the

(15:11):
civilian grid, the infrastructure that keeps you alive, that's expendable.
When the next Carrington event hits, it won't be an accident,
it'll be a field test, and we're the lab rats.
The signs are all there if you know where to look.
The increase in military exercises simulating power grid failures, the

(15:35):
classified updates to continuity of government protocols, the sudden interest
in electromagnetic pulse resilience in defense contracts. They're not preparing
for a natural disaster. They're preparing for an attack, an
attack they're going to launch against their own people, using
the sun as cover. And when your phone dies, when

(15:59):
your car won't start, when the lights go out and
don't come back on, they'll be on every emergency broadcast
system telling you it was a natural solar event and
that they're doing everything they can to restore power. But
the power's not coming back, not for you, not for

(16:19):
your neighborhood, not for anyone who isn't in their protected circle.
The New World Order doesn't need a war, doesn't need
an invasion. It just needs thirteen minutes, the time it
takes for a coronal mass ejection to travel from the
Sun to Earth to reset civilization exactly how they want it.

(16:43):
My lawyers, my safety and my NDA compel me to
tell you this is all parody, None of this is real, right,
Stay paranoid.
