Scientists have discovered evidence of the largest solar storm to ever hit Earth, hidden in Ancient Tree Rings. The storm, known as a Miyake Event, caused a huge spike in radiocarbon levels and could have severe disruptive effects on global technology and infrastructure if it happened today. Researchers have identified nine extreme solar events over the past 15,000 years, with the newly discovered event being the largest. The exact nature of these events is still poorly understood, but further research can help predict and potentially protect against future solar storms.
