NASA and the National Academy of Sciences has warned us of a coming 2012-2013 solar event that could possibly be the solar catastrophe that could spell disaster across the globe.

As the sun approaches the 2013 solar maximum, researchers say solar activity is just beginning, large solar flares are erupting on a regular basis with ever increasing strength. Recently, the Sun ejected an X-class flare on Friday.

NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory spotted the summer’s first ‘X’ solar flare on Friday – a huge outburst from the sun right at the top of the scale.

This came on the back of 12 ‘M’ flares in just six days, with a M6.1 flare knocking out radio signals across the planet on Thursday – hinting at the destruction the sun could reign on our technology if Earth takes a full blast across its blow.

The sunspot group behind the flares – named as AR1515 – stretches across 118,681 miles (191,000km) of the sun’s surface.

This makes it’s width more than 15 Earths set end to end, said NASA solar astrophysicist C. Alex Young.

The biggest flares are known as ‘X-class flares’ based on a classification system that divides solar flares according to their strength.

The smallest ones are A-class, which are similar to normal background levels, followed by B, C, M and X.

Similar to the Richter scale for earthquakes, each letter represents a 10-fold increase in energy output, meaning an X is ten times an M and 100 times a C.

The sun is now heading into the peak of its 11-year solar flare cycle, with 2013 expected to the tumultuous year.

Astronomers have predicted this solar maximum could be one of the most damaging on record, potentially sending millions in the developed world back into the stone age.

What’s more, NASA’s THEMIS satellites have discovered a gigantic hole in the earth’s magnetosphere 10 times larger than anyone expected to exist, this could be the key ingredient for a worldwide catastrophic event.

Ten days into the U.S. heatwave, heat records have been smashed in over 4,500 locations across the country, showing no signs of relief and numbers are expected to grow, death toll rose to at least 52 since Sunday.

Now more than ever do we need to stock up food and water and prepare for blackouts that may last for at least 2 years. The heat is causing droughts in the United States leading to one of the worst harvest seasons in recent memory, with some suggesting it could be as bad as the dust bowl of the Great Depression.
