How a solar storm could leave us disconnected
Description
October 30, 2021
After decades of low activity, researchers says that we are entering what is expected to be an active 11-year cycle for solar storms. And a severe event could impact the way we live our digital lives, leaving us disconnected for weeks or even months. As Laura Casella reports for The New Reality, we are more vulnerable to these storms in Canada than other parts of the world.
