About the Carrington Event
On September 1st 1859, Auroras erupted around the northern hemisphere, which was bright enough to be seen as far down as Cuba. At the same time, telegraphs around the globe failed, which caused sparks to fly across the room. The cause for both accidents was the natural disaster called the Carrington event. And that’s where we come in, creating a neural network to prepare the world for a repeat of the Carrington event.
