Radio Interference Caused by 1967 Solar Storm Nearly Started Nuclear War
(August 9, 2016) Business Insider reported that a colossal solar burst caused radio interference in 1967 that almost started a nuclear war. The "Great [Solar] Storm" of May 1967 caused widespread radio communications blackouts, and was seen as potential jamming from Soviet Russia. The Air Weather Service (AWS) — a relatively new branch of the Air Force — had warned military … [Read more...]
