September 1859, the largest recorded geomagnetic storm occurred. The solar storm
battered the world's infant communication network. Telegraph wires burst into flames,
touching off fires. Telegraph machines scorched paper printouts, stunned operators with
electric shocks, transmitted gibberish and continued working for hours after being
unplugged from the batteries that powered them.

QuebecGridFailure
March 1989, the power grid in Quebec went from normal to shutdown in 92 seconds
during a large geomagnetic storm, according to a report by insurance giant, Lloyds of
London. It took 9 hours to restore normal operations, during which time five million
people were without electricity. Total cost: about $2 billion.
