but 150 years later most of the planet not directly hit by the radiation would be almost okay(as in habitable) right?DHF said:well if the flare is that powerful, its not just the EMP that is hitting us, tons of lethal radiation would as well. the physical pop of flame that you typically see images of would never come anywhere near our orbit but the burst of radiation would spread out in a fairly wide path. If it was powerful enough to cause the effects we are talking about, the ice age would salt on the wound because that would be on top a devastating blow not only to human population but life across the entire biosphere.
I think however that this is quite different then what the Original poster was looking for.
