[00:00:00]Every single second, our planet is getting absolutely hammered by violent solar winds. The only thing standing between us and total radiation chaos is a giant magnetic bubble we cannot even see, but that is about to change. On May 19th, 2026, the European Space Agency is launching a groundbreaking mission called SMILE.

[00:00:19]Most satellites look down at the ground, but this one is looking at the invisible. It is heading out 121,000 km into deep space to use ultraviolet and x-ray vision. For 45 hours at a time, it will film the exact moment solar storms smash into our atmosphere and make our magnetic lines snap like rubber bands. Will we be ready for the next massive solar blast? Well, do stay with us and let's find out. [music]
