EMP denial
Amazon Web Services recovered Monday morning from a widespread outage that disrupted services for major retailers, airlines, social media apps, financial platforms, and more. AWS infrastructure supports millions of websites and platforms.Air France 447 in 2009, Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, and the recent Germanwings A320 incidents have drawn attention due to their significant impact on the airline industry, often attributing blame to pilot suicide, storms, or poor judgment. Similarly, crashes involving electric trains like the Disney Monorail, DC Metro in 2009, and Amtrak 188 are investigated with discussions of safety devices, track maintenance, or mechanical failure taking center stage.
The public only begins to suspect something larger at play when widespread issues arise. Disruptions in cell phone service are often blamed on blocked tower access or bad weather, while the Blackberry outage in 2008 was attributed to a software glitch. However, engineers maintaining equipment and the grid are not easily deceived. During the Washington DC blackout, an electrical issue initially described as a "surge" hinted at something unusual.
A key distinction exists between a failed electrical system, a simple outage, and an electromagnetic pulse. A pulse causes a surge—a sudden increase in magnetons and electrons—that disrupts equipment reliant on steady particle flow, leading to a runaway state. Surge protection can guard against lightning strikes, shutting down equipment to prevent damage. Yet, absent a lightning strike, such surges may point to the charged tail of Planet X, also known as Nibiru.
What lies ahead for the public? As cell phone service and satellite cable TV continue to degrade, and as planes experience increasing electronics failures or cockpit smoke incidents, the challenges posed by such phenomena may become harder to ignore.

Major delays inconvenience Oakland BART riders after fire at substation (Feb. 8, 2018)
A BART spokesperson said there was a report of an explosion and a fire at a substation north of Coliseum Station in Oakland, California.
Around 9:40 p.m., BART staff sent word of a 20-minute delay at the Coliseum delay due to a problem under investigation. That problem turned out to be a fire at a substation on-site, and trains resumed service through the Coliseum station around 10:25 p.m. with delays.
Then around 10:35 p.m., a second major delay occurred with reports of smoke on a train returning from the Coliseum station, as well as reports of flames in different locations along the trackway between the San Leandro and Bay Fair stations.
By 12:15 a.m. Friday, service was slowly returning to normal for BART system riders.
