Any of these could be the world we live in 」

➥ Jasna Hodžić, daily.jstor.org
「 Power grids would topple immediately, leaving anything reliant on electricity, like lights, electric vehicles, and ventilators, inoperable. Astronauts would undoubtedly receive lethal doses of radiation, and even people on board airplanes could encounter dangerous levels 」
