Solar Flares - What Are the Threats to Our Beautiful, Blue Planet?

i'm interested in your work on what are called solar flares, and the extraordinary electromagnetic implications that these flares from coming from the sun have. Is it true to say that a solar flare could happen at any point and could bring down the earth's entire electronic infra structure? We're recognizing that we haven't seen the most intense sun in the space age that we could have. Even airlines are using the noah alert system so they don't fly over the poles where there's a lot of radiation going on.
