 A scientific paper published earlier this year caused an online panic after predicting massive solar storms in space could cause an "Internet Apocalypse"

But many scientists are pushing back against the claims and the mass hysteria.

WFUV's Caroline Ealy sits down with Theoretical Physicist Dr. Christopher Aubin, who specializes in High Energy Physics, to discuss the science behind solar storms and why we shouldn't be losing sleep over an "Internet Apocalypse."
