On: What a major solar storm could do

[mewpmewp2]

What if we moved earth closer to sun or more away from sun.

So maybe we are able to detect that at time X there will be solar flares. We know they will be here at X + 8min.

But if we start moving away now from the sun, we will have more time to deal with it.

If it was immediate it should also be immediate even if we moved to 20x distance of the sun, or no?
