This article shown examples of rapid failure in electrical and communication systems under Threats of CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) from the sun flare. Is presented the past and present results of impact of CME to the Earth magnetosphere. Under these events are generate the massive geomagnetic storms. The solar flare merging from the sun Surface, and emitted powerful bursts of radiation and particles emission CME (Coronal Mass Ejection). This radiation under contract with the Earth magnetosphere ionize upper atmosphere and generate geomagnetic storms. The power of magnitude of geomagnetic storms can destroy or hard damaged the electrician and communications networks. Wide range of these failure can influence to the whole economy of each country. Last information’s from astronomers suggest that in future, in next 50 years, we can expect on Earth a strongly change of sun activity. This article have suggestion to take into consideration for Resilience Modelling for the electrical and communication systems an influence of CME (Coronal Mass Ejection).
