For those of you that do not know, an EMP is an electromagnetic pulse, caused by a sudden burst of electromagnetic energy. An EMP can damage electronics that you have in your home, or in more serious circumstances, cause damage to buildings, vehicles, and even the landscape itself.

Lightning can cause an EMP, as can nuclear weapons. We've all seen evidence of the power of an EMP – think of a power outage by lightning or the ruin of a city struck by a nuclear explosion.
