Default Earth w/o Magnetosphere, w/o Moon

It's a snap judgement admittedly, but my understanding is
that the magnetosphere of the Earth diverts the particles
approaching us from old Sol into the Van Allen belts, or
away from Earth entirely. However, I'd have to study the
matter, and these particles will probably not be fatal to
burrowing creatures (since most of them can't penetrate
rock) -- just the ones on the surface.


Perhaps we humans that are smart enough should find those old fishy DNA
codes, so that we can retroactively evolve ourselves back in time, in
order to migrate ourselves safely back into our badly polluted and
dead-zone oceans of what's hosting mostly jellyfish.

Either that or take kindly to utilizing our very best intelligent
design, in order to obtain and/or expedite those rad-hard DNA mutations,
so that a thousand fold increase in our surface TBI exposure isn't such
a lethal factor. Seems like a good sort of forced evolutionary thing to
strive for, especially since our atmosphere will have become a little
thinner and the likes of our SAA will eventually be touching down and
covering most of Earth.
