The Pulse was an electromagnetic burst of energy that corrupted much of the data in the United States on James Cameron's science fiction TV series, Dark Angel. On June 9, 2009, terrorists set off a device that created an electromagnetic pulse, turning America from superpower to third-world backwater overnight. However, the pulse did not affect all of America.

"They used to say one nuclear bomb can ruin your whole day. It was sort of a joke until the June morning those terrorist bozos whacked us with an electromagnetic pulse from eighty miles up. . . . You always hear people yappin' on how it was all different before the Pulse. . . . land of milk and honey, blah, blah, blah, with plenty of food and jobs and things actually worked. I was too young to remember, so . . . whatever." —Max Guevara (played by Jessica Alba)
