Something Strange is happening with the Sun

[MorningSong]

From Spaceweather.com:


SUNSPOT PROFUSION: Sunspots are popping up in many locations across the sun's surface, causing the sunspot number to surge above 100. Leading the way is behemoth active region 1176, shown here in a photo taken yesterday by Larry Alvarez of Flower Mound Texas.

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/27mar11/Larry-Alvarez1_strip.jpg

AR1176, the multi-cored ensemble at the bottom of the image, is dragging a pair of long magnetic filaments behind as it cuts aross the solar disk. Two more sunspots are visible in the active region's wake. The entire starscape spans more than 500,000 km from top to bottom--truly impressive.

"I call this picture Solar Rip," says Alvarez, "because it looks like a rip across the stellar surface." With so much happening on the sun, now is a good time to consider purchasing a solar telescope. Browse the links below for inspiration...

From Spaceweather.com:


SOLAR RADIO STORM: Did you know sunspots can make noise? Consider the following: "Over the past few days, I have been recording a sustained solar radio storm at 180 MHz," reports amateur radio astronomer Thomas Ashcraft of New Mexico. "It consists of Type I radio bursts and sounds like ocean surf. Here is an audio sample from March 27th at 1930 UT. The sun seems to be entering a new phase of dynamism."

Radio emissions like these are caused by plasma instabilities in the sun's atmosphere above sunspots. With the sun becoming 'radio-active,' it's no coincidence that sunspots are emerging in abundance. Leading the way is behemoth active region AR1176, shown here in a photo taken by Larry Alvarez of Flower Mound, Texas:

From Spaceweather.com today:


UNSTABLE FILAMENT: An active filament of solar magnetism is snaking around the sun's southeastern limb today. Measuring more than 200,000 km along its sinuous backbone, the vast structure is in a constant state of motion. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory froze it in this snapshot taken 20:16 UT on April 5th:

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/05apr11/dancingfilament_strip.jpg

Filaments as agitated as this one is often erupt and hurl parts of themselves into space. Because of the filament's location on the sun's limb, any such blast would not be Earth-directed, but it would be photogenic! Readers with solar telescopes are encouraged to monitor the action.

Good gad! We're going to be crisped?

To be honest, it all gets a little overwhelming given the enormity of information we absorb every day from the various rabbit holes - mostly pointing towards the negative, so "getting crisped" doesn't sound to bad an idea. We need not worry about s h i t e again... :cool:

[MorningSong]

CME in arrivo! I don't know why, but it appears to me that things are getting more and more difficult to detect and verify of late.....grrrrr. See how even Spaceweather has hidden the info?

From Spaceweather.com


AURORA WATCH: High latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras. NOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of geomagnetic activity during the next 48 hours, when a solar wind stream is expected to buffet Earth's magnetic field. A coronal mass ejection (movie) detected by NASA's STEREO probes on April 9th could also reach Earth and contribute to the display on April 11th.

The movie only shows 2 photoframes: one from 3: 39 UT and one from 21:24. (DUH!)

From http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/ftpdir/latest/RSGA.txt:


A partial-halo CME was observed
on SOHO/LASCO C2 imagery at 09/0024Z, with a speed of approximately
275 km/s....

The partial-halo CME referenced in paragraph IA, is not
expected to be geoeffective.


We'll see.....

But just for curiosity... why don't we all go take a peek over at SOHO LASCO2 and watch the fireworks that have been going on since the 7th (that noone is talking about)!:popcorn::popcorn:

[MorningSong]

I have been expecting the arrival of the slow moving CME announced yesterday and was up most of the night monitoring.... the long period of low density/velocity appeared to me like a very low tide before a tsunami. (Check the data if you wish.)

It looks like it has reached Earth finally, a little before 7:00 UT. It isn't too strong right now, but it might get worse. No data on the usual sites, yet, except this:

http://www2.nict.go.jp/y/y223/simulation/realtime/

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/ace/MAG_SWEPAM_24h.html

Spaceweather.com has this in the "Aurora" section:


NOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of geomagnetic activity during the next 24 hours, when a solar wind stream is expected to buffet Earth's magnetic field. A coronal mass ejection (movie) detected by NASA's STEREO probes on April 9th could also reach Earth and contribute to a possible display on April 11th.

PS I see that SKi has just reported another EQ in Japan..... heads up, people!

[ViralSpiral]

Thank you for the continuous updates Morningsong
Accounts for the "thunder" in my head.

On the first link above, it states: The simulation has been stopped due to power outage.

:eek:

[MorningSong]

That notice has been up since the first huge EQ in Japan where this data comes from... it went off-line for a few days.

The site is working, as you can see. They just haven't taken the old notice down.... no problem at the moment.

If you scroll down the initial graphs, you will see the earlier depictions of data.

[yiolas]

This guy has an interesting take on combining all of the sun data to generate correlations with earthquake and volcanic activity.

[MorningSong]

Thanks, yiolas, for bringing this up. I have been following this fellow's work for quite a while.. very good work there and he often is correct in his predictions.

I found this today, about the Solar Cycle 24 picking up with comparison to the prolonged low in 2008:

Solar Activity Heats Up


April 14, 2011: If you've ever stood in front of a hot stove, watching a pot of water and waiting impatiently for it to boil, you know what it feels like to be a solar physicist.

Back in 2008, the solar cycle plunged into the deepest minimum in nearly a century. Sunspots all but vanished, solar flares subsided, and the sun was eerily quiet.

"Ever since, we've been waiting for solar activity to pick up," says Richard Fisher, head of the Heliophysics Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington DC. "It's been three long years."

Quiet spells on the sun are nothing new. They come along every 11 years or so—it's a natural part of the solar cycle. This particular solar minimum, however, was lasting longer than usual, prompting some researchers to wonder if it would ever end.

News flash: The pot is starting to boil. "Finally," says Fisher, "we are beginning to see some action."

[freespirit]

WoW just checked in at http://solarmonitor.org/ and counted 10 active regions,that must be a record ?

[MorningSong]

Yes, Freespirit, the sun is peppered with numerous sunspots right now... I see 9 listed this morning.

Last month, days before the big Japan quake of March 11, there were 8 active regions reported all at one time, which produced numerous M-class flares and 2 X-class flares.

Yesterday, Sunspot 1190 presented 9 C-class flare and 1 M_class flare. All are probably earth bound.

Spaceweather.com:


M-FLARE: The magnetic canopy of sunspot 1190 erupted on April 15th, producing an M-class solar flare (SDO movie). The brief blast did not, however, hurl a cloud of plasma toward Earth. NOAA forecasters estimate a 55% chance of more M-flares during the next 24 hours.

From http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/forecast.html


Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 14/2100Z
to 15/2100Z: Solar activity increased to moderate levels. Region
1190 (N13W26) produced an M1/1F flare at 15/1712Z. Associated with
this event were discrete radio emissions ranging from 4995 MHz -
15400 MHz. Occasional C-class flares were also observed during the
period. Region 1190 and Region 1193 (N17E44) remain the most
significant regions. Both Regions 1190 and 1193 showed increases in
areal coverage. A filament was observed lifting at 14/2324Z on GOES
SXI. A CME was observed on SOHO/LASCO C2 imagery at 15/0036Z, with a
speed of approximately 390 km/s. STEREO imagery showed the CME is
expected to be geoeffective.

Hi guys, just to get this straight. Is this an illustration of the measurement of electrons hitting various parts of the earth ?
And if so what does it mean when we have high or low measurements.

[MorningSong]

Hello all!

Yes, Yiolas, the graph Rocky posted shows the electron density coming from outer space, the sun and such, that has found it's way through the Earth's natural boundary, the magnetosphere.

And yes, observer, David's explanation is quite "spot on" in that we are being bombarded with huge quantities of man-made, man-provoked and "natural" (not so "normal", let's say) solar/space radiation. Normally our magnetosphere defends the Earth from most incoming and particularly dangerous radiation, but scientists have been reporting more and more often "holes" in the mag field...which, if anyone would just stop and think about that a minute, should sound an alarm, IMO.

Electromagnetic Radiation
Radiation which has both electric and magnetic properties. Examples: microwaves, light, infra-red, ultraviolet, X rays, gamma, radio and television. Travels at 300 million m/s.

Extreme Ultraviolet Radiation
Electromagnetic radiation at the high frequency end of the ultraviolet spectrum.

Electron Density
The number of electrons in a unit volume, e.g., 1 cubic centimetre.

So, where you see in this graph, yellow, orange and red, the quantity of charged electrons (free radicals) is higher and is more dangerous for our living planet. (Have you ever wondered why the equatorial tropics were hotter, covered with thick forests and jungles or deserts?)

Here are a few other resources to ponder about:

http://www.gdgps.net/products/images/tec-map-br.jpg
http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/drap/index.html

Oh, and here's something related from Spaceweather.com today:


SUN-EARTH CONNECTION: Even a small solar flare can reach out and touch the Earth. On April 16th, sunspot 1190 produced a relatively minor C5-class flare. X-rays from the distant explosion broke apart molecules in Earth's upper atmosphere, creating a wave of ionization over Europe. Researcher Rob Stammes detected the sudden ionospheric disturbance or "SID" using a very low frequency radio receiver at the Polar Light Center in Lofoten, Norway:

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/17apr11/Rob-Stammes1_strip.jpg

The wave of ionization allowed signals from a terrestrial radio station to bounce over the horizon into Stamme's 23.4 kHz VLF antenna. That's what's shown in the upper panel. Now consider the lower panel: "There was also a small increase in radio noise directly from the flare itself at 56.25 MHz," points out Stammes. "Contact with the sun at VLF and VHF radio frequencies at the same moment gives me important information."

Readers, would you like to be in radio contact with the sun? Visit NASA's RadioJove web site for instructions.

HAM radio folks just love it when "ionization" occurs....their toys give them great joys...... HAARP, too.

Is the sun giving us "the finger" or is that phallic? (sorry....lol)

[observer]

Here's one more resource you can add to your list of resources, MorningSong. I keep this one in my 'weather' folder in my Favorites - along with most of the ones you have already listed:

http://www.radiationnetwork.com/



These numbers are from an independent website, so one can assume the counts aren't manipulated as one may find at a government sponsored site. I'm sure cosmic radiation is included in the geiger count that is represented in the CPMs (counts per minute) that is depicted in each yellow circle indicating another monitoring station.

Since the Fukushima event, I visit this site each day before I go out to work.

[MorningSong]

Thanks, observer. I do already have this bookmarked in my "radiation" file under "alert maps".... it's a good'un.

WOW! Denver is up to 70 right now....hmmmmmm...grrrr...hmmmmmm!

Yes, ogb, the sun let out some "wind" which reached Earth yesterday causing a short geomagnetic storm:

I don't know what has just transpired because none of my resources are "real time"...but.....

As of 19:30 UT, there have been 12 C-class flares and 2 M-class flares today...all from sunspot 1195 !!!

http://www.lmsal.com/solarsoft/latest_events/

From Spaceweather.com:


SOLAR FLARES: Emerging sunspot complex 1195-1196 is crackling with M- and C-class solar flares. John Stetson and students in South Portland, Maine, caught one of them in this snapshot taken April 21st at 1500 UT:

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/21apr11/cflare_strip.jpg

"Big sunspot 1193 was an attractive target," says Stetson, "but the real action was taking place around the sun's southeastern limb." Indeed, that is where readers with solar telescopes should point their optics. AR1195-1196 is growing in complexity and more flares could be in the offing.

The real thing is.. the flare is still active..
i saw the last 100 pictures.. and there are more.. and its the same brightness.. I notice its not a paused imaged, because the celestial star map is rotating..

What is happening? i never seen this before.

[MorningSong]

@Rocky RE:"Citizen Scientists Making Incredible Discoveries" - I did see that mentioned on Spaceweather.com, but I did not follow the link at the time. I think that it is interesting that there are so many people volunteering to go through the images... "we" humans are truely waking up and are flocking to get a look on the "inside".... if "they" don't have the time, by golly, we'll take care of it, huh? (Too bad they can't pay to get it done, though. It'd be a great job, I think. Poor undergraduate who had to tackle all that data alone. I bet he/she did get burnt out after 50,0000 images.)

@ Miguel and jcocks RE: Lasco3: If you go to the SOHO/Lasco site directly, you will see that that bright light is just not there anymore... don't ask me why, I don't know. Any ideas? http://lasco-www.nrl.navy.mil/cgi-bin/latest_img.cgi?c3+gifs

Hi Miguel,
it is not an ongoing flare, even if it looks like that.
It seems that the satellite camera has de-aligned itself, while compensating for the slow rotation of the satellite. There has been a gap of 8 hours between these two pics.
Last pic before the rotation:

http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/7162/201104221006c3512.jpg (http://img819.imageshack.us/i/201104221006c3512.jpg/)

Do you notice that the holder for the sun-blinder has rotated 180 degree?
In the first pic it protrudes from the lower left corner, while in the second pic it comes down from the upper right corner.
That shows you that the camera has rotated within these 8 hours and has somehow disaligned the blinder.
This brightness has technical reasons and is not caused by a continuous flare; also you do not see activity on the C2 picures.

Most likely it will be re-aligned during the next rotation.

But its weird because the date on your picture is day 22.. and mine is 25.. and the star field is not the same, i saw the movie.. of 100 pics, with time changing and the flare is there..

Another weird thing is..

I posted the pic on 23 april with date=25?? how can that be 2 days difference??

Earth is being impacted by Solar Wind from the current Coronal Hole since about 17:00 UT yesterday. High velocity of 750 km/sec has been reached in the past hour.

See http://www2.nict.go.jp/y/y223/simulation/realtime/

From Spaceweathr.com:


CORONAL HOLE: NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory is monitoring a hole in the sun's atmosphere--a "coronal hole." It is the dark region circled in this extreme ultraviolet image taken during the early hours of April 28th:

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/28apr11/coronalhole_strip.jpg

Coronal holes are places where the sun's magnetic field opens up and allows the solar wind to escape. A stream of solar wind flowing from this coronal hole is expected to reach Earth on April 30th-May 1st. NOAA forecasters estimate a 35% chance of geomagnetic activity at that time.

[panopticon]

G'day All,

I found this on the NASA science News website (http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/14apr_thewatchedpot/).
Official NASA youtube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBl_FOONrB0) is below concerning the beginning of solar cycle 24 (2.5 minute duration).

iBl_FOONrB0

This is not 'news' to frequent viewers of this thread.
What I found interesting was how the Maunder Minimum was carefully edited out of the solar cycle timeline graph displayed at 2:14. The graphical representation starts at date: 1750 CE, which is also the end of the 70 year Maunder Minimum as shown in the graph below also from NASA (http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2009/29may_noaaprediction/).

http://science.nasa.gov/media/medialibrary/2009/05/29/29may_noaaprediction_resources/maunderminimum.jpg

This omission may have been co-incidence, accidental or due to the site being mainly aimed at a younger and/or non-science audience. I view it is important to observe and make note of these omissions (as I am doing with this post) as they assist in an altered perception of history as a linear (contiguous) progression rather than as a disparate (non-contiguous) one as well as allow for a basis of mistaken understandings within people who are unaware of them.

Kind Regards, :yo:

[Peace of Mind]

Hmm..

I have this strong feeling that the sun is supposed to feed us a certain type of energy and these chemical sprayings of dust metals is a poor and unhealthy attempt at blocking out the rays…or at least distort the inbound information. This is just my hunch after researching countless Egyptian artifacts and symbols. It seems the sun is getting brighter and hotter but it feels so energizing, the feeling is very hard to put into words, I especially notice the energy (or lack of) during the cloudy days when there is heavy cloud makers roaming the skies.

Peace

[Rocky_Shorz]

hey Onyx, looks like your friends are back... ;)

[MorningSong]

Here's what it was, guys,,,from Spaceweather.com:


SDO SEES MOUNTTAINS ON THE MOON: There was no eclipse on Earth, today, but there was one in Earth orbit. More than 22,000 miles above the planet's surface, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory watched the Moon pass almost directly in front of the sun:

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/03may11/eclipse_strip.jpg

Look at the full-sized image and trace your finger around the Moon's limb. Thanks to the high resolution of SDO's 16 megapixel cameras, you can actually count jagged mountains backlit by the sun's atmosphere.

Beyond the novelty of observing a such an event from space, these images have practical value to the SDO science team. Karel Schrijver of Lockheed-Martin's Solar and Astrophysics Lab explains: "The very sharp edge of the lunar limb allows us to measure the in-orbit characteristics of the telescope--e.g., light diffraction on optics and filter support grids. Once these are characterized, we can use that information to correct our data for instrumental effects and sharpen up the images to even more detail."

I found the news of a comet diving into the sun on another forum and thought it would be interesting to share with everybody.

Sunwatcher's latest YT vid: Explosive Solar Eruption / Solar Watch May 10th 2011

VDNJlfffn34&feature

[g.k.r]

a friend of mine was monitoring the solar activity and pointed out to me that was lot of activity, he showed me the pics from a site, i didnt think much of it till the next day when the japan earthquake hit, wondering if this is what this post is about

[Mostafa]

on the same basis, I wonder if the yesterday's sun-bound comet will have any effect on earth.

[MorningSong]

According to SolarSoft there was a Filament Eruption this morning, and I quote, "Comet trigger?"

http://www.lmsal.com/solarsoft/latest_events/

And the electron flux has gone wacko again.....

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/elec_3d.html

I think that the sundiving comets (along with other kinds of events) do affect sun activity/ EQ activity. Try googling and many events do pair up quite remarkably, for example, try March 13th, 2010; Oct 21, 2010; Dec 13-22, 2010...

[Mostafa]

I checked http://earthquakestoday.info/ and I saw that there was a lot of EQ activity in Australia's vicinity for the past 7 days.

speaking holographically here:
if the sun is the heart of the solar system my guess would be an increased rate of heart attacks for the day

one would have to find if the statistics at WHO would show a spike,
but then again
I don't trust their statistics anyway....

[Darla Ken Pearce]

This is our local sun we are looking at and it's a reflection of the Central Sun of the Milky Way Galaxy ~ always interesting to watch as it is relayed back to Earth.

I love and thank all of you for posting these great links! This is an exciting enterprise to watch these events unfold. I thank you, I thank you, I thank you each for illuminating our path forward with links and images. This is one of my favorite threads on Avalon. Much love! xoxoxoxox

Latest from spaceweather.com:



AURORA WATCH: A coronal mass ejection launched from the sun's eastern limb on May 9th could deliver a glancing blow to Earth's magnetic field today. NOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of geomagnetic activity if and when the CME arrives. High-latitude sky watchers, be alert for auroras.


COMET AND CME: A comet dove into the sun on May 11th and seemed to trigger a massive eruption--emphasis on seemed. Watch the movie, then scroll down for further discussion.

A comet goes in; a CME comes out. Coincidence? Probably, yes, the sequence was coincidental. The comet disintegrated as much as a million kilometers above the stellar surface. There's no known way that the wispy, vaporous remains of a relatively lightweight comet could cause a billion-ton cloud of hot plasma to fly away from the sun at 400 km/s (the observed speed of the CME). Moreover, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory photographed the eruption that did propel the CME into space. There's no comet in the field of view of this must-see movie.

http://spaceweather.com/images2011/12may11/cometcme_strip.jpg

Bonus: The bright comet pictured above had a dim companion. Can you find it?

[Mostafa]

so the comet was torn apart before it reached sun and didn't really trigger anything?

[Ria]

Thank you, I would be great full for any up dates and related info.
Best wish Ria

G'day All,

Been busy but thought I'd add this video that covers the comet "diving" event and the CME that showed up 6-8 hours afterwards.

It's from "Solar Watcher's" Youtube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/SolarWatcher) (direct link to video included for pad users):

where did they all go?

[cheez_2806]

I just finishing watching the video Jumproom to Mars. Bill mentioned that the sun doesn't work the way how the school teaches. Then how does it really work?? is it what they say online that its not powered from the core? or is there more to it or something completely different??

Thanks~

G'day All,

Series of pretty solid Kp index 6 events yesterday.

http://projectavalon.net/forum4/attachment.php?attachmentid=7793&d=1306638372

Just making note of them for reference as geomagnetic disturbances have been linked as possible contributory factors to earth quakes etc.
Sun spot 1226 is producing C and M-class flares (http://www.solarham.com/) and worth watching as it swings around (http://spaceweather.com/).

Kind Regards, :yo:
Panopticon

Addendum.
There has been a continuation of the disturbance in the geomagnetic field as shown by another Kp 6 in the last 3 hours (http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/today.html).

march 30th magnetic anomaly

[ponda]

There's some significant Comet(?) Elenin and planetary alignments coming up over the next week or so May 31 - June 7, that might be worth keeping an eye on.The Sun has started to get very active now.Elenin aligns with the Sun,Mercury,Venus and Mars over this period.But not Earth

You can check the alignments here:

[jcocks]

It's funny that NASA has been making a big deal about a lot of the planetary alignments that are happening around now, while also stating that it isn't a big deal... Sort of like a pimary school teacher saying "wow kids - look at that! Isn't that interesting?"....

Fishy.

Could be the sun-gate is open and at that particular time it faces the Earth.

Only male whales sing, and they sing when communicating with other males only, not for females, according to a new research. Will have to look it up again, to see the details, and maybe if I find a connection with this.

¤=[Post Update]=¤


What I am about to post may be a hoax and it might not. I found this info on another forum and the poster there found it on a 3rd forum still.


Whistleblower that works with NASA...
Alert This Confirms Many Fears....
This sensitive material dated 3/15/2010 at 4:30PM ET USA.
Background....I found this to be credible and I want to share ASAP.
What follows is an extract from a busy forum where someone identified himself as
a "contractor" for NASA. He has decided to warn people and created a format
to share what he knows of the anomalies in the SUN right now and what "he" and his family are about to do to protect themselves.
They live somewhere near Houston TX, USA.
Please do not judge ME from "his words". I simple want to share valuable information for our community.
The players:
mandle/honiker is a user that captured Q&A format
Sickscent is the anonymous resource.
*** His answers are in "Black Bold" and might speak volumes about the truth.
Watch this 42 min video first...

Re: The FLUFFY MAGNETIC RIBBON NEMESIS of the ELECTRIC UNIVERSE

Quote
Sickscent says: We live in the physical universe of polarity. The basis of physicality is the constant oscillation of duality, where balance is perfection. But balance is a paradox because the only place for perfect balance to exist is singularity points reciding at the moment that the oscillation changes direction.

Here's a summary of OP's comments (in bold) from
I took Sickscent's and added the rest of OP's statements, except for the part about the AC id from his iphone. I also deleted the redundancies from people's quotes:

HERE IS THE OPs RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS SO PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE THREAD!!!!
I work for a NASA contractor and handle the video conferencing sessions between JSC and other facilities. Everybody always wants to see a link. Well, everything talked about in these vc's is top secret - so there's obviously not a link. I love my family and need my job so I'm not gonna tell you much that would endanger those either. I work for Boeing. All I can tell you is there is a LOT of interesting **** happening. The moon is NOT crashing - but it doesn't need to. There is a reason so many are sending birds up to watch the Sun - and it's not cause we just would like to know more about the Sun.

We'll start here and I'll respond how and when I can.

So is everything going to start coming apart at the seems now? And, are you referring to natural disasters, or imminent contact?

Sorry for the delay - had a meeting.
Natural occurances.

How many would you say are 'in the know'?
How is it you are able to keep it quiet?

This isn't about a "2012" senario. I haven't heard anybody acknowledge that timeline. It's easy to keep quiet, most people think NASA is hiding something anyway. In the know- It's hard to tell because how how many conferences take place between us, ESA, and others. Not every piece of the picture is being discussed at every conference either. Just what affects that agency or department.

seriously. why dont you just tell us WTF is going on with the sun already. Is it going to **** on us with a CME?? Are Aliens using it as a vehicle to enter our universe and come thru??? Is it burning out? are we going to freeze to death? WTF OP JUST SAY IT

Aliens, per se, have not been involved. The Sun IS involved.


invisible threads shall we say connected from the earth to the sun!
Like the kind of invisible threads that show up in digital pictures between earth and other planets?

Those are an artifact of how the data is being converted not threads.

Does NASA think the sun is going to become extremely active, more than usual? Are they afraid of damaging CME's?
Thanks in advance.

NASA has already acknowledged this. They came out late last year and revised downward what they had previously acknowledged. It isn't 'actually' turning out that way.

Does it have to do with Mars?

My group has only handled conferences regarding 'near earth' projects and interest. I haven't been privy to any info about Mars. But I haven't heard anything in the 'halls' like gets posted on here all the time - either.


i am sure it is about the solar pulse thing that would take out the techno grid.

The grid is a big concern.

It's obviously not about the end of the world in 2012 at least. Otherwise your job would be your last concern.

Nobody I have been involved with believes 'officially' the 2012 timeline.


Its not just the sun exhibiting different "behavior" several planets in our solar system now have significant magnetic fields that were practically non-existent before, and I think there are gravitational perturbations being measured that again were previously non-existent.

Like I said, many of you are very close to being right.


something to do with energy coming from the center of the galaxy.
sun will react to it in a paranormal way.


The Sun is already reacting to 'forces' we can't see.

super nova? so what happened in the 2012 movie could occur but not on that timeline?

Haven't heard it put in terms of a super nova. A lot can happen that would (is) bad which would be far from a super nova.

I wish to exchange a few words with this fellow from NASA, as he seems to be withholding information. Anyone has the exact place where this first originated? I mean, the exact place where this NASA guy answered the questions?

.

because this dark energy is hitting the left Stereo before the right stereo and earth it gives you an approximate triangulation in that direction, this dark energy isn't sun related or it would relate to the spin of the sun. This might be coming from outside the Galaxy, the question is what and where...

Dark Hole in that direction?

or...
http://cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/b/0/0/96/1/AAAAC_7s3pYAAAAAAJYeYA.jpg?v=1260324572000

This might be a start...


A NASA-whistleblower has been warning of imminent Gamma Ray Bursts or Electromagnetic Pulses from our sun based on interference it's receiving from a massive interstellar cloud radiating from the centre of our galaxy.

This is the same cloud that David Wilcock was discussing at the Awake & Aware conference in L.A. late last year.

In his mesmerising presentation, he discussed distinct and noticeable changes in the magnetic/radiational data from our neighbouring planets in the solar system that emanate from our solar system's interaction with this encroaching interstellar cloud, it's this same cloud that's been affecting light output from various neighbouring stars. Hence NASA's blowing whistle. link (http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?noframes;read=168906)

What David hears, Kerry usually hears the same whispers...

[greybeard]

The massive interstellar cloud is also talked about by David Sereda on Coast to Coast am

I have posted this video several time but it seems to be coming more and more relevant.
David Sereda is well known in UFO circles but is also a scientist and very believable.

Its a question of trying to join the dots between, near extinction events, spirituality, raising of consciousness, evolution, cycles. the Sun.
in other words the works.

In all I feel positive about whatever is coming out way.

I wish to exchange a few words with this fellow from NASA, as he seems to be withholding information. Anyone has the exact place where this first originated? I mean, the exact place where this NASA guy answered the questions?

Onyx, the original came from GLP http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message1005905/pg1 The title of the thread is 'All I can say is, many of you are close!!!!'



A synopsis dated April 1, 2011 from page 102 of the original thread in answer to someone asking to sum up the previous 101 pages.

"I will try.

Once upon a time, there was a contractor who worked for Boeing. He was apparently a mid level worker who overheard NASA scientists supposedly getting panicked about changes to the sun and other space anomalies.

None of this info. was made public, but it apparently freaked the Boeing contractor out bad enough, that he bugged out with his family to go live in the hills.

The earth is supposedly going to go through some "fluff" out in space as we slowly orbit our galactic center. This fluff is supposed to affect the earth in unpredictable and dangerous ways. I never did get exactly what is going to happen though. I don't think anyone knows.

It could be flares or comets or some other space doom. The original timeline called for it to happen last June, but as you can see, we are all still here playing on GLP. So , you can draw your own conclusions. Maybe it will happen soon, maybe not at all, maybe the OP was playing a game.

Who knows?, But it did make for some fascinating reading at the time."

Hi there id like to share something with u for you to consider....reason for what u have stated is that it was the whales that were bringing it in with their song and its vibration ....they came or were brought here from the pleiades...their spiritual gift and purpose for their song and vibration was to "hold" the memory the seas and all that was in it including the rocks and probalbly more because many kingdoms of earth were or had been put to sleep after the grids of earth were shut down.. their song and its resonance held the memory or assised to maintain it untill the kingdoms were reawakened and ready again for their knowing this is taking place all over the earth in many other ways with all kingdoms on earth of which the human race is but one, and is essentially what we call ascension ...blessings

From Spaceweather.com today:


SUNDIVING COMET: Today, the solar system has one less comet. During the late hours of July 5th, an icy unnamed comet dove into the sun and disintegrated. The comet's last hours were recorded by coronagraphs onboard the the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO):

http://spaceweather.com/swpod2011/06jul11/cometdive_strip.jpg

The comet was probably a member of the Kreutz sungrazer family. Named after a 19th century German astronomer who studied them in detail, Kreutz sungrazers are fragments from the breakup of a giant comet at least 2000 years ago. Several of these fragments pass by the sun and disintegrate every day. Most are too small to see but occasionally a big fragment like this one attracts attention.

NASA's STEREO-A and -B spacecraft also recorded the event, and they are beaming their data back to Earth now. In a few days we'll have high-res movies of a comet's death plunge from three points of view: SOHO, STEREO-A and STEREO-B. Stay tuned.

The impact was followed by 2 or 3 CME's that are probably earth-bound.

Unfortunately, at this time SolarSoft has not updated its charts, so I do not know what magnitude these CME's were.

Interesting comment from Mitch Battros today:


Sunspot Region 1244 Continues To Act Out
Mitch Battros - Earth Changes Media

Solar storm activity has ramped up a bit. Not in what would be considered a normal fashion. Coronal hole activity has become unexpected spewing considerable charged particles in the way of CMEs (coronal mass ejections).

In addition, sunspot region 1244 has been active. What is unusual is instrument readings show low C-class activity, however, it is manifesting M-class strength as it hits the Earth's magnetic field. I believe this to be two-fold. 1) The Earth's magnetic field is weakening 2) This period of the Sun's long term cycle - this is to say not within the normal 11 year cycle, but within perhaps it 1,200 year cycle. However, it certainly could be a 23,000-year cycle.

This recent CME is expected to hit the Earth's magnetic field late tonight or early tomorrow. It will be a second wave following the coronal hole release. Watch for increased earth changes activity within the next 48 hours. This may come in the form of hurricanes, tornadoes, extreme weather, earthquakes, or volcanic activity.

My own research has shown the high probability of large Mag EQ's following the impact of sun-diving Comets as well as during active Solar Wind Storms.... heads up!

[olgraybear]

Thanks Morningsong, very impressive work,
and thanks for keeping a watch out on this,

I for one would love to hear any more if you come across it. Hopefully others here on this forum
would too.

[Davidallany]

Nibiru is hiding behind the Sun, just waiting for the right time to come out, soon now.

[Darla Ken Pearce]

Pretty exciting. I love watching these activities around the sun! Thanks to those who are posting videos and pictures! Much love! xoxoxox

[aqr]

For a while i have been observing this daily event without comment, because i thought no, just my imagination. But now i can say that within the last month or so, sunset has moved laterally over 25 degrees from east to northeast, at least from my points of reference, which are fixed since they are my house windows.

[Rocky_Shorz]

According to SolarSoft there was a Filament Eruption this morning, and I quote, "Comet trigger?"

http://www.lmsal.com/solarsoft/latest_events/

And the electron flux has gone wacko again.....

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/elec_3d.html

I think that the sundiving comets (along with other kinds of events) do affect sun activity/ EQ activity. Try googling and many events do pair up quite remarkably, for example, try March 13th, 2010; Oct 21, 2010; Dec 13-22, 2010...

caused a lot of activity after this one too...

[MorningSong]

Yep....

The Kermadec Quake hit just after I posted my observations.

15 flares on the 7th; 7 flares on the 8th; 10-hour Eruption, C-Flare Flurry and Filament Lift-off with a Halo CME on the 8th-9th.

Then the Japan Quake on the 10th.

The Electron Flux has been acting up in the AM for quite some time:

And right now we are in a Solar Storm:

oh...and here's the latest from Spaceweather.com:


INCOMING CME: A coronal mass ejection (CME) that billowed away from sunspot 1247 on July 9th could hit Earth's magnetic field on July 12th. Because the CME was not squarely Earth-directed and is not traveling at great speed, only minor geomagnetic storming is expected when the cloud arrives. Nevertheless, high-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras.

The explosion that launched the CME was recorded by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO):

The explosion that launched the CME was recorded by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO):

The movie is a composite of several extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wavelengths, invisible to the human eye but apparent to SDO's bank of EUV telescopes. Different colors trace different temperatures of solar plasma, mostly in the range 1 to 2 million K (blue to yellow); these data are invaluable to researchers working to understand the physics of solar explosions. Launched little more than a year ago, SDO is only beginning its investigations. One conclusion, however, is already clear: solar activity is beautiful.

[panopticon]

G'day All,

Follow up information available from NASA on June 7th 'Dark Fireworks' (http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2011/11jul_darkfireworks/) event.


Earth-orbiting satellites detected a flash of X-rays coming from the western edge of the solar disk. Registering only "M" (for medium) on the Richter scale of solar flares, the blast at first appeared to be a run-of-the-mill eruption--that is, until researchers looked at the movies.

"We'd never seen anything like it," says Alex Young, a solar physicist at the Goddard Space Flight Center. "Half of the sun appeared to be blowing itself to bits.

"IN terms of raw power, this really was just a medium-sized eruption," says Young, "but it had a uniquely dramatic appearance caused by all the inky-dark material. We don't usually see that."

Solar physicist Angelos Vourlidas of the Naval Research Lab in Washington DC calls it a case of "dark fireworks."

"The blast was triggered by an unstable magnetic filament near the sun's surface," he explains. "That filament was loaded down with cool plasma, which exploded in a spray of dark blobs and streamers."

The plasma blobs were as big as planets, many larger than Earth. They rose and fell ballistically, moving under the influence of the sun's gravity like balls tossed in the air, exploding "like bombs" when they hit the stellar surface.

Some blobs, however, were more like guided missiles. "In the movies we can see material 'grabbed' by magnetic fields and funneled toward sunspot groups hundreds of thousands of kilometers away," notes Young.

SDO also detected a shadowy shock wave issuing from the blast site. The 'solar tsunami' propagated more than halfway across the sun, visibly shaking filaments and loops of magnetism en route.
Long-range action has become a key theme of solar physics since SDO was launched in 2010. The observatory frequently sees explosions in one part of the sun affecting other parts. Sometimes one explosion will trigger another ... and another ... with a domino sequence of flares going off all around the star.

"The June 7th blast didn't seem to trigger any big secondary explosions, but it was certainly felt far and wide," says Young.

It's tempting to look at the movies and conclude that most of the exploded material fell back--but that wouldn't be true, according to Vourlidas. "The blast also propelled a significant coronal mass ejection (CME) out of the sun's atmosphere."

He estimates that the cloud massed about 4.5 x1015 grams, placing it in the top 5% of all CMEs recorded in the Space Age. For comparison, the most massive CME ever recorded was 1016 grams, only a factor of ~2 greater than the June 7th cloud. The amount of material that fell back to the sun on June 7th was approximately equal to the amount that flew away, Vourlidas says.

As remarkable as the June 7th eruption seems to be, Young says it might not be so rare. "In fact," he says, "it might be downright common."

Before SDO, space-based observatories observed the sun with relatively slow cadences and/or limited fields of view. They could have easily missed the majesty of such an explosion, catching only a single off-center snapshot at the beginning or end of the blast to hint at what actually happened.

If Young is right, more dark fireworks could be in the offing. Stay tuned.

Here comes another one...

8707



CORONAL HOLE: A dark gap in the sun's atmosphere--a "coronal hole"--is spewing solar wind toward Earth. Estimated time of arrival: July 19th. This morning, UV-filtered telescopes onboard NASA's Solar Dynamics Obervatory photographed the opening:
Coronal holes are places where the sun's magnetic field opens up and allows hot gas to escape. A million mile-per-hour stream of solar wind flowing from this hole could spark polar geomagnetic storms when it arrives early next week. High-latitude sky watchers should be prepared (http://spaceweatherphone.com/) for auroras

Hello, I am the SickScent that wrote the original piece. I haven't gone through this thread, but will do so today.

As updates to the gentleman from Boeing that started the research. Well, he had moved out of his home after 'retiring' from Boeing last year. I think it was in summer. He moved north of Houston in a rural area with his wife.

His initial thoughts, as was seen in this material, was that something would happen near the end of 2010. Again, this was just a guess on his part, and a was mentioned a number of times in respect to 'time-frame', there was never a specific date, only a window of possibility. The sun's behavior has stumped scientists. It went into an unexpected extended minimum, which in my opinion, had pushed back any window of time at least a year.

I am still in contact with Boeing Guy, but he does not have any information to share. He is now 'out of the loop'. He had a colleague that was feeding him tidbits. I can't remember if she worked for NASA or Boeing. About 3 months ago or so, she ended up resigning as well, and left her very good paying job to live with her parents. She was not willing to give Boeing Guy a specific answer as to why she decided to do this.

She was Boeing Guy's last inside contact, so now he is out of the loop.

If anyone has any questions, I can try and answer them for you.

Something is up, the little particles I can normally see in sunlight have changed the way they are moving... normally they sort of dart around in a totally random fashion... now they are moving in short bursts leaving distinct straight line trails unlike there normal curved trails...

Just my personal observations.... at least they are still there....:flame:

I can see those as well. About a month ago, they became much more 'active' and a lot more of them. They fill my vision.

¤=[Post Update]=¤

BTW, I hope this is allowed on this forum. I have a website that I have dedicated to these possible changes that are coming, revolving around Fluffy and the changes in the solar system. http://www.sickscent.com/

[Sickscent]

1. We ARE in the cloud, and have been for at least a couple decades or more. It is the dense plasma columns (that can be light years wide/long that are the concern. Energetic solar wide increases have been witnessed over and over in ALL of the planets and their own systems. Although I don't prescribe fully to Hoagland, his research work called Day After Tomorrow shows the scientific evidence of this.

2. There is no declassified information out there that says the dense aspects of the plasma clouds have penetrated our system. Circumstantial evidence abounds, as well as scientific papers, most notably by Dr. Priscilla Frisch, shows that the denser cloud columns were/are on their way, AND THEY DO CHANGE THE CLIMATOLOGY OF ALL PLANETS, AND ALSO LINK TO EVOLUTIONARY CHANGES IN EARTHS LIFEFORMS. This part is generated from matching geological/biological and ice core samples with the timing of the clouds.

3. Boeing Guy warned that certain strange things will be seen. One of those were the increase in solar filaments that were extremely rare. That was directly from Wikipedia, but since then, they have rewritten that and took out how rare they are, as now they are quite common.

4. The plasma clouds are usually kept outside of the solar system by the sun's magnetic field (solar winds). When we enter these clouds, the heliosphere shrinks, and as such, all the planets get closer to interstellar space. That allows more cosmic rays into the solar system. But, when we hit denser plasma cloud columns, they can get through the heliosphere. These dense plasma areas are highly conductive, and can be seen by there powerful magnetic fields. That is what IBEX saw...the magnetic ribbon. The last update from NASA via IBEX was that the magnetic ribbon had a large 'knot' associated with it...and that knot is untying. IMO, that would be because of its interaction with the heliopause (boundary).

What happens is when/if the dense plasma columns get through the heliosphere and enter our solar system? It magnifies the conductive medium of space. Maybe like being completely submerged (for hundreds/thousands of years) in a magnetic flux tube like environment. Basically, linking up electrical charges that are emitted from the sun (excited particles) and producing a constant connection ALL OVER THE SOLAR SYSTEM with plasma exchange, with the sun being the generator. This is the part that can be theorized, but holds highly logical arguments. See the research by the foremost scientist on plasma physics, Dr. Anthony Perrat, of Los Alamos and Jet Propulsion Labs.

For a while i have been observing this daily event without comment, because i thought no, just my imagination. But now i can say that within the last month or so, sunset has moved laterally over 25 degrees from east to northeast, at least from my points of reference, which are fixed since they are my house windows.

Does this mean the earth is tilting more? Or leaning back?

Thanks in advance

The object in the photo from SOHO is not Elenin its Venus. So this object in the photo is behind the sun from our position. If it was Elenin, I would think that due to its size 3-4km, it would be smaller in this photo and it appears this object from the above photo, is likely Venus.
One thing to note however is that when Elenin comes through these orbits, we may see Mercury, Venus the Sun and Elenin line up. Trippy, thanks yall.

Here are the official May 2000 transits for LASCO3:

Important note: These lists pertain ONLY to the SOHO/LASCO C3 camera. They do not in any way correspond to transits of planets in the STEREO/SECCHI data. The STEREO spacecrafts are in a very different orbit to SOHO, and are in a completely different part of the solar system, and so will not witness the below transits at the same time as SOHO does. For information regarding planets in STEREO data, we recommend the "Where is STEREO?" (http://stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov/where.shtml) page, the "STEREO Orbit Tool" (http://secchi.nrl.navy.mil/STEREOorbit/), or the "STEREO Planet Finder" (http://stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov/beacon/planets/) page.


Note also the orientation of the arm holding the Sun-masking disk... sometimes it is rotated 180 degrees...

As some of you guys out there may have noticed, this is (as of right now) the last photogram available from Lasco2 today:

http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/REPROCESSING/Completed/2011/c2/20110720/20110720_1536_c2_512.jpg

This huge Halo CME starts showing just before 10:00 UT and just keeps billowing until the last frame shown above.

So far, I have found nothing-ziltch- on what happened. The CME doesn't look Earth-bound, but that depends on how much of the sun's corona was involved in this huge explosion.

From Spaceweather.com:


BIG SUNSPOTS: The finest display of sunspots since 2006 is underway. Three behemoth sunspot groups are transiting the sun's northern hemisphere, shown here in a July 31st image from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory:

http://spaceweather.com/images2011/31jul11/threebigones_strip.jpg

Among the three, sunspot 1261 is most active. The multi-cored group has a beta-gamma-delta class magnetic field that harbors energy for X-class solar flares. Readers with solar telescopes are encouraged to monitor developments.

SOLAR FLARE: Sunspot AR1261 unleashed a brief but powerful solar flare on July 30th at 0209 UT. Registering M9 on the Richter Scale of Flares, the blast almost crossed the threshold into X-territory (X-class flares are the most powerful kind). NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the flare's extreme ultraviolet flash:

http://spaceweather.com/images2011/30jul11/almostx_strip2.jpg

Because of its brevity, the eruption did not hurl a substantial cloud of material toward Earth. No CME is visible in SOHO coronagraphs. The eruption was not geoeffective, although future eruptions could be as the active region continues to turn toward Earth.

From Mitch Battros' Earth Changing Media Newsletter:


Two M-Class Flares - Unrelated Geomagnetic Storm Already in Effect

On Wednesday July 27th, an M-class flare registering as M1 erupted from sunspot region 1260. From the same region (1260) also produced 6 C-class flares in a pulsating rhythm.

http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs049/1101218008705/img/1441.png

In addition, coronal hole 468 produced a high speed stream of solar winds (charged particles). Today's geomagnetic storm is most likely a combination of several C-class flares, one M-class and CH 468.

Today July 30th, a large M-class flare registering as M9.3 (out of 10) unleashed from sunspot region 1261. This event will not affect the Earth's magnetic field for 48 to 72 hours. As a result, the Earth is most likely to experience ongoing effects in the way of extreme weather which includes hurricanes, tornadoes, wind shears, straight-line winds, earthquake and volcanic activity.

http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs049/1101218008705/img/1444.png

Currently there are six sunspot regions. Only regions 1260 and 1261 indicate continued solar activity producing C-class and M-class flares. However, the farside of the Sun shows twelve (12) sunspot regions, five of which will be rotating around the western limb within 24 hours.

[MorningSong]

Update from Spaceweather.com:


EARTH-DIRECTED BLAST: Magnetic fields above sunspot 1261 erupted this morning at 0619 UT, producing a long-duration M1-class solar flare. At the peak of the action, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded a surge of extreme ultraviolet radiation around the sunspot:

http://spaceweather.com/images2011/02aug11/m1_strip.jpg

The blast also hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) almost directly toward Earth. Space-based coronagraph images from SOHO and from STEREO-A show the cloud racing away from the sun at almost 900 km/s. Minor to moderate geomagnetic storms are possible when the CME arrives on or about August 5th.

Those of You that know me here know I have a fairly intense personal relationship with the Sun...something phenomenal is on the near horizons beyond Our most wildest and wonderful imaginings, imho.

The 'living breathing' Being, Mother Earth, is brewing an alchemical mix that has never been experienced as we know of as to our physical/spiritual experiences here...the Sun, a 'spiritual vortex', is influencing this mix as a magician of light in this newly orchestrated 'power push' by Gaia.

John Lash currently speaks of Mother Earth's own higher timeline that is in a 10 second turbo upgrade which She began in March....We are about 2 seconds into this Higher Alchemical Process...each second being about 110 days in Our Timeline(10 seconds is 3 years), and that is shrinking...the 'shrinking' is my own take on John's Gnostic research and sharing of his own downloads/translations.

The Living Spaceship we are on and are directly/lovingly connected to is on a brand new higher path of Her Very Own...She has punched in the new coordinates and we are on our way. Many new souls are going to be awoken by anomalies that will be occurring beyond any scientific explanation...the Sun's new 'spiritual' influence being integral on this new path

BE the BEST You can Be : )

Update: Another M-class flare:

From Spaceweather.com:


M6-CLASS SOLAR FLARE: Earth orbiting satellites have just detected a significant M6-class solar flare. The source appears to be sunspot 1261. Increased energetic proton fluxes are possible in the vicinity of Earth. Stay tuned for updates.

Fascinating graph of Elevated X-ray Flux:

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/drap/Global.png

And Update on Yesterday's flare and CME:


EARTH-DIRECTED BLAST: Sunspot 1261 erupted on August 2nd at 0619 UT, producing a long-duration M1-class solar flare. At the peak of the event, the sunspot's magnetic canopy was beautifully illuminated by extreme ultraviolet radiation, shown here in an image from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory:

http://spaceweather.com/images2011/02aug11/m1_strip.jpg

The blast hurled a CME almost directly toward Earth. Three spacecraft (SOHO, STEREO-A and STEREO-B) tracked the progress of the expanding cloud. Using data from those three points of view, analysts at the GSFC Space Weather Lab made a 3-dimensional model of the CME. According to their work, the cloud left the sun traveling 900 km/s and should reach Earth on August 5th at 0300 UT plus or minus 7 hours. Polar geomagnetic storms are possible when the CME arrives.

WELL.... we got another M-class flare this morning:

From Spaceweather.com:


STRONG SOLAR ACTIVITY: For the third day in a row, active sunspot 1261 has unleashed a strong M-class solar flare. The latest blast at 0357 UT on August 4th registered M9.3 on the Richter Scale of Flares, almost crossing the threshold into X-territory (X-flares are the most powerful kind). The number of energetic protons around Earth has jumped nearly 100-fold as a result of this event. Stay tuned for updates.

http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/Proton.gif


INCOMING CLOUDS: At least two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are now en route to Earth, propelled toward us by eruptions in the magnetic canopy of sunspot 1261 on August 2nd and 3rd. Analysts at the GSFC Space Weather Lab have just produced a new 3-D model of the advancing CMEs. Click on the image to set the clouds in motion:

http://spaceweather.com/images2011/04aug11/3dcme_strip.jpg

According to the model, Earth's magnetic field will receive a double-strike from the clouds on August 4th at 22:39 UT plus minus 7 hours. Mild to moderate geomagnetic storms are possible when the CMEs arrive.

Thanks, Ineffable Hitchhiker.

It's just impossible for me to stay away from this Sun Passion I have. Don't know why, but I guess that is my mission- to give the "heads up" call.

I would expect more Earth Changing events. Just before the big and quite unexpected Japan quake, there had been a series of M and X flares. Lots of other examples can be found and I am not one to call it all "coincidence".

CME's transmit energy...we are all energy expressed in material....all is effected. SATs out there in space, Earth's Mag field, tectonic plates, lava flows and volcanoes, electric grid, storm systems, plant growth, and our minds as well.... the energy must go somewhere.

Where it will go, We don't know...no way to know, I don't think. All we can do is cross our fingers and get out the tin hats...

@starchild111: I respect the Townhall Forum and have been a member for a long time. Some time ago, Marshall subtracted any support for the person called "Terral". Use you own discression with his info. I always suggest read, research, and research again.

@Thunder24: I did notice the total rush of "particles" in the last photograms... don't know if that is space dust, plasma, or what...but it sure did get pretty crazy there for a while. It does look like a lot of "stuff" was taking a dive right into the path of the CME, though. Opportunistic space critters? lol

From Spaceweather.com:


ONE DOWN, TWO TO GO: As predicted by analysts at the GSFC Space Weather Lab, the first of three CMEs produced by the recent spate of flare activity reached Earth during the late hours of August 4th. The impact was weak and is not expected to produce strong geomagnetic storms. Two more CMEs are still on the way and, as described below, they may have merged into a single cloud that could produce significant storming when they reach Earth on August 5th at 10:00 UT (plus or minus 7 hours). A new model of all 3 CMEs is now available; stay tuned for updates.

From NOAA/ Space Weather Prediction Center:


IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 03/2100Z
to 04/2100Z: Solar activity was high. Region 1261 (N15W49) produced
a M9/2B at 0357Z. This event had associated Type II and Type IV
radio sweeps and a CME with an approximate speed of 2100 km/s in
STEREO A COR-2 imagery. Region 1261 has appeared to decay in the
southern most trailing spots and is classified as a Dai spot class
with a Beta-Gamma-Delta magnetic classification. Region 1263
(N17W18) has been relatively stable, only managing a few C-class
flares. Region 1263 is classified as a Dki spot class with a
Beta-Gamma-Delta magnetic classification. New Region 1266 (N18E38)
was numbered today.

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be
moderate to high. Further M-class activity is expected from Region
1261. Region 1263 has the potential for M-class activity as well.
There continues to be a chance for isolated major flare activity.

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 03/2100Z to 04/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was quiet. The greater than 10 MeV proton flux
at geosynchronous orbit crossed the 10 PFU threshold at 0635Z and
reached a peak of 80.1 PFU at 1030Z. The greater than 100 MeV
proton flux at geosynchronous orbit crossed the 1 PFU threshold at
0510Z and reached a peak of 1.8 PFU at 0740Z. This proton event was
associated with the M9 flare at 0357Z.

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to be at minor to major storm levels with a chance for
severe storm periods as the effects of three CMEs are expected to
impact the Earths geomagnetic field early on 05 August. Active to
minor storm levels are expected on 06 August. Unsettled to active
levels are expected on 07 August.

From Spaceweather.com:


CME IMPACT--NOW: NASA's ACE spacecraft, which measures the speed of the solar wind just upstream of Earth, indicates that a CME impact on our planet is in progress. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras in the hours ahead.

UPDATE: Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab report a strong compression of Earth's magnetosphere in response to the CME impact. "Simulations indicate that the magnetopause separating magnetospheric and solar wind plasma is close to the geosynchronous orbit starting at about 19:20 UT on August 5th. Spacecraft [in these] orbits may be directly exposed to solar wind plasma and magnetic field."

According to the Integrated Spaceweather Analysis System, CME Arrival Prediction, the duration should be for 5 Hours.

Wow. This is all so exciting! As we watch these developments ~ The stock market is crashing big time.

The media just released a massive amount of new information about the crime of U.S. and Truman dropping the atomic bombs on Japan at the end of WW2 and what a crime against humanity with pictures never known about or released prior to this date.

Another Moon has been seen and recorded making the Earth look like it may have two moons instead of just one. Worth watching for further developments. I love that we are seeing these great events coming first, from the sun, as these CME's are blowing Adamantine particles towards earth to enhance and bring about our full consciousness. At long last, this train is pulling out of stationary mode and is now going at warp speed ahead!

We are watching the Greatest Show on Earth right now in this thread! Many thanks to all for keeping us informed! Woo Woo! Let the celebrations begin! xoxoxox

NIGHT-TIME SOLAR RADIO BURST: The M9-class solar flare of August 4th produced a burst of shortwave static so powerful that receivers on Earth picked it up after sunset. "A RadioJove (http://radiojove.gsfc.nasa.gov/) observer in Florida recorded the burst when the sun was 38 degrees below the horizon," reports amateur radio astronomer Thomas Ashcraft. Ashcraft's own radio telescope in New Mexico recorded the event 1 hour and 54 minutes after sunset:

http://www.spaceweather.com/swpod2011/05aug11/ashcraft1_strip.gif (http://www.spaceweather.com/swpod2011/05aug11/ashcraft1_big.gif?PHPSESSID=0lr789vm0ian0lt6tfbtbthii7)
"To my knowledge, receptions like this are very rare," says Ashcraft.
Indeed they are. This event brings to mind the iconic night-time solar radio burst of March 8, 1958. Five radio telescopes at the University of Florida picked up emissions from the sun while observing the planet Jupiter in tthe middle of the night. On the other side of the world, radio astronomers in daylit Australia confirmed that a powerful solar radio burst had taken place at that exact time. The event is described in a 1959 Nature paper (http://www.typnet.net/AJ4CO/Library/FullText/Anomalous%20Night%20Time%20Reception%20of%20a%20Major%20Solar%20Radio%20Burst,%20Smith%20%28Nature,% 201959%29.pdf) by pioneering radio astronomers Alex Smith and Tom Carr. They considered the possibility that solar radio waves might have been reflected by the Moon or carried to the night side of Earth by ionospheric ducting. In the end, they could not conclusively explain what happened and to this day night-time solar radio bursts remain a puzzle


Which gets back to this:




Adventures in Shortwave Radio Research

The work of John H. Nelson is the second big dot to connect in understanding this process of how planetary alignments relate to solar activity and thus geomagnetic activity on Earth. Nelson was a shortwave radio researcher who worked for RCA (Radio Corporation of America) during the 1950s and 60s. He was tasked with finding a way to predict days when shortwave signals would be disrupted. (Remember this was before satellite communication, so there was a certain interest in maintaining these radio connections between the continents.) Even at this point, scientists had noticed the link between sunspot activity and the geomagnetic activity that affected shortwave radio transmissions, but they had no accurate means to predict when solar activity was likely to break out. Nelson studied the sunspot patterns for a number of years until he grew frustrated by his lack of progress in making long-range predictions.

Nelson then began to look at past solar storms where radio transmissions were wiped out for several days, hoping to find some sort of reoccurring pattern that might explain why these days, and not others, were special. On a whim, he decided to test an idea about the position of the planets, and used the date March 23rd 1940, the date of a significant geomagnetic storm, for his initial test date. He looked up the positions of the planets for this particular day and to his surprise noticed something very interesting.



What he found was that on this day several planets lined up with each other. He discovered that Mercury was at opposition with Jupiter on March 22nd, and then in conjunction with Saturn on March 26th. On March 24, one of the worst days in terms of radio transmission, Venus was square to Saturn. Nelson described this radio outage on March 23rd 1940 as being the "Rosetta Stone" of forecasting solar activity. This was just the start. He later discovered many more idiosyncrasies with the way the planets teased solar activity out of the Sun.

Nelson discovered that solar activity was more likely to occur during some conjunction, opposition or square between an inner and outer planet which he referred to as 'hard' angles. This was usually the initiating factor in the solar storms he observed and predicted. He also noted that other harmonics of these 'hard' angles served to increase solar activity as well. By 'harmonic' I mean taking 180 degrees and dividing it by integers. So angles like 180/2 = 90, 180/3 = 60, 180/4 = 45, 180/5 = 36 and so on... Even multiples of these harmonics such as 75 degrees (15 x 5) or 135 (45 x 3) and others could play a role too. Why harmonics were important to this process is unclear and probably something Nelson was hoping future research would shed light on, but nonetheless these were the observations he made.

He noticed that in the absence of any 'hard' angles, the trine angles (120 and 240 degrees) tended to stabilize solar activity, making good days for shortwave transmissions. The trine configuration of Saturn and Jupiter was especially significant in this regard. But he also noted that if a trine angle corresponded with a 'hard' angle between an inner and outer planet on the same day, it would usually magnify solar activity.

Nelson discovered that when multiple planets fell into harmonic relations this seemed to add to the solar activity initiated by a 'hard' angle. But these harmonics by themselves, without a 'hard' angle, usually did nothing. Likewise, a hard angle by itself without any added harmonics usually did nothing as well. Nelson also discovered that a planet's ascending and descending nodes played a role in setting up solar storms too. From his book Cosmic Patterns he writes:

The major storms analyzed in the following discussions will often contain more than one hard angle and numerous harmonics. Sometimes several hard angles with their associated harmonics follow one another in quite rapid succession, resulting in major storms, some of which can be prolonged for this reason.

The planet Mercury is of major importance. One would expect this since it is the closest planet to the sun and has the greatest orbital velocity. (It also has considerable gravitational effects when at perihelion, however I do not wish to get into the area of gravitation since my prime interest is in angles.) I think it is safe to say that in at least 90 percent of the cases Mercury is the trigger planet. The planets slower than Mercury can be all set up on a major pattern but a storm usually does not begin until Mercury moves into a hard angle with one of them, or as a harmonic to two that are already associated in a hard angle.

Simple, uncontaminated conjunctions, squares, and oppositions involving only two planets can usually be ignored. Simultaneous multiple harmonics are the key. There are so many hard angles made by Mercury and Venus because of their velocity that, if every hard angle presaged a storm, shortwave radio would have a very difficult time surviving.

Another rule is that the intensity of a storm will be greater if a planet making a hard angle is at, or close to, either its nodal point or perihelion point in space.

[...]

At perihelion a planet is at that point in its orbit which brings it closest to the sun. Nodes are the places in a planet's orbit at which it crosses the plane of the Earth's orbit which means, of course, that the planet is crossing the ecliptic. There are two nodes, known as the ascending node, the point at which the planet crosses from below the ecliptic to above the ecliptic, and the descending node (180 degrees away), at which point the planet crosses from above to below the ecliptic. My research throughout the years has shown that these points in space are very important in this work.

The research relating to the nodes has revealed that the point halfway between the nodes is also a very sensitive area in space - apparently as important as the nodes themselves. At this point in space the planet pauses for an instant in the motion that is taking it away from the ecliptic, and then starts back again towards the ecliptic. Perhaps in doing this it creates a torque in the magnetic field of the sun. This can be demonstrated by dragging a canoe paddle through still water, then suddenly reversing the paddle; an eddy is created in the water. Could the same thing take place in the sun's outer atmosphere?
Here's an example of one prediction he made for a severe solar storm that occurred on August 30, 1960. This planetary arrangement involves all nine planets at harmonic angles to each other.

© American Federation of Astrologers
Extremely severe disturbance on August 30, 1960

This is a remarkable example of a very strong simultaneous multiple harmonic involving several planets. An examination of this diagram shows us that Mercury was in conjunction with Pluto at the same time that it was in opposition to Earth and harmonically related to Mars and Jupiter, being 120 degrees ahead of Mars and 120 degrees behind Jupiter. This of course placed the Earth also in a strong harmonic relation, since it was 180 degrees from Mercury and Pluto. Mercury also made a 45 degree angle with Venus, a 60 degree angle with Neptune, and a 15 degree angle with Uranus. At the beginning of the storm, Mercury also made a 135 degree contact with Saturn. All nine planets in the solar system were involved in this arrangement. Shortwave signals were completely blacked out during the night of the 30th.

This storm was predicted officially on July 19th with the statement that a·complete blackout would take place on August 30th.
The nice thing about Nelson's findings is that all of these factors are predictable and can be calculated far into the future. This suggests that it may be possible to predict solar storms via computer algorithms. In fact, I discovered one ham radio enthusiast who attempted to use part of Nelson's Theory in his own computer program (http://www.eham.net/articles/8828) to calculate a 'Nelson index' for each day. It's a crude attempt, and it doesn't take into account all of the factors the Nelson discovered, but it seems that he did have some preliminary success at accounting for past solar activity. Nelson believed his method brought about a 85% success rate in predicting future solar storms.

Despite Nelson's many successes at predicting solar storms, which he mentions in his book, there do seem to be some factors missing from his work. I think it would be worthwhile to consider some of James McCanney's ideas in light of Nelson's discoveries. The first missing factor is the influence of the Moon and how it interacts with the Earth-Sun connection. According to McCanney, when the Moon passes in front of the Earth (during a New Moon), there's a build-up of charge which then gets dumped into the ionosphere after the Moon passes. McCanney points out that the chance for hurricanes and cyclones greatly increases just after the passing of a New Moon. (Yes, cyclone-type storms like tornadoes and hurricanes are likely electric phenomena (http://www.sott.net/articles/show/229191-Tornado-A-Natural-Charged-Sheath-Vortex).) The Moon by itself may have little influence over solar activity compared to the planets, but it seems to have quite an effect on Earth.



The other factor missing from Nelson's work is comets. Should we factor alignments of comets in with the rest of the planets? To me this seems like a no-brainer since some comets can actually be the size of moons or planets, not to mention the fact that comets appear to be much more electrically active too. McCanney mentions several examples of comet alignments and their effect on Earth in his book Planet-X, Comets and Earth Changes. It seems that comets don't need to directly impact the Earth to create 'changes' in our environment.

We recently passed through an alignment with Comet Elenin around March 15th (http://www.sott.net/articles/show/225704-Comet-Elenin-Update-). There was also massive solar and geomagnetic activity (http://spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=10&month=03&year=2011) around this time along with a major earthquake in Japan (http://www.sott.net/articles/show/225693-Massive-8-9-magnitude-quake-hits-Japan-Eastern-coastline-inundated-by-multiple-tsunamis) and earthquakes elsewhere (http://www.sott.net/articles/show/225675-China-Earthquake-Deadly-Temblor-Kills-at-Least-22) too. Comet Elenin came into alignment with Mars towards the end of April, and this month turned out to be one of the most active months for tornadoes (http://www.sott.net/articles/show/229142-US-The-Tornado-Epidemic-Of-April-2011) in US history. There does seem to be a strong correlation between solar activity, severe weather, earthquakes, and volcanoes; and it appears that planet (and comet) positions play a large role in setting up this solar activity. Further data and research is obviously needed to draw any definite conclusions, but this seems to be a good working hypothesis for the moment.

One wonders if alignments with first magnitude stars or large cosmic radio sources might have certain effects as well. Perhaps once we understand the impact of these nearby influences we'll be able to understand the finer influences received from the cosmos too.

Now, comets are fine in promoting the theory... however, what's missing is the position of that whale of a stellar body: That Brown dwarf twin to our Sun.

Where is it?

[Jean-Marie]

The brown dwarf is just behind Elenin. Elenin is proceeding the brown dwarf. Watch Stereo behind and we should start seeing something soon!

[Hervé]

Thanks for the input Jean-Marie .

However that theory doesn't hold much water as discussed in the Elenin thread, starting at post #650 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?16101-Proof-that-Comet-Elenin-doesn-t-exists--We-have-Nibiru-instead-&p=272050&viewfull=1#post272050).

What belongs to this thread is our Sun's dwarf twin getting it going berserk. Hence, finding where that dwarf is in the sky could lead to better predictions as far as earth quakes, CMEs and other manifestations go.

M-CLASS SOLAR FLARE: Sunspot 1263 produced an impulsive M3-class (http://www.spaceweather.com/glossary/flareclasses.html?PHPSESSID=3u2c2ltiaon3j9cf79ta0re376) solar flare on August 8th at 1810 UT. In Falmouth, Maine, amateur astronomer John Stetson happened to be observing the sun and he caught the sunspot in mid-eruption:

http://www.spaceweather.com/swpod2011/08aug11/John-Stetson1_strip.jpg (http://www.spaceweather.com/submissions/large_image_popup.php?image_name=John-Stetson-solar_080811_ar1263_864_3_1312833600.jpg)
"Perhaps we will get some more auroras this week," Stetson wrote hopefully. Alas, no. Although this eruption did hurl a CME into space, the plasma cloud does not appear to be heading for Earth. Further analysis could reverse this conclusion, however, so stay tuned for updates.
WEEKEND AURORAS: A widespread display of auroras erupted late Friday, Aug. 5th, when a double-CME hit Earth's magnetic field and sparked a G4-category (http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/NOAAscales/index.html#GeomagneticStorms) geomagnetic storm.

"Although not the most intense auroras I've ever seen, this one is definitely up there on my favorites list," he says.
The show was not restricted to Canada. Northern Lights spilled across the border into the United States as far south as Oregon (http://www.spaceweather.com/submissions/large_image_popup.php?image_name=Bill-Ross-08-05-11---Aurora-from-Adams-Oregon_1312818653.jpg), Utah (http://www.spaceweather.com/submissions/large_image_popup.php?image_name=Scott-Lowther-DSC_1301_1312683637.jpg), Colorado (http://www.spaceweather.com/submissions/large_image_popup.php?image_name=Jimmy-Westlake-Aurora2862-080511_1312607633.jpg), and Nebraska (http://www.spaceweather.com/submissions/large_image_popup.php?image_name=Jerry-D.-Chab-IMG_1387a_1312604411.jpg). (Note: The faint red lights (http://www2.gi.alaska.edu/ScienceForum/ASF4/456.html) photographed in Nebraska are typical of low-latitude auroras during major geomagnetic storms.) Observers in Europe as far south as England, Germany and Poland also witnessed a fine display.

"Massive X6.9 Solar Flare:
The largest solar flare of Cycle 24 just took place at 08:05 UTC and it registered a whopping X6.9. The source was Sunspot 1263 which is nearing the Western Limb. Because of its location, any large explosions may not be fully earth directed. When watching new video images from the STEREO website, it appears the CME is less intense than the one caused by the M9.3 flare from last week. A minor S1 Radiation Storm is in progress. More information to come."

I wonder if there is a connection with the effects of these solar flares hitting the earth and the behaviour of humans in direct contact with these emissions. Just pondering the rise in violence and the rise in CME intensity hitting us. Afte rall we are said to be effected by the Moon etc Could explain a few things.

[Floor]

Hello Philipbbg,
When there is a big solar flare (can be an M flare), we notice in our family fatigue and often a rise in unpleasant emotions/irritations. But when the flare hits the earth a few days later - an electromagnetic storm, then we become very peaceful, loving and positive and energetic. And it seems as if afther the storm whe can better behold such states. Especially after the last one on about last friday/saterday, this was very remarkable.I wonder if more people notice this. This morning (Netherlands - sorry for my english) we were all very tired :) I wondered wat the reason could be - and then I saw about the X flare. Thanks for the question, I am very interested in the aswers of others.

MAJOR SOLAR FLARE: This morning at 0805 UT, sunspot 1263 produced an X7-class (http://www.spaceweather.com/glossary/flareclasses.html?PHPSESSID=ib54givul7pfjd819d8k39ov86) solar flare--only the third X-flare of new Solar Cycle 24 and the most powerful so far. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured the explosion's extreme ultraviolet flash:

http://www.spaceweather.com/images2011/09aug11/x7_strip2.jpg (http://www.spaceweather.com/swpod2011/09aug11/x7.mov?PHPSESSID=ib54givul7pfjd819d8k39ov86)
The brunt of the explosion was not Earth directed. Nevertheless, a minor proton storm is in progress around our planet, which could affect satellites in high-altitude orbits. Also, radiation from flare created waves of ionization in Earth's upper atmosphere, briefly disrupting communications at some VLF and HF radio frequencies.
SOHO coronagraphs show a CME emerging (http://www.spaceweather.com/images2011/09aug11/cme_c3.gif?PHPSESSID=ib54givul7pfjd819d8k39ov86) from the blast site. The cloud will probably miss Earth.

Hey guys, I just found this you tuber called Dr. Keith Strong (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0cgAV0wv7c&feature=player_embedded#at=220). He's been doing a quick daily summation of what is going on with the sun and does a great job in explaining all of the charts and graphs in layman's terms, as well as giving a short forecast as to what to expect in the coming days. He's really good, have a look.

Hello Philipbbg,
When there is a big solar flare (can be an M flare), we notice in our family fatigue and often a rise in unpleasant emotions/irritations. But when the flare hits the earth a few days later - an electromagnetic storm, then we become very peaceful, loving and positive and energetic. And it seems as if afther the storm whe can better behold such states. Especially after the last one on about last friday/saterday, this was very remarkable.I wonder if more people notice this. This morning (Netherlands - sorry for my english) we were all very tired :) I wondered wat the reason could be - and then I saw about the X flare. Thanks for the question, I am very interested in the aswers of others.

when the flare erupts, I get migraines and suffer disorientation, most times. Right at the exact minute the flare erupts, is when it begins and sort of 'peaks'..

When the flare hits the planet, if it is strong X class, then I get blown out of my body if I happen to be sleeping at the time. Or, one could say that I expand to full size as I slip out.

It is similar to what, for lack of a more recent description... what Jill Bolte Taylor speaks of in her TED talk.

VENUS AND THE SOLAR STORM: (Note: No planets were harmed in the production of this movie.) Yesterday, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory witnessed a spectacular explosion on the sun that seemed to pass perilously close to Venus. Did the cloudy planet survive? Play the movie for answers:

Credit: Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, C2 coronagraph

As the movie shows, the CME passed harmlessly. There was no collision, and it wasn't even close. Although Venus seems to be near the sun, the planet is actually more than 100 million kilometers away. The two bodies are "in conjunction" this week as Venus moves almost directly behind the sun. Because of this arrangement, more CME-Venus conjunctions are possible in the days ahead.

(my heart is still racing at the thought of Venus getting zapped and not surviving...duh!)

[Seikou-Kishi]

Venus is conjunct with the sun an awful lot; it has what astrologers call an inferior orbit, in that it orbits the sun closer to it than Earth does so that from the perspective of the Earth, Venus is never very far away from it. Venus is said to be in conjunction with the Sun when a) Venus is directly between the Sun and the Earth (the 'Inferior Conjunction'), or b) Venus is behind the Sun such that the Sun is directly between Earth and Venus (the 'Superior Conjunction'). In any astrological chart using a contemporary Sun and Venus, Venus can only get around 47°-48° away from the Sun because of that inferior orbit, which means as soon as it reaches that upper limit, it begins to move back on itself from a geocentric viewpoint, which is called 'retrograde' by astrologers.

Because of that, conjunctions between the Sun and Venus are very common, but I cannot guess why such a conjunction would have any effect on the sun such as causing coronal mass ejections. Rather, I would suggest that Venus is most likely to have an effect upon the sun when it reaches its perihelion, that is, the point in its orbit at which it is closest to the sun, which is independent of Earth's relative position.

Another way in which position might bring some effect to bear on the sun is when two planets are heliocentrically opposed, that is, when two planets line up so that they form a straight line with the Sun in the centre. One such recent aspect, which has since broken, was the heliocentric opposition of Jupiter and Saturn. It is often said that all the planets exist within the Sun's gravitational field, but it is equally true to say that the sun exists within the gravitational fields of its satellites, such that the gravitational fields of Jupiter and Saturn, being heliocentrically opposed, were pulling the Sun in different directions. That would engender coronal mass ejections, because the Sun's stability is a careful play off between its expansive heat and its constrictive gravity; with Jupiter and Saturn pulling on it from opposite directions, they could diminish the effect of the Sun's own gravity just enough for a CME to occur.

In summary, I wouldn't consider geocentric conjunctions to have any effect whatsoever upon the Sun, since such conjunctions are illusions created by our point of view, rather, I would suggest that people look out for the perihelions of the planets and heliocentric oppositions, whereby two planets may play tug of war with the sun.

"August 18, 2011: For the first time, a spacecraft far from Earth has turned and watched a solar storm engulf our planet. The movie, released today during a NASA press conference, has galvanized solar physicists, who say it could lead to important advances in space weather forecasting.
“The movie sent chills down my spine,” says Craig DeForest of the Southwest Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado. "It shows a CME swelling into an enormous wall of plasma and then washing over the tiny blue speck of Earth where we live. I felt very small.”"

For a while i have been observing this daily event without comment, because i thought no, just my imagination. But now i can say that within the last month or so, sunset has moved laterally over 25 degrees from east to northeast, at least from my points of reference, which are fixed since they are my house windows.

Does this mean the earth is tilting more? Or leaning back?

Thanks in advance
tilting more, brown dwarf pulling on magnetic north, and pulling on our moon, coming in under the ecliptic plane.

For anyone interested in understanding how come a solar system ends up the way it is, listen to what this guy is saying and supported with interesting visuals:


o6FeY3bfxdc



He also mentions in passing something about Venus that's out of whack and would perfectly fit with what Velikosky has been saying all along as well as the Thunderbolts of the Gods' guys.


In following his theory and its pratical applications, one may be able to understand that the "something really big" that's happening with the sun is either something having to do with the Sun itself and the emantion of the waves from it...


OR


... something having to do with what bounces back the wave from outer space... that's where I suspect the "something really big" is coming from...


The bit about the "Noise" at the beginning is fascinating and staggering since it gives the level to which control, manipulations, psyops and cointelpro can go to; but that's another topic.

Talking about something really big coming our way, this was reported in July
Massive Sonic Boom Found in Stephan's Quintet (http://news.softpedia.com/news/Massive-Sonic-Boom-Found-in-Stephan-s-Quintet-211370.shtml)

Massive Sonic Boom Found in Stephan's Quintet

A team of astronomers announce the discovery of a massive sonic boom, a huge intergalactic shock wave, in the group of galaxies known as Stephan's Quintet. At this point, this agglomeration of 5 galaxies is on the verge of producing one of the most impressive cosmic cataclysms.

The five structures are colliding in pairs among themselves, and also with all the others in the system. In the end, all of them will merge into a gigantic elliptical galaxy, which will likely dwarf the Milky Way in size and spread.

Using the NASA Spitzer Space Telescope, investigators recently conducted a series of observations of this system, in infrared wavelengths. Their research revealed the existence of an enormous shock wave between these galaxies. Such a phenomenon is known among astronomers as a sonic boom.

The international collaboration of scientists that made the discovery was coordinated by experts from the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK), in Heidelberg, Germany. The new view of the Quintet provides experts with new data on what happened in the early Universe.

Billions of years ago, collisions and mergers between galaxies were commonplace in the Universe. The entire Cosmos was a lot smaller than it is today, and was also expanding at a slower rate. This allowed multiple galaxies, including our own, to collide with others.

Stephan's Quintet is located a mere 300 million light-years away, which is close in astronomical terms. Studies of the system have revealed an odd distribution of light among the five components, but thus far astronomers have remained largely oblivious to the existence of the shock wave.

The structure is one of the largest ever discovered in space. Recent measurements conducted in both radio and X-ray wavelengths discovered massive volumes of hydrogen and helium gas between the galaxies, weighing about 100,000 million solar masses, Daily Galaxy reports.

Working together with colleagues from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), in Pasadena, the MPIK team discovered that the shock wave is produced by the galaxy NGC7318b, which is moving towards the other four at tremendous speeds.

As it moves along on its path, it displaces massive volumes of the gas clouds, which in turn contributes to creating the remarkably-large shock wave. The strong radiation that molecular hydrogen gives off is what allowed Spitzer to identify the structure.

“The strength of the emission and the fact that it shows the gas to be highly disturbed was a huge surprise to us,” team leader Dr. Phil Appleton explains.

“We expected to see the spectral signature of dust grains – but instead we saw an almost pure laboratory-like spectrum of hydrogen molecules and almost nothing else. It was quite unlike anything we had seen before in a galaxy system,” adds the Caltech expert.

All our phones and internet got knocked out by solar flare activity in Arcata, CA that affected the electronics that deliver internet and phone, that happened about three weeks, lost all internet and phone for two days, everyone did in the whole county. Not sure what happened outside the county, but that's the report from there.

[MorningSong]

There were 2 massive explosions on the 28th August the NON-Earth-facing side of the sun, or at least were very near the north-western pole, and should not be Earth-directed.

I have had no info on any of these huge CMEs at this time except the photograms at Lasco2 and Lasco3.

I think now is the right time to start this new thread.
It was many times suggested in the Elenin thread that Elenin could have been just
a distraction. I think it was. Because of Elenin sometimes the topic of the
superwave was touched upon but not followed up. On one hand that's understandable
since it would have been off topic. But on the other hand maybe that should have been
the topic.

Today is september 1st. I think the arrival of the superwave won't be a single event.
We will probably see a period with an increasing number of significant events that can
be linked to the approach, then later to the arrival itself and finally the aftermath.
Is leaving the space shuttles grounded, have the ISS crew leave, the presence of the R2
robot on board of ISS, an unmanned military follow up for the space shuttle (X37) a
coincidence ? It could very well be the signs of the start of this period.

The strange thing, compared to Elenin, is that there seems to be much more tangible
material on the superwave and yet there is not such a hype around it.
And of course we can do without the hype ... !

What I would like to do in this thread is gather the material of people who are seriously
discussing/presenting the topic.

Since even NASA and the like don't seem to know exactly what the consequences are I expect
that speculation cannot be avoided. We probably see all kind of worst case scenarios painted
because it's safest to go with "Prepare for the worst and hope for the best".
They wouldn't tell us straight in the face. It would cause wide spread panic.
A crowd in fear can be controlled, a crowd in panic means an out of control stampede !
They let it bleed through little by little. Those who are paying attention will be somewhat prepared.
That seems to be their strategy for quite a while now, survival of the fittest.

So healthy thought provoking theories could help the discussion but please refrain from hyping
the topic and avoid spreading unnecessary fear porn. The topic itself maybe frightening enough
to some ...

Let me kick off with some material that I've found so far:

This presentation is not entirely about the superwave. But the presentation paints a good picture
of how space weather is of influence on earth. One of the reasons I think this presentation is
valuable is because it was given on the TU in Delft, the Netherlands. Although it doesn't say
explicitly it's very likely organized by Coen Vermeeren. He's been doing a very good job with
things like demonstration of free energy devices etc.

Is the new world order take over interrupted by something they will also not be able to handle ?

There are more relations that are very odd. I listened to Stan Deyo who also mentions this energetic ribbon and brings in
some religious views ... this card talks about rapture (why ?). Then in part 5 of the Pane Adov video at 2:36 mark Pane talks
about Africa splitting up ... look where the globe is splitting on the card.

The splitting of the earth could also be seen as splitting of 2 timelines of course ... as discussed in the remote viewing experiment.

- It is the sun cracking the earth from the inside.
- Hopi prophecy talks about the 5th world (under the 5th sun)
- Is the light shining through the crack the famous Illuminati new dawn ?

I think that an interaction (whatever the outcome may be) with this superwave is not a question IF it will
happen but rather WHEN. I think it's our task to CHOOSE which outcome we would like.
Remember the double slit experiment ?

This is a very good subject for consideration on the forum now, IMHO. There has been SO much hype and fearmongering about Elenin, Nibiru, etc. Energy spent very unproductively.
The superwave, however, and input from thinkers like La Violette are a very different matter.
I think Bill Ryan will welcome this thread.

" I have to use this opportunity (if I may) to add a comment or two about Elenin and all the accompanying speculation. (I nearly wrote 'hysteria', but then thought the better of it!) If I posted this on one of the several Elenin threads, it really might not be seen.

I've made the comment in the past that I'm really looking forward to 1 January 2013, so that we can focus on the real issues after 21 December 2012 has come and gone. (Nothing will happen that day, by the way.)

I'm also looking forward to 1 January 2012! So that we can forget all about Elenin and move on. It's nothing more than a very small comet, and may now have even broken up. It's not 'Nibiru' (never a helpful term to use). Those who think they have found Planet X on Google Sky in infrared are looking at the red giant CW Leonis. We stated that on the Camelot blog three years ago:

http://projectcamelot.org/index_archive_1.html

7 July, 2008
• Hot object in the sky is not 'Planet X'

Click here for a Google Sky image of an anomalous object which is extremely bright in the infrared. We derived it from a YouTube video recently posted by someone who claimed it was 'Planet X'. We sent the link to Henry Deacon (who we are delighted has renewed his contact with us again, of which more later) who advised us it was the red giant CW Leonis. We checked, and indeed it is. Thanks, Henry, once again, for sharing your extraordinarily wide-ranging knowledge.

For the record (and in contrast), my attention is being drawn to the possibility of domestic, financial or geopolitical events in the US at the back end of this year -- but I have no data, and this is only a personal feeling that may well be wrong.

Very best to all, Bill "

I recall he wrote elsewhere, though I don't remember where, that he is very interested now in exploring more the subject of the earth moving into a more highly charged part of the universe, and how it will affect us.
It would be interesting to hear from Henry Deacon on this subject. Hopefully Bill will ask him.

Anyone listened to Richard Hoagland's recent interview on Coast about Elinin? He had a great theory on it. He believes it is an artificial body perfectly designed by our distant ancestors to arrive NOW. You can listen to the discussion HERE: http://www.coasttocoastam.com/show/2011/08/29

Show Notes:
In the latter half, C2C science advisor Richard C. Hoagland (http://www.enterprisemission.com/) shared updates on Comet Elenin and the International Space Station (ISS). "I smell a big political rat," he said, in reaction to a recent report (http://news.discovery.com/space/will-the-space-station-be-abandoned-110827.html) that the ISS could be abandoned. "I think NASA wants to have an empty space station up there," controlled robotically for a certain period of time, he conjectured, adding that without astronauts there to conduct maintenance, the station could fall apart.
When Comet Elenin reaches its closest point to Earth (22 million miles), it will pose no danger to us, yet because of various "hyperdimensional" measurements and parameters, Hoagland has concluded that it has a specifically designed trajectory. It's an artificial object sent by an intelligence, possibly as a kind of time capsule by our ancestors, he argued. It also appears to have a tetrahedral shape (see article below), which suggests it's an actual ship with generators, computers, and controls, he continued.

I don't like what Pane Andov has to say about this thing making our sun go red giant. It's fearmongering nonsense. The sun is in the middle of it's main sequence and has a few billion years to go before going red giant. Any plasma coming our way from interstellar space, however energetic it is, will be incredibly diffuse. At worst it might have some influence on magnetic fields and cause some flares. I don't doubt Earth has been through similar things before.

I have no problems merging this thread into the older one.
I'll merge them.

However I will also leave a link behind so that this new thread can be found by its new name for a while. That way it doesn't get lost deep in a longer, older thread.

I've been researching Paul La Violette for some time....

Regarding his superwave theories.

This man deserves a lot of credit..

Exactly. Quoting and repeating your post for emphasis (something I seldom recommend others to do ;).)

LaViolette's work is outstanding.

Looking back to the first page of the "Something..." thread, I found (and remembered) that there is also this thread RE: this material, started by NorthernSanctuary in Mar '10 as well:

http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?540-%28Scientific%29-Evidence-for-What-s-Coming&p=3921&posted=1#post3921

Maybe the merge would be more appropriate with that thread since the "Something..." thread has gone all over the place discussion-wise? Just a thought....

I don't like what Pane Andov has to say about this thing making our sun go red giant.

I think none of us are very happy with uncertain times.


It's fearmongering nonsense.

Well that's what we are here for, to figure out what the value is of the info given. In this case fortunately it's not
hearsay ... This information reached him in 2 ways: ET's or astral travel (not clear) and a crop circle.

I agree with you that this is not hard evidence. For me it has equal value as channeled material and could easily
be a 'planted' psyops. However if that's the case then I am equally intrigued to find out why e.g. someone invests so much
time and money to create a crop circle to confirm this theory.



The sun is in the middle of it's main sequence


The problem is that there is too much material so I can't remember but one of the presenters indeed said something like the sun
is half way of burning its fuel.



and has a few billion years to go before going red giant.


Same presenter as mentioned above said that being half way was the time for a star to become a red giant.



Any plasma coming our way from interstellar space, however energetic it is, will be incredibly diffuse. At worst it might have some influence on magnetic fields and cause some flares. I don't doubt Earth has been through similar things before.

Well if the red giant phase theory is true then it will be the first and only time for this solar system I guess.
Earth will have seen similar things before. But we know for sure that at certain times species have been wiped out and to
some degree we must assume that earth has been reformed from something that looked like Pangaea to what it is now.
On top of that we made our current society very vulnerable by being so dependent on electronics and electricity.

If I look at the major changes on all planets in this solar system, the changes here on earth, need for a doomsday seed vault, DUMBS,
talks about alternative 1,2 and 3, money spending like there is no tomorrow then I cannot get away from the impression that someone
in the know is somehow 'concerned'. Not a little but a lot.

Is it time or indication to panic ? ... No never, panic always lead to more disaster.
I think it's time to pay attention and make level headed decisions.

Panic is not good but downplaying the facts is equally harmful. Unless of course there is convincing data to do so.

We like to hear positive news but there is an equal need to prove the case with facts and data as for negative news.

Pane's hypothesis is not pleasant to hear, but it provides a kernal of hope as well. Is there no validity to the ancient study of sacred geometry as the solution he talks about?

Voyager Discovers Possible Sea of Huge, Turbulent, Magnetic Bubbles at Solar System Edge


By A.J.S. Rayl
June 12, 2011

[...]

Nearly 34 years after leaving Earth, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, humankind’s most distant space emissaries, are closing in on the border crossing to interstellar space, flying at 17 kilometers per second now through what seems to be a strange sea of humongous and “frothy” magnetic bubbles.

Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 approximate locations in heliosphere
The heliosphere is the descriptor for the space formed by the Sun's outer atmosphere, the ionized and magnetized gas called the solar wind and its magnetic field lines. Close to the Sun up to the Termination Shock, the solar wind has a speed of 1 million miles per hour. At the Termination Shock, which the Voyagers crossed (http://www.planetary.org/news/2005/0524_Voyager_1_Enters_Final_Frontier_of.html) in Dec. 2004, and Aug. 2007 respectively, it slows down abruptly, feeling the influence of the interstellar medium that surrounds the heliosphere. The two Voyager spacecraft are in the nose region of the heliosheath, where the solar wind slows down further and eventually turns back towards the elongated heliotail. The heliosphere is shaped by the relative motions of the Sun and the local interstellar medium. The boundaries of the heliosphere are dynamic, shaped by the relative pressures exerted by the solar wind and the interstellar gas.

Nobody knows for sure what awaits the twin spacefarers beyond the sea of magnetic bubbles or how far they actually have left to go to get to the heliopause. What the scientists do know is that for decades various theories have speculated with some sound authority as to what we would find out there at the heliosheath and beyond, yet with every passing month and every ream of scientific data, Voyager (http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/voyager/) has been giving them cause to pause and rethink what they thought they knew. “It’s been one surprise after another,” said Stone.
The gargantuan magnetic bubbles are the latest surprise.

My God, it's full of bubbles
New data returned by the Voyager 1 (http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/voyager/) and Voyager 2 (http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/voyager/) spacecraft indicate that a sea of gigantic, "frothy" bubbles form when the sun's magnetic field lines become twisted and broken at the edge of our solar system. The venerable twin spacecraft are currently navigating through this sea of bubbles, depicted here in this artist's rendering. Credit: NASA / GSFC / CI Lab

Side by side: old and new views of the heliosphere
In the "standard" or old view of the heliosphere, the magnetic field lines in the heliosheath connect back to the Sun everywhere (Some field lines are shown in red and blue). In this view,scientists expected the heliopause, the boundary that separates where the solar wind dominates from where the interstellar wind dominates, to be smooth and the associated smooth magnetic field to shield us from the interstellar medium and galactic cosmic rays. But, according to the new view, the heliosheath is filled with humongous, 100-million-mile-wide "magnetic bubbles" (shown in the red pattern), which fill out the region ahead of the heliopause. In this new view, the heliopause is not a continuous shield that separates the solar domain from the interstellar medium, but "a porous membrane with fingers and indentations," as astronomer Merav Opher desceribes it.

[...]

Since the Voyagers (http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/voyager/) are truly going – much like StarTrek's Enterprise – where no human thing has gone before, there is no way of knowing for certain how long it will take the twins to pass through this boundary region, or what awaits them next, at the heliopause. The Voyagers are putting nearly one million miles behind them every day, yet these magnetic bubbles are so huge, it can take the spacecraft months to cross just one and they’ve been crossing them for several years.
From all scientific indications however, they’re close and getting closer. "We're getting very close, because we know the outward motion of the solar wind now has gone to zero – it's not going outward anymore," said Stone (http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/space_missions/voyager/stories_stone.html). That means, he said, “it could happen any day, or it could happen in two, three years. Our models are not accurate enough to be able to tell us that, because we keep learning new things – like maybe there are bubbles out there."
Whenever it happens, the Voyager (http://www.planetary.org/explore/topics/voyager/) team expects it will be well before the spacecrafts' power expiration dates in 2020. And when it does happen – when Voyager 1 finally breaks on through past the heliopause and into interstellar space to become the first human made object to be surrounded by the stuff of other stars?
"Who knows what we will see?" smiled Stone.

Seems this universe is getting more and more "Electric" and less and less "Nuclear," whether fission or fusion... a red giant follows the model of our Sun being a huge Hydrogen nuclear reactor whereas that seems to be less and less the case since sun spots are "cold."

Pane's hypothesis is not pleasant to hear, but it provides a kernal of hope as well.

Agreed ...

I think a significant event needs to happen as catalyst to get this world going again. Let's just hope it doesn't
have to be a near ELE.

Fear is rather related to uncertainty than negative consequences. That's why there is need to clear things up.

Well, let's remember "never let a good crisis go to waste". Crisis...Action.... Solution so to speak. Fear porn is the best way to lead the people where you want them to go unfortunately.

[norman]

I've spent the whole day on this thread ( or what started out as Operator's new thread and then became this more confusing amalgam ).

Watched 6 videos, learned a hell of a lot.

The electric universe theory is almost a no-brainer but for one annoying detail that the video didn't address.

Why do incoming comets behave as elliptical orbiters when the electrical theory would expect them to crash straight into the nearest electrical node point?

However, I'm in no doubt at all that "something" this way comes, and it's a biggy, a view supported by all the stuff Operator listed regarding the behaviours of the PTB in recent decades and especially right now.

Earth directed M5 solar flare September 6th.

[Ineffable Hitchhiker]

:shocked: I went looking for "Something Really BIG is Going on With The Sun." and see that it has been merged.

Anyway, here is my contribution from a youtube subscription, uploaded an hour ago.

"EARTH-DIRECTED FLARE: This morning at 0150 UT, sunspot 1283 produced an M5.3-class solar flare. A movie from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory shows the flash of extreme UV radiation. Because of the sunspot's central location on the solar disk, the eruption was Earth-directed and a CME might be heading our way."

[InTheBackground]

The status line on the Solar Activity forum is currently reading "X Class Flare." Can anyone confirm any details, or is this simply referring to the M5.3 that Ineffable Hitchhiker and Carolin referenced above?

So sorry, not up on how all of the sun websites work. I just happened to notice, and wondered. :confused:

Solarsoft has finally put it on their graphs....it came from Sunspot 1283 so it IS Earth Bound!

[InTheBackground]

Thanks, MorningSong, for all your hard work here!

On a slightly divergent note, does anyone know why this thread is now in the FutureTalk subforum? It used to be located in the Solar Activity subforum, I think? It took me a while to re-locate it.

[MorningSong]

My thanks to you! Not hard work really...I'm just fast on the mouse trigger and kinda know where to look for this data.

As to why the thread was moved....has to do with the original OP and Mod Paul merging Operator's thread with this one.

See this post foreward: http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?286-Something-Really-BIG-is-Going-on-With-The-Sun&p=298005&viewfull=1#post298005

Difficult to un-do now. We probably need to post "Sun Stuff" over "yonder"... will open a new thread for it right now.

[Hervé]

According to this simulation, the CME will just be glancing Earth aorund the 10th...

Similar data from SpaceWeather,com:


EARTH-DIRECTED FLARE: This morning at 0150 UT, sunspot 1283 produced an M5.3-class (http://www.spaceweather.com/glossary/flareclasses.html) solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the flash of extreme ultraviolet radiation:

http://www.spaceweather.com/images2011/06sep11/m5flare_strip.jpg (http://www.spaceweather.com/images2011/06sep11/m5flare_1024.jpg)

Because of the sunspot's central location on the solar disk, the eruption was Earth-directed--but is a CME heading our way? Around the time of the explosion, a number of plasma clouds were already billowing away from the sun, adding an element of confusion to the analysis. Tentatively, we expect Earth's magnetic field to receive a glancing blow from a CME on Sept. 8th or 9th. Stay tuned for updates.

[MorningSong]

SolarSoft says the M5 earlier today and the X2 a few hours ago are Earth bound.

We shall see what happens.

why did this thread get moved from the solar section? It had always been stickied there and then disappeared, thought it was lost...

It is a discussion of current and past Solar events...

Could the mods please move this very informative thread back to the Solar section????

[schneider]

I remember Ashyana Dean talking about the sun being messed with by some malefic groups. It was in the interview that Kerry Cassidy did in May of 2010. The interview is like 6 hours long and I believe the info on the sun is in the last part of the video. Go to project camelot library and it is in part 2 or part 3. Major Ed Dames talks about devastating solar flares hitting the earth, I think he said it would hit in the midwest section of the United States. So many things to contemplate.

someone asked why the bursts aren't hitting us, watch the very end, see those white glowing orbs pulling away from the sunspot...

this thread is in the wrong section can it move back to Solar Activity with a sticky?

I think Dr. Paul LaViolette's interview was perhaps one the best ones that Bill and Kerry ever did. And they really should interview Pane Andov!
