Sun Stuff: What's up!

[MorningSong]

Thank-you Rocky and sdv! Well said!

[Rocky_Shorz]

for many who are looking for disclosure we aren't alone, we are able to see assistance going on protecting our planet from getting flared...

all other events can be explained away, but time and time again, these huge sunspots spin towards us popping off, then go silent until they pass, then enormous multiple flares happen...

it's a special time...

and we have friends...

Hi.

Here is a short video giving a run down of 8.0+ Earthquakes over the last 11 years

Why I thought that some may find this interesteing is in the snapshot. An iron shaped hole again.

I don't know why I did not see this before, but do you see the sphere shaped "whatever it is" directly above the sun in all of the above frames> at about just past the 12 oclock position. I went to the soho videos and went to a different day, at the same time, and its not there. Any thoughts on this? In the last frame it is noticeably farther away from the sun than the others.

[MorningSong]

Well, folks, after a very quiet weeks, we just gotten an M1-flare today around 13:20 UTC. No news on from which sunspot yet. Will let you know just as soon as I find out.

SolarSoft is finally showing that the M1.4 flare came from AR N11E78, an un-numbered sunspot area on the far eastern limb...not yet earth facing. The CME should not be geoeffective.



Has anyone noticed that Lasco 2 and Lasco 3 are stuck on May the 3rd???

[MorningSong]

The latest solar AR to roll around to face Earth has been numbered 1476 and appears to have turned beta-gamma-delta, meaning that it can send off X-flares. It has already produced 3 M-class flares: an M1.4 on 2012/05/05 at 13:19:00 UTC, an M1.3 on 2012/05/05 at 22:56:00 UTC, and an M1.2 on 2012/05/06 at 01:12:00 UTC along with several C-flares (see solarsoft for details).

Here's some NEWS from SuspiciousObservers:

And here's the latest update from SWPC 3-day Space Weather Forecast:

Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity
SDF Number 126 Issued at 2200Z on 05 May 2012

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 04/2100Z
to 05/2100Z: Solar activity was at moderate levels. New Region 1476
(N09E67) produced several C-class flares along with an M1/Sn at
05/1329Z. The regions proximity to the limb makes spot
classification difficult, however, it is currently considered a
Dko-beta type group. Region 1469 (S26W77) continues to produce low
level C-class activity as it rotates around the west limb. A model
run was completed after the forecast was issued yesterday to include
the CME observed off the southwest limb yesterday. It was determined
that the CME has a slight Earth-directed component. A second CME,
first visible in STEREO A COR2 imagery at 05/0309Z, appeared to be
associated with a C1 flare from Region 1469 observed at 04/2350Z.
Although both CMEs have a weak Earth-directed component, neither are
expected to cause significant geomagnetic activity. A third CME
associated with a C2/Sf flare from Region 1470 (S15W31) observed at
05/0639Z, first became visible in SDO AIA imagery at approximately
05/0600Z. Due to the source location, it is probable that the CME is
Earth-directed and a model run is currently in progress to determine
geoeffectiveness.

IB. Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low
with a chance for M-class flares for the next three days (06-08
May).

IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 04/2100Z to 05/2100Z:
The geomagnetic field was quiet during the past 24 hours.

IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast: The geomagnetic field is
expected to be quiet on day one (06 May). Quiet to unsettled
conditions are possible on days two and three (07-08 May) due to
weak effects from the CMEs observed on 04 May.

III. Event Probabilities 06 May-08 May
Class M 25/25/25
Class X 01/01/01
Proton 01/01/01
PCAF green

IV. Penticton 10.7 cm Flux

Heads up, another solar storm brewing!

From spaceweather.com:

TWO INCOMING CMEs: A pair of solar eruptions on May 7th hurled coronal masss ejections (CMEs) toward Earth. Forecast tracks prepared by analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab suggests that clouds with arrive in succession on May 9th at 13:40 UT and May 10th at 07:54 UT (+/- 7 hours). The double impact could spark moderate geomagnetic storms. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras.

CORONAL HOLE: A dark hole in the sun's atmosphere (a 'coronal hole') is spewing a stream of solar wind toward Earth. The impact of the stream, expected on May 9-11, could add to the effect of the incoming CMEs, boosting the chances of strong geomagnetic activity later this week. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory took this picture of the opening on May 8th:



Coronal holes are places where the sun's global magnetic field opens up and allows some of the sun's atmosphere to escape. The outflow of gas is the solar wind. NOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of geomagnetic activity on May 9-10 when the stream arrives (along with the CMEs of May 7th).

BIG SUNSPOT: One of the largest sunspot groups in years rotated over the sun's northeastern limb on May 6th. With a least four dark cores larger than Earth, AR1476 sprawls more than 100,000 km from end to end, and makes an easy target for backyard solar telescopes. Amateur astronomer Alan Friedman sends this picture of the behemoth from his backyard in Buffalo, NY:



"AR1476 is firecrackler," says Friedman.

Indeed, the active region is crackling with impulsive M-class solar flares. Based on the sunspot's complex 'beta-gamma' magnetic field, NOAA forecasters estimate a 75% chance of more M-flares during the next 24 hours. There is also a 10% chance of powerful X-flares.

"This one is going to be fun as it turns to face us!" predicts Friedman. He might be right.

Bryn's thread

WOW... That Hole is HUGE!!!! If what Nassim Haramein says is correct (and I believe he IS)... the sun is 'losing' it's outer shell !!!... the 'black-hole' interior is showing it's face! (Black Hole Sun starts ringing through my head!)

I feel this points to a Significant Change in our Sun's evolution... And Ours!

I also feel we All need to take heed of Pane' Andov's understandings, In Light of Another Understanding regarding this need for UNITY OF OUR CONSCIOUSNESS WITH SOURCE/GOD... Something that was just disclosed Yesterday (Mon. 07-05-2012) by Guruji Krishnananda:
Here is a web page in the Light Channels World Movement, that deals directly with this event. http://www.lightchannels.com/revolutionbylight.php
Main Page: http://www.lightchannels.com/index.php

I have outlined my experience with this on Whitefeather's thread about Pane':

Please Pass This Knowledge On To Everyone!

In Unity, Peace, and Love

Convenient that Lasco cameras are still out of commission.

[MorningSong]

This afternoon, we got 2 more M-class flares from sunspot 1476: an M 4.8 at 12:32 UTC followed by an M1.9 at 14:08 UTC.

Here's a pict of the big sunspot 1476:



And here's a pict from the Phillipines on spaceweather.com:



Now what's wrong with that picture? (Hint: look at the position of the sunspot cluster)

Does that look normal to you guys?

Are they stating that this photo in Philipines is recent?

[MorningSong]

Hello nearing,

Yes, this pict was submitted to spaceweather.com:

Alberto Lao sends this picture from Manila, the Phillippines:

When you click on the pict, you get his original comments when he submitted tht photo on May 8, 2012:

The sky was hazy and a bit cloudy today. I waited for a few minutes before sunset to try to image the sun hoping to get a glimpse of AR 1476. My patience was rewarded though only for brief moments before and during the sunset. Taken with Sony A77 500mm RF with and without Baader AstroSolar Photo Filter Density 3.8. Shutter Speed from 1/3200 sec. to 1/1000 sec. IS0 400 to ISO 100.

There is also this pict submitted at the same time:



What I immediately noticed is that the Sun in the photographs is rotated towards the right about 45° compared to the AIA data sun.....I'm wondering why the sun would be presented as rotating from left to right, with N pionting N , S pointing S, etc.....(what we all consider "normal") when in this photograph taken yesterday in the Phillipines, the sunspots are located in the north-western quadrant of the solar disc (from this point of view). This leads me to ask myself if the Sun is revolving from our N to S, its E being our N, its W being what we would call S. Does that make any sense???

http://spaceweather.com/submissions/...1336486163.jpg

This kinda weirded me out a bit....I have always assumed that the Sun's "north" pole was north..... if it is different, this is new for me.

[Rocky_Shorz]

I noticed .mil shows a mirror of Lasco so the sun didn't change direction, it is the photographer holding his camera backwards...

[MorningSong]

Hey Rocky,
I did consider that the published photos were maybe mirror images....yet, notice the trail of smaller spots (looks like a tail)...they would be curving in the oposite (and wrong direction) if the photos were mirrored.

If I tilt my head to the right, the solar disc is the same as in the AIA data sun....

[nearing]

Hmm, interesting. Could it be that because the Earth is but a large ball, that it does matter where you are situated on it? Perhaps perspective from position matters.

[MorningSong]

I did think about that too...but doesn't the sun look the same from anywhere on Earth?

At least what's N, S E or W?

[Rocky_Shorz]

I remember when it was on the other side, and then there was a reversal in the images...

when you look at this the left and center images are inverted...



¤=[Post Update]=¤

the earth is tiny compared to the sun, so there should not be a difference looking at the sun from any position, blame it on computers...

if the sunspot that just popped was on our left, why are we seeing the energy going to the right?



notice that link says "reprocessing"?
