" something strange going on in the heavens above.." - maybe not - see below:

Update 11/6/2014 1447 UTC (9:47 am ET): The fiber optics provider has found the break, dug it up, and should be splicing the fiber links soon. Not known how long each fiber takes to splice or how many fibers are in this bundle, so there is no estimate at this time when we will return to service.

Update 11/5/2014 2142 UTC: We have learned that the fiber cables between WSMR and Stanford were accidentally cut.

This outage will continue until the location has been determined and the lines repaired or bypassed.

At around 2014/11/05 19:40Z a fiberoptic cable was cut accidentally between White Sands Missile Range and Stanford JSOC. The connection has been restored since, and images became available from around 2014/11/07 06:00Z.

Repairs are Complete, JSOC is Live!

The fiber optics cable is repaired and data is flowing to the JSOC. It's good to see the Sun!
