[quote:Vasile.Lupu:MV8xNjYwNjQyXzI3NDUwMDI4XzdEMDcyQTMz] [b]DOUBLE ERUPTION: [/b] On October 1st around 10:17 UT, widely-spaced sunspots 1302 and 1305 erupted in quick succession, revealing a long-distance entanglement which was not obvious before. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) recorded the double blast: video - http://spaceweather.com/images2011/02oct11/ipad/doubleeruption.m4v?PHPSESSID=t67lcqfgi78bkfn7u172b4mmk1 The part of the eruption centered on sunspot 1305 hurled a coronal mass ejection toward Earth. The relatively slow-moving (500 km/s) cloud is expected to reach our planet on Oct. 4th, possibly causing geomagnetic storms when it arrives. spaceweather.com [/quote]

I have witnessed many sungrazers and have watched for any reactions from the sun and even some of the smaller comets have garnered a response from the sun...I think we might just see more "fireworks from this one. (I will embed smilies as soon as a mod approves)
