Thanks for the heads up....


awesome looking!

It's ripping loose all the way to the end!

Definately appears to have shot out a CME with it

definately doing something.... looks

Hitting Nict now

This could be a major damn deal...

A CME is not going to hit the earth only minutes after its released.

guys whats a filament can someone explain a little?

Thank God there is an adult in the room.

Well duh, lol. Good thing you straightened me out on that. Now go watch and notice the flare that happens before liftoff, it send a static discharge both ways down the filament. Thanks for you're knowledge and expertise lmao.

Hi, lovey!


Interesting times we're living in, huh?

You need to do your research---a filament can hit the magnetosphere in just minutes...cme will follow

was there a filament AGAIN?! How many were there this year... way moren than usual, for sure!

share?

Hey gal--How is Colorado...Hope all is well.

The density only had one big spike and now is not even measuring for the magnetosphere.

A magnetic filament snaking around the sun's SE limb just keeps getting longer. The portion visible today stretches more than 700,000 km--a full solar radius.

700,000 km long..huge

I thought it took 2days to get to earth?

From a solar flare---but from a filament it can be much faster..

yep. CME comes in couple of days. protons and shit...

It's an unbelievably huge strip of solar material that is suspended over the surface of the sun by a magnetic field. When the field colapses, the material either gets thrown off out into space or falls back down into the sun.

this one was 700.000 km (~450.000 miles)

Sure thing. Here ya go.

SunDoom?

A heads up for us non-solar experts please.

Can someone explain wtf just happened.

Ignore me, lots of informative ppl.

thanks

in a day or two it will be pointing right at earth an let loose a double barrel shotgun like in revelation
REVELATION 16:8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. 9And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

RSOE already was showing a lot of activity in the western part of the Ring of Fire for earthquakes prior to the filament collapsing.

Look at Indonesia and Japan.

i love this site so much doooommm everywhere we look :)
