SOLAR WATCH * 255 M & 18 X FLARES starting 3-7-2011 (Updated Daily)

I like watching you guys out think NASA. Like the new avatar too TS, its like a breath of fresh air.

How long would you say that filament is? 3/4 of a million kms?

Psy, very creative avatar

OMG, good job sounds!! love to get regular folk proof, helps us have a little more confidence in the data. Thanks

The Amazing Growth of AR1640- Yet not even one C-flare! WTF?

Quadrantid meteor shower to start around midnight

Posted on January 3, 2013by The Extinction Protocol


January 3, 2012 – SPACE – Just three days into the New Year, and star gazers are in for a treat. On January 3 (starting at midnight tonight and lasting into the morning hours), the Quandrantid meteor shower will put on a show for the Western coast of the United States, as well as Asia. The Quads, as it is more commonly known, typically produce 60 to 200 meteors per hour, but will sadly fall during daylight hours for certain time zones. The Quad showers have been observed since the early 1800s, and are relatively short lived compared to some meteor showers, starting at about midnight tonight. The shower’s peak takes place from approximately 5AM to 6AM PST. Because that places the shower’s best performance after dawn in the Eastern Time zone, those beyond the west will have trouble getting a satisfactory viewing of the event. What makes the Quads shower special? Unlike most meteor showers, the Quadrantids originate from an asteroid dubbed 2003 EH1 instead of a comet. Viewing the shower outside of the peak hours isn’t recommended; unlike some other meteor showers, there won’t be much to see outside of the strongest time of the shower. On average, viewers can expect about 120 stars per hour. Although the Quads is a major meteor shower, it is also one of the most least viewed, usually having to do with a combination of holiday distractions and an ample amount of cold weather, not to mention the low visibility on the eastern half of the US. Still, if you want to set your alarm clock, those in the mid-to-southwest will have the best weather for viewing the event. Parts of the western north will be cloudy, in addition to cold weather that makes standing outside less than enjoyable. –Slash gear [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com]

Good morning all!

can anyone get on space weather????


[link to spaceweather.com]

I can't get on Space Weather news, but can get on current alerts ... [link to www.swpc.noaa.gov]


SDO is still not working, starts to load 47 images for today then quits.

[link to sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov]

The circumference of the sun is about 2,713,412 miles/4,366,813 kms, and I'd say it's about 1/8th of the circumference, so about ..... 339,176 miles or 545,852 kms long ???

could the shower put out camera???

Thread: Quadrantid First Meteor Shower of 2013((

Still seems to be some activity on the farside of the sun

from yesterday

and bigger on 1/1

I know it was discussed in earlier posts, but did anyone find a correlation between which side of the sun may be facing the galactic center while passing the galactic equator ??

Nothing else in my mind is making any sense.


SOHO is down too !!! [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov]

My paranoid mind is kicking in; are we systematically being cut off from data ???

does this help?
[link to sdodata.oma.be]

Yes thank you Psy !!!! Forgot about that link out of the many lost ....

this is the question I have been asking for about 1 year!

and more over what is the sun leading side through it's journey.

i think the sdo/NASA's web server in Delaware is having HD issues still. not a lack of data from the satellites so other web servers can still give data.

wow keep in mind
The average distance from Earth to the Moon is 384,400 km (238,900 mi).
so that would be going out past our moon!

TY!!!

and yes cosmic ray are on the average....going highest in a year now.
here is a aging chart for neutron monitors

now lets look at the cosmic ray chart from 1990 to today
[link to www.cosmicrays.unam.mx]
what are your thought on this!

i do not like this too much.
you can see it was higher during the time the sun was ...well hibernating...but it seems why to high for a solar max!

here is a chart going back to 1960's

we have seen much worse...but this is the highest i see during a solar max.

here is another chart to look over....

SO has put up a second video today called:
"They Should Tell You"
The link is here: [link to youtu.be]

im right there with you on this one
remember the big solar tsunami we had on the farside of the sun around the same time we were suposto have aligned with the galactic center

Good morning everyone.
Let's see what I missed last night.

i was wondering why they are compiling these 2 seperate sunspots as well

solen posted on this today as well

New region 11644 [N15E62] rotated into view on January 1 and got its NOAA number the next day. SWPC seems to be grouping this with AR S2150 even though the spots have the same polarity and clearly are split into two separate groups magnetically.

A solar flare was reported, along with a coronal mass ejection. The CME's energy is headed for earth at about 630 miles a second. NASA says it could reach earth by Saturday and geo-magnetic storms are possible as well as increased aurora.

solen says no earth directed cme's. I don't see it on iswa either.
