Looks like more social meltdown going on all over the world, this all sucks. I wish everyone would chill and spend all this neg. energy doing good instead, what a wonderful world we could have , so sad.  Solar xray flux is still flatlined and still solar wind >400 w/.3 protons, our magnetic field is obviously weak for some reason.:wtf 1564 is causing quite a rukus on the back side, it waited until it rotated over the E. limb before going off this time, ??? Nin's spot. |
| Hugh M Eye User ID: 22914370 United States09/14/2012 04:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have to admit I was wrong about AR1569. It's growth looked promising a few days ago, but it seems to be decaying along with 1571. As usual, the Sun is unpredictable. GOOD NEWS FOR SUNTARDS! Big Bear has upgraded its solar telescope with adaptive optics to produce the sharpest images EVER taken of our star. From Sky & Telescope Magazine- "The Big Bear Solar Observatory recently upgraded its New Solar Telescope with an advanced adaptive optics system. Now the telescope is showing a sharper-than-ever view of the Sun. The telescope cuts through the blurring effects of Earth’s atmosphere by sending light from its 1.6-meter primary mirror into a deformable mirror only the size of a fist. The mirror bends and twists hundreds of times every second to respond to changes in the atmosphere. Small-scale features on the Sun are used as the telescope's "guide stars" — the camera that detects distortions in the atmosphere takes 1500 frames a second, so a solar feature that lasts for even 10 minutes might as well be immortal...."
