...Driving me a little batty too ..... I don't remember a data gap ever being this long. AND there's really no excuse. The still shots are up to date. Take a look at that filament in the SW quadrant .. [ link to sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov] Quoting: TS66 How long would you say that filament is? 3/4 of a million kms? Quoting: Isis One 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 ??? Quoting: TS66 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! Quoting: psyoptics Thanks TS, good reference Psy, can you imagine if this were to let lose toward Earth?
