shadasonic  User ID: 15732022 United States01/03/2013 08:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to en.wikipedia.org] Quoting: psyoptics snip Secondary Cosmic Ray Particles Primary cosmic particle collides with a molecule of atmosphere. The Moon's cosmic ray shadow, as seen in secondary muons detected 700 m below ground, at the Soudan 2 detector The Moon as seen by the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, in gamma rays of greater than 20 MeV. These are produced by cosmic ray bombardment of its surface.[16] When cosmic rays enter the Earth's atmosphere they collide with molecules, mainly oxygen and nitrogen. The interaction produce a cascade of lighter particles, a so-called air shower.[17] All of the produced particles stay within about one degree of the primary particle's path. Typical particles produced in such collisions are neutrons, charged mesons e.g. positive and negative pions and kaons. Some of these subsequently decay into muons, which are able to reach the surface of the Earth, and even penetrate for some distance into shallow mines. The muons can be easily detected by many types of particle detectors, such as cloud chambers, bubble chambers or scintillation detectors. Several muons observed by separated detectors at the same instant indicates that they have been produced in the same shower event. Cosmic rays impacting other planetary bodies in the Solar System are detected indirectly by observing high energy gamma ray emissions by gamma-ray telescope. These are distinguished from radioactive decay processes by their higher energies above about 10 MeV. Health Hazards of Secondary Cosmic Rays High energy secondary cosmic ray neutrons and other secondary cosmic ray particles comprises the components of cosmic rays damaging to humans, on Earth or in a plane. Outside Earth's magnetic field, the primary cosmic rays constitute the health hazard. CME particles are 1/10,000 as energetic as cosmic rays, also CRs have the fastest particle speeds ever recorded and penetrate the magnetosphere and reach deep into the earth. Their ability to penetrate matter is far greater than most energetic , electromagnetic radiation. And like you mentioned the protons and alpha particles easily breakdown into secondary radiation, GRBs can be ELES! “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” – Carl Sagan |

The largest flare of the period was a C1 at 03/2138 UTC from Region 1640 (N28W35). Region 1640 was the most magnetically complex spot group on the visible disk with a Eai/beta-gamma-delta spot classification. Growth and consolidation of the larger leading and trailing spots was observed in this Region. New flux emerged near S13W05 and was numbered as Region 1645. As Region 1644 (N14E48) rotated further into view, it was determined using magnetogram imagery that the trailing spot was actually a separate spotted region and was numbered as Region 1646 (N13E57). The rest of the spotted regions were relatively stable. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed during the period. more here: [link to www.swpc.noaa.gov] Latest Color Intensitygram: [link to sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov] AR1640 Magnetogram- :1/4-1640mag: AR1640 Flattened- :1/4-1640: |

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] How long would you say that filament is? 3/4 of a million kms? 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 ??? 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! Thanks TS, good reference Psy, can you imagine if this were to let lose toward Earth? Spread the word, change the collective conscious......
