It appears to be a data transmission error that they filled in with data from a previous point in time. Here's JPG I converted from the raw unprocessed fits file (the only alteration I made was to the histogram levels for down-conversion to an 8 bit image):

Always, always check the raw original files. Besides, the automated processing frequently does a poor job of handling the levels (note the areas that are blown-out and completely white in the OP image). You can get more detail out of the raw fits files by adjusting the levels yourself.

Re: glitch appears on SOHO image prior to Comet Lovejoys perehelion
Looks like a large object embedded in the sun, or maybe its always been part of it, could be the entrance to the wormhole.
Wouldn't you have to have a heavy spinning object to create a wormhole? Perhaps the mass created by generating a large wormhole can only be contained by a large mass object ie a sun.
So an alien from another solar system trying to create a wormhole to this solar system would have to use the sun somehow.

He never did explain what he meant by that but he seemed to know what he was talking about judging by his previous post on that thread..

here's his post and my response back to him..you have fill in the blanks yourself regarding the meaning

...



And more importantly, what is Comet Love Joy made of? hmm
 Quoting: Beam Me The Fuck Up!

NiFe core, high rotational speed and great elmag. field.

AND CERTAINLY - NO COMET - the arrow of Sagittarius.
 Quoting: jk1 790968


Wow that's quite a claim..I've been trying to figure out what you mean by that and haven't had much luck yet..

very interesting theory

edit to add: I think it's interesting that Sagittarius is located in the Galactic Center of the Milky way and there are sites out there that associate it with 2012

[...]With 22 stars in this constellation known to have planets, Sagittarius has more known planetary host stars than any other constellation.

..The Milky Way is at its densest near Sagittarius, as this is where the galactic center lies

..Sagittarius A*, is associated with a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy.

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

the 'WOW! signal' originated from Sagittarius..

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

I'm still not sure what you mean by the Arrow of Sagittarius
I'm aware that in the picture below it resembles an arrow..so I'm assuming that you consider it to be some sort of spacecraft?

 Quoting: meat and taters

It's a transmission error, there's literally no data there. If it were true data you'd at least have some kind of data there from the read noise of the chip and from the background light level of the sun (even if there were a door-shaped pitch black hole in the sun at that spot you'd still have a background light level from the rest of the sun surrounding it, ie, glare).
I consider myself to be a very conservative christian but Im tellin ya, God told me the sun is hollow. Hard to be conservative when you serve a God who is so weird.
 Quoting: meat

Maybe you should consider seeking some help. The sun is not hollow, it's moment of inertia is about 0.059, completely incompatible with the claim that it's hollow. A hollow sphere would have a moment of inertia of about 0.66 and a sphere of uniform solid density would have a moment of inertia of about 0.4. 0.059 indicates it's anything but hollow and that the core is denser than the outer layers.

so in your opinion was it

2. done accidentally

3. computer error

4. something else

I'm just curious as to what ultimately caused the glitch in your opinion
