Re: Something Remarkable Has Happened
I went to Earth Changes Media Site (that is a membership site) to see if there was anything posted about this flare.. there was.

snip
“What’s special about this event is the coronal mass ejection that erupted is by far the fastest Earth-directed event of this solar cycle,” Biesecker said.

And speed matters. The faster a cloud of plasma travels, the bigger its impacts on Earth.

Hesse said that NASA systems sent an automated solar storm alert to satellite operators and the Electric Power Research Institute. Hesse also notified the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy on Monday morning.
“It’s not going to be a catastrophe, but there could be noticeable geomagnetic current induced on the electrical grid,” Hesse said.

Disruptions to GPS signals and the power grid could extend far south, Hesse said. But he said that estimating the spread of the impact was difficult.
end of snips.

You can go to this site and see the preliminary comments that lead up to the info I've copied and pasted here.. (far less than 50% copied) and on that site, they attribute the info to the Washington Post, for those that would like to see more info.

edit: I think this is worth pinning.. and since it's heading to the bottom of page one, and not pinned yet..I'll pin it myself. Great video OP..everyone should see this.

Quick faraday cage idea. Ground the chassis of your car and stick items needing protection in the trunk.

Unless you have a real faraday cage, it's the best you can do.

Normally I don't worry about these solar explosions, but it's different. I've never seen something like it before.

And about 7 hours of data is cut out of that video, it jumps from about 12 or 13:00 to 20:00, it cuts out as the intensity increases.

Re: Something Remarkable Has Happened
In the piece from Earth Changes Media, that I copied a few sentences from.. they said it's expected to hit earth at about 9:00 am on Jan 23rd give or take 7 hours.. So, anywhere from 2:00 am to 2:00 pm tomorrow is the expected arrival of this CME to earth.

edit: they also stated that things could get "pretty interesting" “We expect moderate to potentially strong geomagnetic storming that can cause pipeline corrosion effects and power grid fluctuations,” Biesecker said.

Wait a minute, doesn't light take a few minutes to reach these satellites?

What ever hit the camera was travelling at several magnitudes faster then the speed of light!!!

Re: Something Remarkable Has Happened
Whats the big deal? Looks like a proton event and a rather weak one at that! Seems most of you did not watch the C2-C3 gifs from 1998-2002 that were really incredible...especially the X29 and x40 flares and their proton events.... theyyeahsure whited out the ccd displays for 2 days!

Wake me up when we have powerful events like those...until the its back to sleepyeahsure
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8455604


Neither of those were squarely directed at our planet. The point I was making is that that shit flying at the cameras is flying in mass at a high velocity right at our little fragile earth with it's sick weakened little magnetosphere.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6639225


If it is flying at the cameras then it will not hit Earth since the SOHO satellites are far away from us. How do you know it is travelling at the Earth?
