Re: Almost Half the Sun Covered By a Huge Black Spot!
BUMP!


Things that make me wonder.... If the sun is supposed to be a fireball, then does that mean it is being fed a constant source of oxygen? And if so, what made that oxygen? For it to flare like that, wouldn't that then mean that the sun is getting bursts of oxygen to burn off?

Now then, if the sun is an electric sun like many people suggest, then wouldn't the bursts from the sun have a more electric look to it, like you see in those novelty electric balls?

The bursts from the sun look more like how water would flow than fire or electricity? Maybe lava like flow? Could everyone be wrong about the sun. Fire would spark and flare outwards in many directions, not circular even flowing bursts! Same goes with electricity. These are very violent elements (fire and electricity) Could it be a combination of fire/electricity/lava/water/wind(oxygen) all rolled into one?

Just thought I'd give you guys something else to think about!

It is not a fire. The sun is a mass of incandescent gas. A gigantic nuclear furnace, where hydrogen is fused into helium at the temperature of millions of degrees.

My desktop image and screensaver are up to date images downloaded from the SOHO site every 30 minutes, I set this up about 6 to 8 months ago, and watch the sun closely. In this time I have not seen a dark area this large. Maybe you can provide some older images showing and area this large??? I am not claiming any doom here, as the sun is reaching solar maximum it should be expected that situations like this will occur.

OP, that's an EIT image: Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope. That's not a sunspot, it's showing a specific range of temperature and wavelength. Different wavelengths and temperatures are imaged in different colors.

Sorry to puncture the doom balloon on this one. Don't get me wrong, I think the sun is going to cause us some serious problems one of these days, but that image is NOT a giant sunspot.

Re: Almost Half the Sun Covered By a Huge Black Spot!
Why do so many ppl on this site think the sun is going to do some spectacular one off event during their lifetime?

sun = 4.5 billion years old ( give or take the odd year )
you = 100 years if you're lucky ( or unlucky ) depending on which way you look at life.

Do these people expect win the lottery every other week?

maybe there's a huge explosion/s gearing up, and the sun's energy is being routed to those areas, so this huge area appears to be 'vacant'?

Re: Almost Half the Sun Covered By a Huge Black Spot!
also, when you view the sun it acts really strange even without all these dark spots on it.

If you think in 4d we spiral through the galaxy trailing the sun with the rest of the planets. So the sun is roaring through space at unimaginable speeds.

I know that when I throw a tennis ball of fire (Fun stuff) the fire trails the ball like this <O Now if we are following the sun through space and the sun is fire....then why does it not show this trail at all times? Is it just the vacuum of space keeping it all uniform and centered like this (O)

And if that is true, then what is feeding this giant fireball this oxygen? Also, why does the sun behave in this way? Shouldn't a fireball act like a tennis ball on fire being thrown?


That leads me to believe that the sun is not a fireball like they say! Now an Electric sun would act more like this! Then again, you would not see such a "flowing" of sunbursts like we are seeing in these pictures! Therefor the sun can not be purely electric in nature, can it? Even with the supposed massive gravity, and vacuum of space!

Hmmmmm. Anyone?

EIT (Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope) images the solar atmosphere at several wavelengths, and therefore, shows solar material at different temperatures. In the images taken at 304 Angstrom the bright material is at 60,000 to 80,000 degrees Kelvin. In those taken at 171 Angstrom, at 1 million degrees. 195 Angstrom images correspond to about 1.5 million Kelvin, 284 Angstrom to 2 million degrees. The hotter the temperature, the higher you look in the solar atmosphere….:-) ...
