Sun is actually going red giant on the 23rd. Pane was right.
 Quoting: Da fuq


From what I have seen it's getting brighter no doubt in my mind about that.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30261890



Brighter and whiter for sure you can't look anywhere near it now. I remember growing up it was yellowish orange and you could look nearby it for a few seconds and not worry about vision loss but now I can barely look in its general direction. But its only been the last few years. How can it turn into a red giant that quickly isn't that a long process?
 Quoting: _Obsidian_


It is. But we have been tracking a magnetic ribbon of high energy particles that have been on their way here for awhile now. Sent via the galactic center. No fear

It can effect the way our sun spends its fuel. sending it into premature red giant. Google: Why does the milky way nuclear bulge contain so many red giants and super red giants.
 Quoting: Da fuq


Thanks interesting answer i'll look it up!

No offense OP. but sunset is not till 5:10 give or take five minutes due to the width of the State; east or west. The only reason it got darker for you is because there were clouds. Please, sunset has never been that early unless you live on the border of the time zone. It may be getting dark, but I have to say you should look at the sky more. I say this with all due respect to another.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26760221


It got dark about 20 to 25 minutes earlier yesterday.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30218778


Your post says it set earlier and your thread title says it set late.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30261890



Brighter and whiter for sure you can't look anywhere near it now. I remember growing up it was yellowish orange and you could look nearby it for a few seconds and not worry about vision loss but now I can barely look in its general direction. But its only been the last few years. How can it turn into a red giant that quickly isn't that a long process?

It is. But we have been tracking a magnetic ribbon of high energy particles that have been on their way here for awhile now. Sent via the galactic center. No fear

It can effect the way our sun spends its fuel. sending it into premature red giant. Google: Why does the milky way nuclear bulge contain so many red giants and super red giants.

The only thing that could be making this happen is that the rotation of the Earth is slowing.

IF the Earth is going to stop like the Mayans said then it will slow up before stopping.

IF the Earth stops one side would be in total light and one side in total darkness!

I have printed out all the sunrise and sunset times and will be checking tomorrow morning!

We may be seeing the start of real 2012 doom!

By the way...if the Earth stops the tidal bulge will drop and shorelines north and south of the equator will be flooded!

This makes sense, unfortunately. So where is the best place to be when and if all this goes down? Assuming there is one...

Okay, I'm creeped out enough to actually post (usually lurk).

I left the office at roughly 5:30 tonight and noticed the sky was still fairly bright. I thought it was weird, but assumed since I've been leaving after six for the last few weeks I'd misjudged how early it should be getting dark.

FTR my office is in Chantilly, VA. Sun should have set at 4:50. :/
