| Anonymous Coward User ID: 2159872 United States07/13/2012 01:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | LASCO C3 shows a sungrazing comet headed for the sun right now. Everytime in the past one of these sungrazers interacts with the sun there have always been some sort of flare/cme. Worrysome a little because of the current position of 1520, it's potential of release. We shall see, has anyone else thought of this? I just woke up so if this was talked about a few pages back please disregard Quoting: C3Music 16136592  |
joinca  User ID: 8793176 United States07/13/2012 01:10 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Solar storm protection --->Space Daily Jul 13, 2012 NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) captured this M5.6 class solar flare on July 2, 2012, at 6:52 a.m. EDT. The flare came from a large sunspot called AR1515 in the sun's southern hemisphere. The flare caused brief radio interference over Europe. Image courtesy NASA/SDO. Massive explosions on the sun unleash radiation that could kill astronauts in space. Now, researchers from the U.S. and South Korea have developed a warning system capable of forecasting the radiation from these violent solar storms nearly three hours (166 minutes) in advance, giving astronauts, as well as air crews flying over Earth's polar regions, time to take protective action. The full article is here: [link to www.spacedaily.com]  "The government will one day be corrupt and full of liars, and the people will flock to the one that tells the truth." - “Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry.” - "The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." - "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." - "A Country with no Border, is not a country" -- Thomas Jefferson We MUST NEVER forget what Kamala Harris did to Justice Kavanaugh & his family! |

They are believed to be fragments of one large comet that broke up several centuries ago and are named for German astronomer Heinrich Kreutz, who first demonstrated that they were related'.

[link to sungrazer.nrl.navy.mil] [link to twitter.com] I was just doing my normal web rounds when I saw it. That makes me feel pretty good if I "discovered" it. The first thought I had though was damn if this does what all the other sun grazers do then the sun will asplode :) when it dives into it. I also think its funny how the whole C3 thing lines up. C3Music has nothing to do with lasco or space, it's my music group I had a few years back. |

It's about how a family deals with a CME bringing down the grid. It was very good and had a lot of tips in it that I didn't think about. It was definitely worth the 99 cents. I'm not the author and have no ties to this book. I just thought that since this thread is about such events many of you would like to read it. Have any of you read it? |
| tomasgod1 User ID: 19599487 United States07/13/2012 02:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This CME is moving really fast. I have been waiting for Stereo B HI1 to update, but nada since 23:18 UT on the 12th. AARRGHH! They have been updating Ahead HI1 though and it has tore past Mercury and almost across the view of HI1 [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] [link to stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov] Ahead HI2 isn't going to be of much use as it is looking at this globular section of our galaxy at the moment. If the NASA/CCMC Cone models are anywhere close to being right(and I think they are), this CME is going to hit fast and hard. The models have it arriving with the density maxed out while still cruising at over 800 km/s. This should make for a big IP shock/large deviation.
