New group of sunspots form a straight line, page 1

I just found this image on the SOHO website from June 26 (it evidently occurred on June 23). It appears as though a set of 4 sunspots have formed on the surface of the Sun in near perfect alignment.

A group of sunspots have formed themselves into a straight line (June 23, 2009), a kind of alignment rarely seen. We have not even seen many sunspots lately at all, let alone in a fairly straight line. Scientists with SOHO agree that it is unusual for sunspots to be grouped like this. Their magnetic orientation shows that they belong to spots of the new 24th solar cycle.

So not only has the Sun been behaving extremely strangely with almost no sunspots & likewise little sun activity, now a group of sunspots appear and form a straight line.

I honestly would have thought a linear organization of spots would have been impossible, but there they are.

I don't think anything will be launched in our direction very soon, though some people think the Sun's expected to do something dire this July. I feel it's just too soon for activity to reach those levels yet...next year, maybe.

I've also been watching the latest crop circles this year, some of the patterns have been jaw-dropping. I'll keep a look-out for a correlation between sunspot patterns and crop circles now.

Perhaps this anomaly was formed to get our attention - it's an odd idea, but maybe the Sun will start talking to us in code, and this was a prelude...wouldn't that be cool.

Those are probably not bigger, but likely about the same size as Earth - the average sunspots are Earth-size but some have been up to 20 times as large as our planet.

Talk about the living universe! Well Evasius how long does a sunspot usually sit there until it blows off? You said perhaps next year?

Seems like after all of the talk about this being one of those years that we see no action, it is like the weather has just become flat out unpredictable.

I have said I did not think that we would see no action from this SS24, and wondered if it is building up pressure instead to blast out in record numbers.

I will bow out of this thread to listen to what the experts, or well informed members have to say about this strange linear pattern.

I just think that this is going to be the main reason for the push in windmill and solar power in the very near future.

Solar is the new gold.

Hey, I wonder if it is going to have something to do with the crop circle prediction of a solar storm on July 7th?

Thread is here: www.abovetopsecret.com...

Someone posted your thread so we could be aware of the sunspots.

Will they all of a sudden burst out etc? Interesting ...if the two are connected - sunspots and crop circle prediction.

I posted a counter claim to the July 7 prediction here:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

Using the timewave software, I correlated the September 1, 1859 Solar 'Super Storm' to late July 2010 (around the 28th). Oddly enough, that date has most of the characteristics the 'Australian scientist' was basing his/her prediction on.

I honestly think it won't happen this year - the above timewave info points to around 13 months from now.

No, they have to be close to the center and have the right polarity.

The fact that they're in a line is interesting, the fact they're alost equidistant apart is fascinating, I don't think nature works that way.

Hope someone with an insight to this will post something!
