(Hooch, both links are dead on my end.)

Okay, I have been a SOHO watcher since the days of CyberSpaceOrbit (Rip Kent)

I have not seen a Solar Flare that big in 6 years of watching SOHO. That would be off the scale huge if it were real. I've seen some where the Sun looks as if it just puked on the Solar System, but nothing this big.


What I'm saying is that I think the image is due to a malfunction or camera artifact. I'm also saying it because if that were real, if it is real, I would be a panic mode right now. I really hope to God that isn't a genuine photo.

The sun looks ok to me.Why do they use different coloured images of the sun

This sunspot is growing very fast. This activity could mark the end of the deep solar minimum.

Whoa there, the suns polarity hasn't flipped this happens at solar max. The cycle has begun, but the magnetic poles dictate when it flips not the polarity of the sun spots. The increase in the opposite polarity sunspots precedes the polar polarity reversal.

And BTW fascinating theory Sky Watcher, sounds like I'd agree with much of that in a way, however he also forgets that magnetic fields must have an underlying electric current. I'll have to check it out. Cheers
BTW I think there already answers available for some of his queries in the Electric sun hypothesis. They match quite well from a brief overview.
Naturally things will be puzzling when the assumptions are made via an incorrect model

im sorry guys i have no idea about solar cycles or sunspot activity. Could someone dumb it down for a solar noob, what is going on and why should i care is basically what im asking? is this so OOOHH and AAHH that its rare or are we just looking for something to fill in the boredom? just asking dont flame.

All I can say is that there is certainly foreknowledge in what is currently taking place and it appears to be a major solar event brewing.

The Mayan Council of Elders, an anonymous scientist on Project Camelot and Illuminati Insider 'Hidden Hand' ALL disclosed there will be a major solar event occurring at the end of October 2009 (X class range). It appears from the current activity these may not be false revelations, but the real deal--they are given further credence judging by actions such as banks suddenly upgrading systems and sites going down at a time of major solar activity. Very concerning indeed.

I recommend people stock up on food and water just in case because to receive the same message from 3 seperate sources is enough for me to take notice of these warnings and take them seriously. I can only pray that in foreknowledge govts and industry have taken steps to shield energy grids to potentialy avoid massive blackouts if these revelations prove correct. Time will tell. Peace.

OP you beat me to it. I got these images yesterday, nevertheless a GOOD FIND S&F HERE ARE MY IMAGES.
Anyone see behind it?
VVVV




So is this a SOLAR FLARE OR GAMMA RAY BURST?
