Pretty awsome footage.

I'm curious though as to the actual size of the thing that hit the sun. It had to be bigger than earth to cause a reaction on the other side of the sun.

But I will admit ignorance to things as this and am still learning.


If an object the size of the Earth - and with its gravity - flew inside the orbit of Mercury you'd really know about it; for a start, it would have been many times larger than earth before the sun began to destroy it as it reached perhihelion. No one saw such a massive object, so it's pretty certain this is just a comet.

As the other video says, there most likely will be a flare hitting the Earth in a couple of days. How powerful it is remains to be seen. There's not much point - or motive - for NASA pretending it won't, as there are countless astronomical organisations and individual observers able to transmit that information regardless.

Forgive me for my total lack of knowledge in this particular field of science (was too busy being a rock star ) but is the nucleus of a comet typically, planet-size?

As far as 'transmitting' information.....I think short of smoke-signals, the government censors all modes of communication these days. So not so sure the 'information' would ever reach peons like us!

I think that was already established truthseek3r (do you know you spell your name wrong? thruth?)

But yeah....seems to be someone's rendition of this clip has been tampered with.
Hmmmmm, I'll go with NASA's!!!!

Or.... It's because the video file is not current anymore...

See how the links there are under CURRENT

Tomorrow will be October 4th videos.

It's still available here:

Yes I know my name spelled wrong (is there anyway to change it?) Anyways, I just had to bring in the proof behind the this had been edited because and sadly, without proofs, people do not believe that much (and for a reason).

Just something to rinse you eyes out there and see for yourself.

Thanks for posting that.

It seems to confirm the animation in the YouTube video.

OiO

The NAVY link is fascinating. I don't know however you obtained the directory link and their web-designer must not be very smart (is that surprising). Usually directory listings are blocked, so I'm really surprised why it's publicly accessible. I'm assuming that all GIFs are LIVE SUN view or slightly deferred, going by the date - using different filters.
Thanks for sharing this.
