This was captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory today and couldn't be seen from earth.



Nubiru?


Planet x?


Death Star?


Or what...?



Beyond the novelty of observing an eclipse from space, these images have practical value to the SDO science team. The sharp edge of the lunar limb helps researchers measure the in-orbit characteristics of the telescope--e.g., how light diffracts around the telescope's optics and filter support grids. Once these are calibrated, it is possible to correct SDO data for instrumental effects and sharpen the images even more than before.

During the eclipse, the edge of the Moon briefly covered sunspot AR1422, a source of strong ultraviolet emissions. SDO's EVE sensor, which measures the sun's extreme UV output, saw a sharp drop at several wavelengths when the sunspot was behind the Moon

Very cool.

Why are you asking?

Did you read your quoted text at all? What do you think it is - it clearly says it's a lunar eclipse multiple times in the text.

All of the above, Its a Planet sized Death Star named Nuibiru. OMG!!!

Runnnnnnn!.

Someone get David Icke or Blossom Goodchilde to tell them we are not Alderaan, tell them before its too late.


Awesome Image though!

Of course it's the moon.

And it's a great shot.

I love your tactics at trying to get views
Obviously the moon.

Luckily the SDO doesn't capture a sense of humour, you two wouldn't show up at all.

saw a sharp drop at several wavelengths when the sunspot was behind the Moon


the test obviously worked.

anytime we might be in grave danger from a sunspot explosion they will just move the moon around in front of it.

sorted.



(p.s. links would be nice, thanks.)

Never mind, noticed the "chillaxed" and answered my own question.

Before assuming someone cannot read...
You should assume they can read...
And in such a case...
This thread is humor, and poking fun at others gullibility...
don't be fooled into following the fools, when no one was serious except youz

Ribbit...


Awesome picture by the way..
