Object near the Sun on Lasco has been sitting there for at least 5 days

Good find OP

You ever think that maybe just maybe some posters come into a thread OP with some TRUTH in it becuse that is their job to hide truth (they kind oy validate the data) . I mean its understood its a matter of possible global security but its just wild how some do this even with switched profile names back and forth on the same threads. OBSERVED...

Why is that? Because "we" don't have anything that can withstand the sun that close? Is that your "common sense"?Gotta think outside the box if aliens exist. If they are more technologically advanced then us, then why couldn't they have something that could withstand the sun?Just a question, please don't get to attacks here!

Nevermind. No point. Thanks for the advice

anyone who disagrees with you, and/or shows actual knowledge of the mechanics behind something is "hiding the truth" gotcha.

you know if you actually suspect someone of having multiple accounts and using them to agree with themselves on any thread you should report it immediately as that breaks the T&Cs. of course, it's easier to make libelous accusations than actually make a cogent argument against someone more knowledgeable.

Common sense people..Common sense. Object that small in comparison to the sun seems to be approximately half the size of the earth. Nothing would remain stationary that close to the sun. As others have indicated, most likely the imaging device discrepancy.

That's just it. Nothing will stop them, they do not like to read about real science and understand that SOHO/LASCO produces thousands of artifacts that are completely ancillary to the analysis of solar wind and prominence that it was designed to image. The production of artifacts are actually a necessary by-product of the real scientific data that is being processed.

Well, Well.... NASA must have scrubbed the lens on SOHO.

The filament is gone.

Surprise surprise.

No. No cleaning. It's done with software.
As pointed out here a new background mask was applied. You can tell by the dramatic change in the appearance of the Sun's corona between 15:12 and 15:24 (July 27)

It's still there in the unprocessed image along with the other ones. Just like it was in February.
