Spaceweather.com off line?

Anyone else having this issue?
Have tried to view the site for a few hours and no go.
Is this just a google issue,.
maybe a monster asteroid is on its way and the hush has begun..
just wunderin..Anyone?

Yep, they are not connecting.

Now, one blog I watch has been down ever since Sandy hit - but, I THINK I've visited Spaceweather several times (daily) since Sandy hit.

yeah ,.
Ive been to spaceweather many times this week, so I believe this started tonight.
hope their up soon

You could try here......

solarimg.org...

Latency reports out of New York are up to a whopping 97ms for absolute and 80ms for relative.

Any idea where their server is or is hosted? What state.

websites do sometimes crash for a while

All Space viewing websites are down. They don't want anyone seeing Nibiru..........

Took that long to put on the fake lookalike site.

I just checked Space Weather this morning and everything was fine. It must be something wrong with the servers because usually it would give a 404 error. Since the front page just isn't loading and a link to one of the other pages on the site is loading but loading very slow it's either due to server over load or some kind of work they are doing to the servers.

Of course them are just links found on Google but at least it shows that some parts of the site are still operational.

cannot connect to database

I find that spaceweather.com can be a bit on the sensationalistic side.
I prefer to go to the source(s) of their data.

sdo.gsfc.nasa.gov...

Same here now. They were down completely, then up, then only partly up, now down again in a different way - sort of like the stock market.

Yes. It seems that anything past 2010 (which is probably archived) gives that message. It could be anything from a simple error from the person to running the site to a small error with the company that hosts it.

spaceweatherphone.com... is still up and running but maybe they don't use the same hosting company. I'll see what I can dig up but it will most likely be back up by the time I figure it out.

But you prefer the full meal deal Some of us just need a quick serving of predigested grits.

Actually - I watch because I alert melanoma patients and get a quick glance of the NEOs without spending all my time on the True Grit.

I agree. This isn't the first time that the site has had down time problems. Maybe they should hire someone who isn't so rough with there equipment. Or get a new host.

Ah. It's NEOs you're after.
neo.jpl.nasa.gov...

*chuckle* I have that URL and a few hundred others when I need to get the full meal deal on NEOs or Solar Events. Thanks anyway.
