What is happening to the SOHO satellite?

[yeti]

I have a link to SOHO on my search page http://truthdb.org/search.html so I can keep a close eye on the sun. This is what it currently shows:

This is the first time I've seen all frequencies show the same effect. Looks like SOHO is being blasted by a CME!

There's been some recent activity regarding our precious star. From its 4-year dead period to a CME blasting a comet to smithereens, I'm convinced there's more going on here than sheer coincidence. Watching Sol is a rather good move. Nice call, and thanks for the data!

Users who are confused (as I initially was) regarding what each set of images represents can find details at: http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/real...ption.html

How do we know its a comet that got blasted into smithereens??? just a question that came by from nowhere into my mind..

[thokling]

We rely on Fox News and YouTube for all of our high quality data, didn't you know? :)

Just kidding, of course. I haven't seen any sources disputing the CME hitting Elenin and the comet's subsequent fall into the sun. (Such an event would be easily explained by the electric universe theory, which I'm attempting to keep a relatively close eye on.)

BBC is was reporting yesterday. What happened?

Quote:Fears of disruption as big solar storm set to hit Earth
7 March 2012 Last updated at 18:41 ET

A strong solar storm is expected to hit Earth shortly, and experts warn it could disrupt power grids, satellite navigation and plane routes.

The storm - the largest in five years - will unleash a torrent of charged particles between 06:00 GMT and 10:00 GMT, US weather specialists say.

They say it was triggered by a pair of massive solar flares earlier this week.

Is the SOHO data accurate? Why the relative absence of sunspot activity? Is the (sole pun) causal factor the sun or is something else involved here?

There were two large flares, one of them an X-5.

Quote:Active Region 1429 unleashed an X5.4-class solar flare early this morning at 00:28 UT, as seen in this image by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (AIA 304). The eruption belched out a large coronal mass ejection (CME) into space but it’s not yet known exactly how it will impact Earth — it may just be a glancing blow.

Solar flares are categorized by a scale according to their x-ray brightness. X is the strongest class, followed by M and then C-class. Within each class the numbers 1 through 9 subdivide the flares’ intensity.

A run-in with an X5-class flare is a major geomagnetic event that can cause radio blackouts on Earth and disrupt satellite operations, as well as intensify auroral activity.

The GOES satellite data for the March 7 flare is below:

It wasn't pointed directly at Earth, so it doesn't look like there will be much of an issue, IMO.

Ahh I was only speaking about this earlier
and there might be interference with satelites
near Earth. Not 100% confirmed obviously.
Thanks Fast & Easy.

I will be out tonight scoping to see whatever I can see
do hope its a clear sky here tonight last night was quite cloudy.

I was blown away by the video of Comet Lovejoy passing through the Sun.

This is totally impossible under the standard model of cosmology.





"Electric universe proponent David Talbott takes up the Comet Elenin question from a vantage point generally ignored by both the scientific mainstream and the Internet popularizers of Doomsday speculations."

Cool enjoyed watching the video CharliePrime.
The lightning structures on the tesla part of the video
remind me so much of human veins or trees with lots of branches
the comparisons and similarities of the human body the universe
and living organisms have always amazed me, so much is alike in shape and form.

Glad you liked.

It's been a year since I watched all these Electric Universe videos, but I'm pretty sure this video Symbols of an Alien Sky, Episode 2 is the one with the most examples of those cool 'electric feathers'.

Worth a watch.
