a very busy day on the Sun. First off, the largest solar flare of the current solar cycle 25, and largest since 2017 was observed around departing AR 3664 off the west limb. The X8.7 event peaked at 16:51 UTC (May 14) causing a strong R3 level radio blackout directly over North America. The second event, an M4.4 flare in the vicinity of newly assigned AR 3682 at 17:38 UTC, produced a more energetic and faster moving CME. The first CME associated with the X8.7 flare should be heading well to the west and way from Earth. The second CME with the M4.4 event so far appears to be heading to the east and also away from Earth. Our planet is dodging some plasma bullets today!.
17th most intense since these modern scientists began observations. Something tells me that in Earth's entire history this is barely a "blip". There is a big storm brewing ... in this solar system. That is what truly cannot be stopped. NCSWIC when the sun goes nova.
What nova are you talking about? T Coronae Borealis, a white dwarf 4000 l.y. away, is supposed to go nova sometime by mid september, and was last seen 80 years ago. It will be very bright and easily viewed for about a week.
I find it odd that there is an explosion of articles all over MSM about it in the middle of March, just before the solar eclipse. Every news organization and science periodical/blog has an article. What could they be using it to symbolize? That type of coordination can only be comms.
Or are you talking about the suns supposed micronova that some say will happen in 2046? Im not sure I can buy those theories.
Yea I knew what ya meant. 2046 is the date most places cite. Not on my radar.
The nova on the other hand is a real event. Every 80 years this visible nova pops off. All the articles coming out at the same time though looks like they are using it for some kind of comm.
17th most intense. Most intense since 2017.
Exactly

Intensify intensifies!!!
u/#fire
More Northern Lights then. Cool

yeah that would be insane, maybe they've been trying to 'warn' us about such an event? something sure seems urgent with our 'weather'...and speaking of 'began observations', just recently learned about this (have been in the area for decades) strange for sure... https://www.iowadnr.gov/portals/idnr/uploads/Iowa%20Outdoors%20Magazine/Nature/files/DayIowaIgnited.pdf
Surprised the stable universe morons have skipped this thread.
Can't wait for the nova. Supposedly in the next 4-5 years with the latest possible being 2030
Datefag comin' in HOT

Solar nova. It will supposedly coincide with the overthrow of Satan.

why cant wait for the nova? that would mean end of all life on Earth. Our beauty.
Now that is probably the most ridiculous use of the 17th I ever heard. Who calculated that? THAT has to be a comm.

Those sun scientists are really on top of their solar flare counts. Should we worry. Is it scary and dangerous? Do I have a sunburn?
