So what do you think
My opinion i have never seen one as big if this was pointed our way would this damage electrics i don't know if this is a taste of whats to come in the max in 2012 its going to be scary indeed.

Please don't misunderstand me all i am saying i have not seen one this big but i am not saying this is doom for us so don't twist it thanks

Thankyou

Anytime and as far as 2012 goes I guess its all based on the location of Earth the Sun and the CME exit point. There are also mentions of Earth heading towards a stellar plasma cloud. I dont EVEN worry about 2012 because it may be sooner aswell as a good interaction for some.. If its gonna be all doom and gloom then we must experience the lows to appreciate the highs my friend.

When i say 2012 i am talking about the Solar Maximum

Not the Mayan 2012 prediction hope i cleared that up

Thankyou

Well been looking around and found this.

Soho top 30 sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov...

And this one is nothing compared to some of them

Still this is the biggest i have seen but that top 30 Woo.

So maybe in the maximum we will see something like them who knows.

Thankyou

explain as to a child ,what am I looking at ?
looks plenty scary /pretty whatever it is

There was a huge X20 in 1989, and 2003-05 saw some X10's - X17's as well...this one is a baby by comaprison
Here's a link to a pic of the 1989 one:

The solar activity is on the rise again after a short rest - this one is pretty impressive. Will keep an eye out for anything heading toward earth. Thanks OP!

No it's not scary it's just a CME coronal mass ejection.

Thankyou

I normally look in on this site from time to time, but lately I have stayed away. I get interested and then the Sun goes quiet again! LOL

Nobeyama Radioheliograph

It shows that particular sunspot had been there since Oct 1, and now has moved beyond our directional, but this next site shows a big one coming from around on the Southwestern flank.

Radiowave Propagation Center

Thanks for bringing the SOHO forward! Isn't it a Beautiful Star! I am amazed that we are so blessed by the Sun.

It's not shaping up that way with the minimum carrying on for an extended stay. I don't think there is any correlation between 2012 and the solar max as they will occur in different years.
