So two filaments are making a very rough ring shape, I don't see the big deal.

I'm stuck, I've been digging through digital piles of old stereo images to no avail.

jeesus.....well...i have been having dreams about something like this happening. In one form or another. I was on or near the beach and had this overwhelming feeling that something was about to happen. The feeling i felt was that of everyone on the planet waiting for something to arrive. I hope it wasnt this. I have been paying attention to the solar activity. And havnt seen anything like this either. lets just hope that ATS has made a back up generator for everyone of there family memebers!! grrreat thread btw.

As the article at Spaceweather says, the lower part is a filament connected to sunspot 1112.
The top part is a coronal hole I think.
Solar wind from that is on it's way to earth and will arrive on the 19th - 20th.

I for once am looking to the regular Debunkers here to put my mind at ease, because I agree with other members that this damn thing is aimed right at us and it does look kinda scary. Almost Sci Fi surreal or something.
I hope it goes away soon whatever it is.
There isn't really any "ring" developing. There are two (at least) quite separate filaments which can be seen more clearly in the 193nm image
