Seriously... The Sun's fine.

It seems that SOHO has lost the Sun and has gone into reacquisition mode.
NOTE: LACK OF DATA UPDATES. SOHO went into "Emergency Sun Reacquisition" mode on Friday May 4, 2012, caused by a false trigger of the Coarse Sun Pointing Attitude Anomaly Dector. We are working on the recovery of the spacecraft to normal mode. Nominal science operations should be re-established in the next couple of days.

But it is not just SOHO. Several of the Cascades seismograph stations have been very intermittent of late and current VALT - possibly the most important one on Mt St Helens - is still down after about 6 days.
I keep a record of many the Cascades seismograms which you can access from here
It just seems odd that these things are all down at the same time.
I assume that Coarse Sun Pointing Attitude Anomaly Dector.meant Detector, but what anomaly has thrown it off so it has lost it. Hell it is big enough!
Anyone have any idea how this SOHO stuff works? The seismos seem to be getting affected all at the same time - all the cascades ones go down at once until the past couple of days and now it is just VALT.
HAARP has been off line for ages today as well.
If this was a conspiracy site I would be saying "what are they covering up?". Oh wait it is. What are they covering up?
edit on 7/5/2012 by PuterMan because: (no reason given)
so I don't see the significance of one particular post being down when others are working fine...?
Also, with SOHO, it's a bit hard to hide something when you keep the SDO and STEREO satellites up and running, innit?
stuck some kind of hose into it and sucked all of it up to use for fuel.

The Cascades seismos are down again today - all of them. RER, RCM, RSC, TDH, VALT, JUN, OSD to mention just a few.
