cool video someone made on helioviewer, check out the double big flash from the Sun.

What is intriguing about the video is the double flash, and not to mention that doughnut boy flying around. Also the doughnut is gone now.

I believe it's Stereo - COR A. That's the one that had the doughnut.

Is the flash from the CME flare? How can it just light up the whole Sun like that?

I guess we can all assume that doughnut boy is not a tether incident now.

What is the thing that flys by at 010. I keep trying to stop the video but it goes by to dang fast...

Oh that is what you are referring as donut boy... Moving fast whatever it is...

That's the doughnut I believe, let me check again. Yeah, I wish they would slow it down as well. Maybe I can duplicate it in Jviewer. Bummer doesn't look like I can, I'll have to go through the helioviewer to duplicate it.

I see the doughnut on Stereo B not A. I don't know how they did it. lol Maybe phage can slow it down for us.

Here is a capture...

It moves across the screen so fast....Interested in know what it is.

Here this is what I got. 4 frames.
The object

Dang, anyway to get it bigger?

Interesting.

reply to post by Manhater


You can always click on the actual pic. It makes it abit larger. But If I try to make it bigger it starts to distort. Best bet is play with your zoom levels once you enlarge it on Photobucket

reply to post by XLR8R



Yeah, I was doing that.

I'll add to that with some FS shots.
postimage.org...

the object appears to enter from the middle of the screen from the top in a straight line downward. It then changes direction and appears to move around the curvature of the sun. also displaying what seems to be depth as it appears to move closer towards the camera as it moves around the sun. also appears to make a glancing dash very near to the surface of the sun. then exiting lower left which shows the rings just as in entry.

i believe it is one ring moving so fast that it leaves it's own image as contrails.

my question at this point. what framerate does this helio viewer record at?

i may be able to calculate an estimated speed the object was travelling at if it is indeed an object. if the helio viewer only takes pictures at 30 fps or higher. it would mean to my calculation that whatever it was. it just travelled many light years in the space of one second.

You named it doughnut boy.

I don't see it when I go to Helioviewer

I downloaded the MP4 So I'll either slow it down or rip the images from it.

also .. dont hate men.. some of us know how to love a lady.

I don't hate all men.

Just my x.

I figured it out!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the all seeing EYE!



Best I can make out of it. Maybe it's a Scarab

lol as long as you hate him it's because u love him

i gotta do some research on this helioviewer. where it gets it's recordings. what the rate of capture is. is currently proving difficult through google :S

reply to post by 0mage


Yeah, I can't figure it out either.

I don't know how to do the recording like everyone else does.

Any luck yet? Would love to see what you come up with.

Uhm, problem with the last sentence: You neither know the distance of the object, or it's size. You can only calculate how quickly it moved through the FOV of the camera. Won't matter what the frame rate of the video is.

It could be an out of focus particle, whizzing by a few feet per second just meters from the camera opening. Or something hundreds of feet in size a few miles from the camera. Or something many miles big, many miles from the camera.

So unless you know the distance of the object, or the size, you're not going to be able to calculate the speed it's moving.

---------------------------------

why do people always assume these are large and far objects?
