Huge circle thing on AIA 211

Well, now this is interesting.

What is that thing?

Or is NASA playing around with the lenses to make this effect?

Kind of weird, but watch this.

Kind of cool too.

Be kind of neat to figure out how they make movies with helioviewer.

I still haven't figured it out yet.

I can't wait to hear all the replies to THIS one.

I'd be willing to bet it was part of the device recording the images, but, I wouldn't bet a lot.

i would say , it almost looks like a planet , but i know that was a time lapsed video , maybe it was the moon ? i tried to search out details on the video but their is none , so the title suggest it's a wonder planet , no idea witch tough

Trying to find the exact time on helioviewer right now. No luck so far.

Im pretty sure thats our moon and someone edited the video, forward then reverse.

It's the moon.

www.wired.com...

Hmm, cold it be Venus's transit?

Doubt it, but it's a long shot.

That big? No way...

I could buy the moon theory.

Plausible.

What do you mean with "that big"

Anyway look at the date of the picture in the article and the OP video.

You're the first to ask people to give you a response on some nonesense youtube video, then, when a logical post is set before you, you dismiss it.

"Its the moon."

"That big. No way."

You had above that the venus transit, that looks like this. The relative closeness to our moon gives it the ppearance that its huge when its actually small when compared to the sun. Do you have any street sense that far away objects look small and close ones big?!

You baffle me as a regular poster.

It's a bug flying in front of the camera.

Maybe a bird.




(that's what they always tell me.)

Just looks huge, that's all.

You know, I am entitled to believe in my far off distant planet.

I don't why I have to always believe in the logical one.

That is interesting, the way it floats in, then floats out, even if this is time laps footage.

It is a shadow.
But a shadow of what?

If it was the shadow of another planet...

Whats making the shadow of that planet on the lens, or on the sun for that matter?

The sun is in front of the camera, not behind the other planet, thus making the shadow on the lens or the sun....

But the sun is in front of the camera....

Jeez, the camera is between the moon and the earth, which means its also between the moon and the sun.

I just noticed something. That picture is from 2011 and the guy posted that in 2012. So how was he able to get a movie of it on helioviewer 42 minutes ago?

reply to post by Manhater


Because you can set the date of the images you want on helioviewer? Really, it's not that hard to figure out. I predicted the March 2011 SDO eclipse back in December 2010.

I'm going with eclipse seeing how we recently had onee and I was an observer and this is the right track across the face of the sun.

Who's with me ?

Damn it ng you beat me to the punch and I was in high gear pegged at top end.

Interesting to see light reflecting off the moving black disc/circle object. Too bad we can't see any other details on the moving disc.

ETA, if it were an eclipse, how does it return on the same trajectory path in the video. Did someone push rewind?

edit on 16-6-2012 by Gridrebel because: (no reason given)

The moon entered retrograde motion in the middle of the eclipse. That was one of the main reasons I made the prediction, and I specifically predicted that behavior because I knew that would freak people out. It's not something we see on earth when it comes to the moon, but that's because we're not in orbit. We do see retrograde motion of the outer planets because we're orbiting the sun closer than they are. Likewise, SDO orbits earth closer than the moon.
