Re: BREAKING!! Sun blasts X-class solar flare, CME to hit Earth very likely.
NASA will tell you that there is no danger from an X ray flare on the surface because X rays are absorbed by the atmosphere, the feel good truth in a way, and while it IS true X rays are attenuated by the atmosphere, during a severe x ray flare near midday x radiation WILL penetrate to the surface, because it is only having to pass through the thinnest possible cross section of the atmosphere. The more acute the angle the sun is to the planets surface, the less danger there is.

A sure way to tell if particle radiation is penetrating to the surface is with an AM radio, it will emit popping sounds as high energy particles impact and excite the rf circuit. the louder and more frequent the popping, the worst the exposure.

Re: BREAKING!! Sun blasts X-class solar flare, CME to hit Earth very likely.
On this day in 2003 (October 28), the Sun unleashed one of the largest and most geoeffective solar storms of the modern age (and consequently, one of the most studied).

The eruption was part of what became known as the Halloween storms; two weeks in October and November of that year when two massive sunspot groups produced unprecedented solar activity.
This one made it in less than 18 hours!

It's expected to arrive on October 30 or 31

When will the CME itself arrive? Assuming that it is Earth directed, probably on Oct. 30th or 31st. Fresh data from SOHO coronagraphs will allow a more precise forecast, so stay tuned.

During any solar storm and especially upon the arrival of a CME you should put as much mass as possible between yourself and the sun. These CAN sicken or even kill you, they killed 10,000 people in Europe who had copper roofs in one day.

Yes, there undoubtedly is a link, it was attributed to a heat wave that wasnt really out of the ordinary, happened when Bush Lite was president and he went to that boy scout jamboree and all of the scouts got sick. x-45 x ray flare and almost a direct hit with the resulting CME

Well, the Sun isn't necessarily the 'wrong' color, it appears red in the solar telescope due to the 1.0 angstrom hydrogen-alpha (Ha) bandpass- and really the Sun is ALL one can see maybe a welding torch or something?

As far as the other stuff, I do not know...
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68113863


In 1970 the sun was a pale yellow at midday. A G2V Yellow Dwarf.

It is not silvery white near sunset on a clear day.

The sun is no longer a G2V yellow dwarf



PERIOD
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81062394


Well, it has changed colors, sure... that does not make it the 'wrong' color- I had just mentioned that the sun appeared red in my telescope (which is what I think the response was alluding to), but it is supposed to appear red in the unit I have, due the gasses they put in there to protect your eyesight.

But yeah, the Sun is (appears) hotter and whiter than I remember, even from like 15-years ago... shit is all jacked.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68113863


Your looking through a powerful filter than protects your eyes. I wouldnt look at the sun during solar activity if I were you. There is light coming through it you cannot see but can damage your eyes.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81062394


Great for looking at eclipses too-



I have always been able to see sunspots prior, even small ones- smaller than the group reportedly responsible for this latest X-class, using both the 20mm and 12mm eyepieces- there is nothing visible on the solar disk at this time, at least not through my telescope.

 Quoting: ALL IS ONE IS ALL


MAJOR X-CLASS SOLAR FLARE: Earth orbiting satellites have just detected an X1-class solar flare from Earth-facing sunspot AR2887. The blast at 1535 UT on Oct. 28th created a massive tsunami of plasma in the sun's atmosphere.

The blast also hurled a CME into space. Coronagraph images are not yet available, but evidence for a CME is already pursuasive. The USAF reports strong Type II and Type IV radio emissions generated by a CME plowing through the sun's atmosphere. In addition, energetic particles accelerated at the leading edge of a CME have already reached Earth.

When will the CME itself arrive? Assuming that it is Earth directed, probably on Oct. 30th or 31st. Fresh data from SOHO coronagraphs will allow a more precise forecast, so stay tuned.
