But wait--there's more to see. Even after the sunspot departed, it continued to hurl material up and over the limb. Click on the arrow to view a parting shot: Movies: 1 MB mpg (web), 0.7 MB m4v (iPad), 0.2 MB m4v (iPhone) NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the eruption using the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA), a bank of telescopes that views the sun at multiple extreme ultraviolet wavelengths. The AIA's 171 Å filter (false-color blue) traces magnetized gas with temperatures around a million degrees K. This means the eruption you just witnessed was hot. Can't get enough? Watch more SDO movies here and here. IONOSPHERIC DISTURBANCE: On May 5th, a pair of solar flares bathed Earth's upper atmosphere in X-rays and caused a double-wave of ionization to sweep over the Americas. This improved the propagation of low-frequency radio signals, which use the ionosphere as a reflector to skip over the horizon. Rogerio Marcon of Campinas SP Brasil was monitoring a 24 kHz aviation beacon when the flares occurred, and he recorded a double-surge in the beacon's signal strength: Each of the spikes is called a "SID," short for sudden ionospheric disturbance. One was produced by a C9-class flare at 11:52 UT; the other by a slightly stronger M1-class flare at 17:19 UT. The two SIDs ride atop a slower undulation in radio signals caused by the daily rising and setting of the sun. In terms of radio propagation, the two flares were as significant as the sunrise itself! With solar activity on the rise, sudden ionospheric disturbances will become more common. Interested? Stanford University tells you how to build your own SID monitor. - Thursday, May 06, 2010 5:24 PM May 5 CME -- look for quakes on or about Sat. May 8 CINCO DE MAYO BLAST: With May 5th winding down, magnetic fields on the sun wound up and erupted, producing a bright coronal mass ejection (CME). The eruption came from a spotless region near the sun's southwestern limb. Extreme ultraviolet images from SOHO pinpoint the blast site: movie. The billion-ton cloud is not heading directly for Earth, although it could deliver a glancing blow to our planet's magnetic field on or about May 8th. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras this weekend. http://www.spaceweather.com/ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy. Get more from your inbox. See how.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 well there have been problems today - my service was down for more than an hour and had lots of problems last week At 05:04 PM 5/11/2010, you wrote: Some communications from friends... *********** WOW!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 confirmation Drifting satellite threatens US cable programming (AP) AP - A TV communications satellite is drifting out of control thousands of miles above the Earth, threatening to wander into another satellite's orbit and interfere with cable programming across the United States, the satellites' owners said Tuesday.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 My satellite is down. Wonder if any connection to this.I have directv. And interesting... just before it went down I heard a distant boom.hmmmaravia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
