Aurora

This video was taken this week off the space station after a X class flare hit the earth. Pretty cool.

Neat video but that can't be playing in real time, must be sped up for our viewing pleasure? Movement over ground is too fast and just look at that solar panel race for a position move, have you ever seen any a 200-300' long arm on the ISS move that fast?

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

TALKIN ABOUT SPACE:
nasa used MICA to sheild the space shuttle on re -entry

while watching a show on ancient civilizations where the 50 ton stones
fit together so tight you can't even stick a razor blade between the seams and there is not any bonding agent (cement) used
But
they found a stash of MICA in the under ground tunnels there
hidden away... the weird thing is...it's not Native to that country
in fact: it was imported from 3000 miles away

very interesting....Sure makes ya wonder

Another VERY large X class flare happening right now. This one is strong enough that they say most geostationery satellites will be directly hit with plasma rays. The magnetosphere of the earth is oblong right now from this cme hitting it that's how big it is.

The next three nights could yield some substantial aurora just fyi. There were some here last week for sure with multiple reports in Mass alone.

This Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) came off the sun yesterday and was aimed at Mercury...they say this is going to hit the Messenger probe/orbiter within the next day.



Awesome display of power. That is the actual shock wave as seen by SOHO as it comes out from behind the sun.
