Another X class flare.

From NOAA Space Weather.

A large coronal hole is due to return on 09 – 18 November and is expected to produce major storm levels.

Here's an excerpt from the space station status report for 10/28/03...

"An energetic solar particle event (>100 MeV protons went above 1 particle flux unit) began at 6:52am EST. This increased the radiation dose rates at the high geomagnetic latitudes. At 7:50am EST the vehicle made its first pass through one of these high radiation areas, which put the crew into a "radiation contingency" (according to Flight Rule B14-7). The crew was informed of today's high-dose-rate passes, and they were given the higher shielded locations within ISS (aft end of the SM and TESS [temporary sleep station]). The ISS will phase out of the high radiation areas (high magnetic latitudes) until approximately the same times tomorrow on 11/29.

Is old Sol getting ready to do a Flare Out...

We'll know if they quit broadcasting live TV from the ISS.

Revenge for our nuking Jupiter.

I see I forgot about those black helicopters flying in and out of Bohemian Grove, too.

And Calypso Louie's spaceships.

And those mystic vortexes that Bigfoot comes through to our dimension.

And the Atlanteans.

And those funky aliens from the Pleiades renting the trailer up the street.......

They're all over the place!

"Revenge for our nuking Jupiter"

Yep. The sun is jealous. We nuked Jupiter, the spot is forming and it will soon turn into a second sun. Just remember this "All these world's are your except Europa, attempt no landings there"....http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1006938/posts

Rats! Your=yours whatever.

I wish the people on the Sun would implement some type of Kyoto Treaty-- there is way too much Solar Warming going on.

Congratulations !

I "concurr".

Nova SS, no doubt.

[1ofmanyfree]

I heard the TV media last week reference the X-class event exposure for airline passenger’s equivalent to a maximum of two chest x-rays per hour above 30,000'. Since the ISS is considerably higher than that, it would seem the danger to them is real. Also stated was the fact that the ISS crew was seeking shelter in the living quarters, which provides the most shielding. Not complete but "most".

Anyone see or hear a word about the actual recorded levels monitored (closely) inside the ISS during last week’s event? I have not heard.

A fellow called in to Art Bell last night and said this was the precurser to the Sun going supernova.

Nope. Our sun isn't massive enough to go supernova. Could go nova, though. No real difference as far as we are concerned...

Could be getting ready to do this...

Isaiah 30:26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
