  • First destructive solar flare was recorded in 1859. Telegraph poles were on fire and telegraph network were down. After careful study, next event was already foreseen with 90% life wipe out but Scientist coded the actual date in Religious way to prevent people from panicking (late 19th century). Micheal the Archangel was the key where he defeated Satan and save the Earth from burning in Hell. 2012 - 1859 = 153.

    Search 153 that relates "Micheal the Archangel" in Google. You'll be surprised.

  • @pogpog28 Rubbish. Stupid supernatural ghost story bullshit.

  • @guidi2005 hehehe, you know this is just plain stupid.

  • @pogpog28 You are retarded.

  • @JbmxG89 Yup... ^_^

  • @pogpog28 For real like most conspiracy theorists have some form of mental dysfunction and I truly hope you were sarcastic and making fun of them with your original post. As ridiculous as most of the things that come out of their paranoid mouths is even they would draw the line on that one. Although to be honest it is more sane than most of the crap that comes out of their mouths. Maybe this is a conspiracy :O ILLUMINATI IN MY HOUSE GETTING MEEE!!!

  • @JbmxG89 hehe, Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee! ^__^

  • THERE IS NO 00:07 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • This has only happened once (that we know of) and can happen at any time. What it did in the 1800's was fried all of the telegraphs and killed an operator.

    For all of those 2012 believers remember one thing: the scientific proof is there but indicates it will happen within the years 1998 and 2240. Another note it known that the planetary alinement will flip Earth's poles but not immediately. Instead over thousands of years. It will be at fault for little volcanic and quake activity.

  • im tired of watching other people thoughts

    Please View my video and comment guys.

    I spent time putting all this information i learned from

    observing others.

    View and let me know what you guys think :)

  • Michael Kaiser, who helps run the STEREO instrument that captured the images, said, "This is the biggest event we've seen in a year or so."

    damn thats a nerdy job lol

  • Hooray! Satellite communications will be slightly compromised in short intervals while idiots think it's the end of the world!! I love understanding actual science, ratherh than listening to kooks who write FICTION for a living.

  • The world is amazing

    Earth is amazing

    you guys do know that 1 in a Billion planets is like ours

    We are soo reluctant we are the perfect ammount away the sun

    our planet has a gravitational Field to protect us from such solar flares

    its amazing

    So amazing!

  • i dont get it nothing happend

  • thats chuck norris's eyeball

  • horningkristofer and brigitte727, you two are some of the dumbest people i have seen post on youtube. Seriously, the fact you two are trying to talk intelligently about a subject you clearly have no clue about is amusing. Very misinformed people, that is all.

  • @keyrabuns69 i dont rember my post but i clearly do agree i mixed up thoughts and other stuff and wrote it funny and wired could you tell me what i was even comenting about please i do agree also im not a sighentist so i dont know any thang but what i learn at school, tv or internet oh and a few books here or there im know at least one of my coments and that one seems to be sarcasum i dont belive in hell for it is just liqud metal

  • @keyrabuns69 i dont rember my post but i clearly do agree i mixed up thoughts and other stuff and wrote it funny and wired could you tell me what i was even comenting about please i do agree also im not a sighentist so i dont know any thang but what i learn at school, tv or internet oh and a few books here or there im know at least one of my coments and that one seems to be sarcasum i dont belive in hell for it is just liqud metal down there

  • @keyrabuns69 ok i just figured out wich one ok so i was talking about how a lot of religes signetist have a disposihon with how sinece gos ageced the way the belive in thangs alot of signetist have freedom of spech tords there theroys and thoughs it is a pice of propa ganda i might have referd tords but if not they were avoding

    so cind of religuse or politcle fight there are lots of times a singtist is made to lie there even portrad as an under dog yet there the only reson stuff works me sorry

  • @horningkristofer there was a phsycic that said the world will end in 2012 and then they later figured out he was high so there u hav it, everyone believes movies gosh after twilight everyone said there were vampires hah! but ya

  • KURFUU.COM

  • this is what is causing global warming, not all that co2 crap that al gore says

  • Hey about those people that think the world will end in 2012, has anyone ever told them its all made up!? Like the tooth fairy, or Santa, or Jesus, or the boogie man... just another myth.....

    "But the mayan calender" doesn't end in 2012, it just starts a new cycle...

  • You know those people who say they believe that he world is gonna end in 2012, and they say it with a smile on there face... come on guys, if you're gonna fake major disaster, at least have it make sense, if I believed the world was gonna end, i wouldn't be talking about it, I'd be making a bucket list now honestly take that in consideration, Ill respect those people when they ACT like they believe it too

  • inportant sorry oh and if im rong about any of the theorys of todays math sorry im just a crazy pylosifer

  • inportant sorry

  • so if you wont someting you can get it just go for it and dont think its iport only do if its for you self

  • membrain the evey thang maters in the simpoler thangs not the big thang like your life or how can i mater what really is death are we just a millon cell membrains talking to each other or just some signole tansmited from someting you know the sadist thang you should learn is how litte you can realise you know the more you know and the fact is you cant know any more than a graind of sand in the univrises mebrian so to think about it your life reasin for liveing only matters to how you persive it

  • ok if any thang if the miens were right the ovisley were really good at math or the dinamiter of the sun, but if that were the case hippys would be right and the worst moive ever would be real in a as if. back to what we know the sun can hit soler flares wich ushlly wont bather us and if we do lose the magnetic atrachon we still have two more addums and gravitey so no mader how much you try engey never dies but neather dose the stragist thang organic matter and if the uinvrise is all just a-

  • @MrCenturionX well what do you call a moon the move towerd a biger plant and hits it medioright. one that is in the distance is a coment. one that pass are though are hemisfere is a shooting stair it is only a moon when its in an orbit arownd another coment or plant maby even possibly a stair

  • In soviet Russia, you kill the sun.

  • @whotookmynickkokokai

    That was just DUMB!!!

  • So the reason we are afraid of 2012 is that there is a SMALL CHANCE that our magnetic feild is going to flip in 2012 of all years. And in 2012 the sun is at solar maximum. So if a big solar storm hits us when we shortly have no magnetic feild, we are in trouble. We will go back to the Dark Ages. NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.

    idk the Mayans were drinking too much cocao when they made the calendar or something.

  • @EmperorsNewnewGroove

    Well, they must have had 24,000 years worth cuz that's how long it took to create that calender.

  • @MaffyMoose did it really take that long? hard to believe

  • @EmperorsNewnewGroove

    i think they just making people believe that something bad will happend.

    so when it does..

    theres no body to blame but the mayan theories.

    its just all elite related.

  • it aint real, the sun is made of gays like you all to believe this crapp

  • @tiowaro um you mean gay people? um you kiss your mum or someting

  • solar cycle doesn't start until 2011 and lasts till 2013?

  • @dean000000001 the solar cycle peaks every 11 years but the cycle is continuous and it peaks on 2012 the year we slip over th ecliptic ..who knows what will happen my guess is a polarity shift where our solar system is flung into chaos ..a galaxy is polarised just like a battery positive and negative this dictates the direction of rotation of nearly everything in the galaxy..the passing of the ecliptic is a big deal

  • why is the sun green?

  • @FabyeZz

    different wavelengths green is 5.500A thats why its green.

  • @dean000000001 can you interprite that a bit more what are the other wave links colur changes scaled in the 4.000 to 6.000

  • @dean000000001 can you interprite that a bit more what are the other wave links colur changes scaled in the 4.000a to 6.000a

  • sun fart

  • Uh... can someone circle the flare for me? 8-o

  • hey this aint real the sun is orange

  • @32UnitedIreland The green is to make the solar flare more visible.

  • @32UnitedIreland RED, looks yellow.....definetly not orange

  • @n809n um a really bright shade of red looks orgenge and a dark shade looks more yello wich make no secne but thats the way some thangs just are

  • @MrCenturionX nope a moon is something that requires a planet to orbit around.

  • More proof of GOD!

  • @Mrcharliebobo dosent mater if god exsist or not he defntly dosent exsist as a fragment of what any chuch haracy would discribe him as. and the signefece of any of are actchions mattering is erlavent for the univise is vary surviole is probly based on its distrochion. just as good old mother nature shows you evey day ya!

  • @horningkristofer - Time to get a helmet, Zippahead!

  • hawhy there is no chat on you tube.. Btw anyone up for some cam chat^^

  • This is a tiny flare just wait a while - much bigger ones to come. The cycle (24) has only just started.

    Flares of this size have no measurable effect on Earth. Besdies it occurred on the far side of the Sun so the aerth never felt any effect from it (this video was captured by NASA STEREO B spacecraft).

  • There is a big one occuring in 2012 ;)

  • @Heedlessone No one has the technology, or understanding to make a prediction about the sun... or if it will produce a large solar flare in 2012.

  • @GRIM2594 jep thats why they re guessing that's like weather forecast :-)

    i mean if they could .. woah .. they'd actually knew what color your underwear would be tomorrow ,befor you know about it :-X

    but still it's better to be prepared for something that never happens then the other way around ..

    lets just hope that our energie systems won't break down .. would be a pain in the ass to sit around with a candle all night long if it really happens

  • @DiabloDBS Yep, that's why I have a bug-out-bag; in the case that something ever does happen that I can be prepared for... I will be. I think more about situations such as Hurricane Katrina... There always will be natural disasters, let us hope that we never have to face one.

    I just don't want people to fall for the end of the world hype and spend their entire life's savings (lol).

  • @GRIM2594 well it'll be hardly end of the world, if statistics are right then earth should 've been hit at least a few times already.. but it could really be damn annoying since the big inductor in the substation may be killed by the em interference that comes with strong solar eruptions.

    there have been some cases in smaller eruptions that canadian substations went down (since the electro magnetical pole were still there (since it is now near Norway i fear that europe may be hit hard

  • @DiabloDBS Yeah, I do know that we will be hit by a CME one day; it's just that no one can make an accurate prediction when. What I find ironic though, is that I am currently in college getting my bachelors of science degree in Electronics Engineering... I am suppose to finish my degree in 2012!

  • @GRIM2594 Lmao, i didnt see the rest of ur convo, but if u believe in that we will be hit by a rock the size of our moon.. We wont, if so, we woulda been able to have seen it in the skies by now..

  • @dragefyr I don't believe you understand my comment(s)? I didn't say anything about us being hit by a rock, of any size...? Also, we do not currently have the technology, funds, or man power to track every rock in space.

    I really don't understand why you even commented towards me, as you seem to not know either of those aspects of science.

  • @GRIM2594 What... I just said i didnt see the rest of ur comments.. and u said something about 2012, scientists says a meteor the size of the moon is gonna hit us then...

  • @dragefyr LOL, that's not what real scientists are saying. That's only what fake scientists on youtube are saying. The only "rock" that we know about even coming close to Earth, is going to be in 2029. It will come in between the moon and Earth, and it is not expected to hit at all... Most near-Earth events don't even get recognized until after the event takes place.

    Anyway, my comment to you was directed towards what you said directly to me about believing a rock was going to hit the Earth.

  • @GRIM2594 i thought that scientists could not perdicked all the coments but do track the ones comeing close to eath even if they are 5000 light years away form hiting us am i wrong?

  • @GRIM2594 i thought that scientists could not perdicked all the coments but do track the ones comeing close to eath even if they are 5000 light years away form hiting us am i wrong?oh and im estamenting here i dont know the real number

  • @dragefyr Also to note, there are many "predictions" on what will happen in 2012, but as history has shown... ALL predictions of the "end date" have been wrong. Don't believe anyone if they tell you such a date. Then again, they only have to be right once! ;) (There is also the story "The boy who cried wolf", and eventually it will happen too.) The only REAL situation that could be a global catastrophe -around- 2012 is a solar flare which can happen ANYTIME.

  • @GRIM2594 you dont say, and i know all the predictions of whats supposidly is going to happen in 2012... and theyr all bullshit.

  • @dragefyr ;)

  • @dragefyr well i dont beliven any fariy tale crap ether but there could be a black hole in are galixyce even though no one no's what that means.and we here one some were close by one a wid plan if you made your own raideo have a good time geting arownd it. and the sun really could have a simic spill but who no's if it even hit us

  • @dragefyr ya we would know if a comet was going to be a mideright we all ways do but if it were a black hole we would never see it comeing but who knows what they even do!

  • @horningkristofer If a black hole would be here, it might be invisible, but i think our instruments here on earth and i think some magnetic forces here would be disturbed like hell, so im pretty sure we would notice quite alot too.

  • @GRIM2594 ya but you should have stated the fact we would know if a comet was going to be a mideright we all ways do but if it were a black hole we would never see it comeing but who knows what they even do!

  • @horningkristofer It's been soo long since I've posted here (and the way youtube has this setup), I really have no idea what your responding to.

    ...but to kind of answer your question(?)... Scientists know less that people think... There have been reports of meteorites coming within smacking distance of the Earth.. and scientists didn't find out until after the fact. I wouldn't trust what any "scientist" will tell you, as they bend the truth to fit "their" side of the story.

  • thats a big booger.

  • that is why many human seek back for religion. if science stated that sun evolves...of course it should be greater solar flare yet now, it is becoming quiet..so science theory is not a good prediction at all yet...in al quran verse az zumar 52- the world is lighten by the books judgement, prophets, and the witnesses which embarked the parrallel of the balance of light in this world.....

  • cause the doctrin of science only merged around the 17th decade. the evolution of human had been before science appears.there is something beyond than what the expansion of knowledge evolves.that is why there was stonehenge as a prove that human seek for God in hope to find the faith.for what actually? something which is invisible yet strong helps for human strength.this is why those dark days were called dark days.if the sun is quiet, not doing task anymore-we are gonna be back during dark days

  • but why the **** do people start to talk about religion when they a scientific, space video??? shut up!!! this is a video of a normal, solar phenomena, not the end of the world!!! so don't talk about that things because we are too much ephemeral and little for our actions be important in the universe!

  • irght on bro you tell them

  • i love jesus

  • IDIOTS! No learned man ever said the world would end on 2012! The calender the idea is taken from says the end of an ERA not the world! Which basically means it might be the end of poverty, bla bla bla. Doesn't the date coincide with when our solar system crosses the galactic equator?

  • @OriginAndAbsolution Exactly. No matter how many times I tell this on YT, people just don't understand. But You know, making movies of the end of the world, and selling books on how to survive makes a lot of money, and there are enough fools to believe, and pay money for this bullshit. BTW the mayan calendar only predicts the synod for the certain date, a long lasting (maybe dacades long) change of eras is only a consequence of that.

  • 5 billion years. None of us current YT members won't be here for that event. I'll feel bad for them who are going to be living at that time....

  • Excellent... was about time... thanks!

  • i dont know a lot about things like this, but what did happen here? i just saw an green sun rotating

  • I don't know much about a solar flare either but by the looks of it the white spectacle at the top left of the sun is most likely the solar flare, you can also see it get bigger in the last second of the video.

  • oh, pff, damn youtube not putting replies under people by default.

  • yeah its all gay now

  • i know, but at least it gets messaged to them

  • derrick713 jus got told

  • are you calling me a kid? boy I wish, being a kid again would be great. no work, no taxes, no cares in the world really.

    people need to have hobbies outside of their 9 to 5, derrick

  • no, hes calling me a kid cause i am one

  • it was also recorded in the bible, iching, the dead sea scrolls, and something in mesopotamia, forgot what that one was tho.

  • Why so pessimistic everyone? lol The mayans did the whole 12/12/2012 thing, but it is also been studied that nothing will happen on that day. They also say that the calender just starts over on that day. And added to that, a lot of researchers say that day will be the beginning of an intellectual time where the world is at peace. Personally, I don't think anything will happen at all.

  • almost 100 years? from what I've heard, the reason the poles flip are because of being above or below the gelactic equator. which is supposedly every 780,000 years. But alls well. I also heard gamma rays are nassssty tho. all this talk is making me want to research more into it, hehe. Thoooo if anything, we should be worried about La Palma (the mega tsunami more than anything earth related or green house related, that is supposed to devastate coastlines around the world)

  • agree. if it does roll itll be a dosey wave indeed.

  • i think its been clogged up and now its gonna just release all thats been building up but idk im only 13 :-)

  • hey kid just keep on looking up stuf you will be smarter than anyone here

  • you guys complain a lot :D

  • 7 seconds of watching a green sphere, suspended in a whole heap of nothingness.

    Booooring...

    'Till i read the comments.

    How is it possible, that people get so frustrated and annoyed with each other, after watching 7 seconds of youtube crap.

    It's unbelieveable... 7 seconds! There's not even sound present!!!

    Every time i come across some lame video, there are always backward idiots out there who'll start irrelevant arguments, accompanied with the necessary foul language. It's fascinating...

  • mm... I agree people are a bit frustrated and argue over nothing. I'm sick and tired of reading about what might happen in 2012, before, it was going to end in 2008 and NOTHING HAPPENED!

    As for sound... in short -not enough space to write here, I'm afraid- you can't hear sounds out there...

  • lol exactly all these idiots

  • The world was supposed to end in 2008? O_o I must have missed that memo. The world isn't likely to be 'destroyed' anytime soon. Humans on the other hand are fragile creatures, and we could explode at any moment. Wouldn't it be ironic if in 2013 the sun produces a gamma burst and boils off our atmosphere?

  • @Brigitte727 are we talking about the carzy theroy of that all iformachion has a level on no spsifce fecence

  • @Brigitte727 guess what in 2012 something good its gonna happen

    Jesus is coming to earth!(from what i heard)

  • @Brigitte727 they even said so in 2000

  • thats not a regular flare. somethings going on with the sun and im worried. its paper white now and much brighter.the sun seems to be hung up in its regular cycle. something never seen before.

  • yeah, it certainly is a little troubling. The sun is supposed to be going through an 11 year cycle now, or at least starting. Apparently the sun and earth goes through similar cycles around the same time. I'm thinking it has to do with our magnetosphere switching poles (which happens every 780,000 years) which some think correlates with 2012, but I dunno.  Tho the sun goes through cycles frequently.

    I'll save you guys the trouble, "geeeek"

  • Comment removed

  • o and ill also add that they have measured the circulation on the suns surface and it has slowed a chit ton also. maybe the core is slowing down inside it?.

  • so that means the sun could die out?? sooon???

  • who knows. im just guessing.

    im guessing it wont die out but get brighter and hotter. again a guess. as to why its so much brighter and whiter now.

  • No, not soon, 5 billion years from now... Search for Carl Sagan's Cosmos, episode 9 'The lives of the stars'. He explains what science believe the death of our star will be like, and he also speaks about the way other kind of stars will end. Watch it, it's fascinating, you'll enjoy it!

  • Who says Carl Sagan is anywhere near the truth for God's sale/........LOL

  • well, I've heard a few resources that the point at 12/21/2012 is actually when the solar system reaches the equator of our galaxy, which is what is supposed to cause our magnetosphere to flip, as well as every planet in our solar system and the sun itself. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    But with that, the suns poles flip along with our poles flipping, but we'll get creamed by gamma rays from the black hole in the center of our galaxy. PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Comment removed

  • And clot steps in with reason. This argument was quite entertaining though, I must admit.

    I think the internet needs emoticons for sarcasm •.•

  • Wow DietBroccli just anwsers a questions and you you people get retarded and crap!diet is right and you people are retarded

  • awful fast for the sun to be rotating like that i thought it was 1 year for the sun to rotate

  • The circumference of the sun is 2 π (696,000 km) = 4,400,000 kilometers.

    The equatorial speed is 66,000 km/day so the number of days equals 4,400,000/165,000 = 26.6 days.

    It takes one year for the Earth to revolve around the Sun.

  • Better a geek than an uneducated troll. :)

  • You're being a troll man. I think he was just kidding. I don't like starting fights online but chill guys. Some people on YouTube are just kids. Anyways. Just enjoy the video. Even if it is 7 seconds of a star rotating. :D

  • Where the hell do you get off?

    If he was joking, there was no indication of it. It's obvious that a lot of other people felt similarly to me, considering the six thumbs down on his comment and the ten thumbs up on mine.

    Quite frankly, I don't care what you think he was doing. If he wanted us to think it was a joke, he would have said so instead of just being disrespectful to me.

    I answered to pakkyz's comment about the rotation of the sun. Shaun was a dick. I responded accordingly.

  • btw just coz people dont care about any of these numbers and weird signs doesn't mean we're uneducated. but your right. i am uneducated - im still at school

  • Learn to type properly. Your poor linguistic skills show just how uneducated you are.

    Also, still being in school is not an excuse. I'm 16 and home schooled. That being said, I could run intellectual circles around you.

    Try not to be a dick to your obvious superior. It makes you look foolish.

  • Wow see what a jerk you are? Treat others the way you want to be treated. Not by talking to them about their "poor linguistic skills..." and still expect to get respect from them.

  • Yup. I'm very obviously and purposefully being a jerk. Do you want to know why?

    He was a jerk to me.

    I'm treating him how I was treated, and I will now do the same to you.

    Assess the whole situation before speaking and making yourself look like an idiot, jackass.

  • See? There you go again. You switch to cussing because you're insecure? Or did you get insulted by the word "jerk"? if you did you have a very low self esteem. And name calling? "I'm treating him how I was treated, and I will now do the same to you." Where did I call you a jackass? Or an idiot? And who's making themselves look bad? Me? Or your hypocrisy? Stop trying to use proper grammar because I know you're just an immature little kid. Seeing as how you handle things. Quit wasting my time.

  • i agree with you Drlchknjr this diet brocolli guy seems like a right twat, maybe its cuz his dicks on his head and theres a pussy in his pants, (its prob the onli pussy he'll ever get lol)

  • Oh cry some more. The very first comment you made to me had an insulted me and so I insulted you back.

    I'm immature? Hardly. You don't know me near well enough to make that assertion. What I am, however, is annoyed.

    I am annoyed that I made a perfectly normal comment in order to help someone and answer their question and was insulted for it because people somehow think that if you aren't an idiot then something is wrong with you.

  • I'm annoyed because you butt into things you have no part of without knowing the cause for my behavior, and then claim some sort of silly high ground.

    I'm annoyed because when had a proper reason to be annoyed, you come and rag on because you need to do that to make yourself feel better.

    So yeah, defend the guy who insulted someone for being nice enough to answer a question. It really shows the kind of person you must be.

  • Doesn't really say much about me other than that I'm defending someone who made a little joke and an immature child like you had to throw a hissy fit over it. It's not that big of a deal to be called a geek. But no, someone calls you a geek and you have to start an online war over it. You annoyed me because you made people think that you were correct and made him get thumbs down for a simple little joke. There's a difference between ignoring jerks and being a jerk. Calm down, geeeeeeeek! haha.

  • You really are just a stupid cunt aren't you?

    Do you know him? Did he say it was a joke? No, in fact, he retorted in a way that showed it was not a joke. He was insulting me because he didn't understand what the equation meant.

    I didn't start an online war. You did. I just responded with a simple retort and that was the end of it. Your dumb ass came along and blew it out of proportion.

    Piss off, kid. It takes your credibility away when you act more immature than the person you accuse.

  • I act more immature than the person I accused?

    "stupid cunt aren't you?" "Piss off" "Your dumb ass" "jackass." "idiot" "a dick". See what kind of vocabulary you have? That shows your immaturity. Also it shows I'm getting to you without having to use those words, showing I'm beating you in this argument. And incase you haven't noticed people are agreeing with me. And he probably responded back to you in an unpleasant way because he got insulted when you told him about his poor linguistic skills

  • Just because he didn't say it was a joke doesn't mean it wasn't one. Just simply use your IQ on those kinds of situations. Anybody with a reasonable IQ would have understood it was a joke, and you still got insulted? Please. Go cry to your mother. And a simple retort I did not answer to until I came upon this video again and saw that you were still babbling your mouth and I had to say something. And I am more mature than the person I accused.

  • And you did start this argument, I simply told you it was a joke and to calm down about it. What was your response? "Where the hell do you get off?" As if I had insulted you then left you to cry alone.

  • See? Some people are just TOO much insulting to not be ignored.

  • lol you are just too stupid to understand what he said.

  • i hate math but ur formula is awsome!

  • lol, thanks HalfLiveForEver.

  • It takes 24 hours for Earth to rotate 360 degrees. It takes 365 days (most of the time) for Earth to make one complete revolution. (Earth going around the sun)

  • Solar wind, and Solar Flares are Harmless to Earth... So it doesnt matter either way..

  • I think that sunspots are like wholes into the sun or something. If i haven't misunderstood in a show when a scientist said that

  • Sunspots are points of cooler areas on the sun. They're associated with strong magnetic forces.

  • More sunspots = more magnetic activity on the sun. Which causes more solar wind hitting our magnetic field

  • i live in scotland so any sunspots are good we need the heat.

  • sunspots are the size of earth, how does a sunspot make it hotter ?

  • i thought sunspots made the sun hotter. maybey i'm wrong sorry.

  • They are an indicator of a hotter sun, even though they themselves are cooler. They are eddies in the flow of matter/energy which, as in a river, become more prevalent the faster it flows. No sunspots (such as we've had a disturbingly many days of still, despite this one event), indicate low activity/heat.

  • A sunspot appears dark because it represents a cooler part of the suns' crust..thats why they appear that way :)

  • It doesn't it sends out solar wind that knocks out technology on earth. Less sunspots=good.
