Big solar storm on January 23, 2012 seen by NASA's SOHO

On January 23, 2012 at about 04:00 UTC, the Sun unleashed a powerful flare and coronal mass ejection - huge explosions that drive hundreds of millions of tons of subatomic particles at fantastic speeds. The first wave of particles reached Earth in minutes, slamming into the instruments on board NASA's SOHO Sun-observing satellite.

Most CMEs are aimed off to the side, but the expanding halo of light is a sure sign it was headed right for us... and the proof is the big blast of particle hits to the detector.

We are in no real danger from this event, but it will most likely spark aurorae all over the northern and southern latitudes of Earth.

Ignorance is the blind instrument of our own destruction. There are "FORCES" & POWERS" beyond this REALM, that had been contacted by the wicked overlords from EUROPA-Asia (the old continents- Royal Families& their cronies) These 13 families (Rostchild, Windsor , etc) control this planet behind the scenes. The world so call "Natural Disasters" 80% are of "UNnatural origins" the education system is by "design", WE are control via electromagnetic waves.I invite U to really find the way to the truth

Are you saying that.... fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!

[KinDzaDza123123]

Are we going to die or what? Didn't get it.

"its not like im talking about Serpent Beings from another dimension LOL "

Might as well when you retarded nutters think HAARP can cause earthquakes, hurricanes, etc.

You also didn't have to mention it, I know your stupid type too well.

Don't look at me, it's not my fault how wrong you are. Take my suggestion in good spirits, however: learn about ELF antennas and how they cannot do harm to the ionosphere, cause earthquakes and etc. This can only be done on your part and I obviously can't help you in a youtube comment.

[gogerychwyrndrobwll]

oh wow!

[gogerychwyrndrobwll]

Uh that was my first comment?

[gogerychwyrndrobwll]

Yes, it's harmless. Shut the fuck up and learn some fucking science before opening that bullshit hole, you imbecile.

thanks phil you rock

you're probably right, I don't know enough about politics and economics to judge, but if what you're saying is true, it wouldn't surprise me. On another level, the ordinary citizen is a member of society, and if we decided to organize and rebel against the system, we could do something about it.
