Breaking News;Sun Fips Rotates 360 In Blink Of Eye

The Sun Does a Flip
NASA scientists who monitor the Sun say that our star's awesome magnetic field is flipping -- a sure sign that solar maximum is here.

February 15, 2001 -- You can't tell by looking, but scientists say the Sun has just undergone an important change. Our star's magnetic field has flipped.

The Sun's magnetic north pole, which was in the northern hemisphere just a few months ago, now points south. It's a topsy-turvy situation, but not an unexpected one.

"This always happens around the time of solar maximum," says David Hathaway, a solar physicist at the Marshall Space Flight Center. "The magnetic poles exchange places at the peak of the sunspot cycle. In fact, it's a good indication that Solar Max is really here."

The Sun's magnetic poles will remain as they are now, with the north magnetic pole pointing through the Sun's southern hemisphere, until the year 2012 when they will reverse again. This transition happens, as far as we know, at the peak of every 11-year sunspot cycle -- like clockwork.

Earth’s magnetic field also flips, but with less regularity. Consecutive reversals are spaced 5 thousand years to 50 million years apart. The last reversal happened 740,000 years ago. Some researchers think our planet is overdue for another one, but nobody knows exactly when the next reversal might occur.

Although solar and terrestrial magnetic fields behave differently, they do have something in common: their shape. During solar minimum the Sun's field, like Earth's, resembles that of an iron bar magnet, with great closed loops near the equator and open field lines near the poles. Scientists call such a field a "dipole." The Sun's dipolar field is about as strong as a refrigerator magnet, or 50 gauss (a unit of magnetic intensity). Earth's magnetic field is 100 times weaker.

i like the lightning in the beggining...thats about it

[kicktroolinface]

@KingSageMusic Than you will hate when the earth shifts it`s poles as it did in the days of Noah, rock on!

@SheepDoggOne IT WAS A CALIBRATION SEQUENCE TO CENTER THE INSTRUMENT ON THE SUN.

@zeustruth every christian on the planet is a proven murderer? thats a fact? lol as an agnostic, choosing neither side, i wouldnt know which one of you is sillier.

[v6guitar]

LOL

[xweert711]

The sun tripped and fell.

[MrSumbody69]

@kicktroolinface man you are a tool,

[MrToiletface]

way to spin the camera douche

[MrLeggette]

sheepdog one nailed it! 

[bigkev2084]

@kicktroolinface the Earths poles are shifting now, the North pole is moving toward Russia i dont believe that the Earth will have a dramatic pole shift but a gradual one

[TheRobloxiaStudio]

The black object is probs mercury

[joshanator1]

Is anyone going to actually comment on the video itself? Or is this going to be just another pissing contest?!

[zeustruth]

@kicktroolinface dude really? get off your high horse son, your god is fake always has been always will, you are really dumb like a monkey, you christians amazes me at times, you all are murders proven fact, for the facts gotomy channel and royallove channel for the links of the past history of your so called religion.
