Nasa Talks About Solar Storm in 2010-2011
By
Dr Tony Phillips from NASA is talking about a sunstorm that is going to reach maximum in 2010-2011 and it’s efects on Earth. For more details visit: science.nasa.gov And also try: science.nationalgeographic.com www.science27.com www.youtube.com

On August 1st around 0855 UT, Earth orbiting satellites detected a C3-class solar flare. The origin of the blast was sunspot 1092. At about the same time, an enormous magnetic filament stretching across the sun’s northern hemisphere erupted. Video from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory.

People are so addicted to technology that its sad. Man has gone far from her nature. So if you cant survive without technology you should get your priorities straight. That simple. When greed, money and ego rules the world this kind of thing will collapse the lives of those that are separated from themselves. Those that fill their insides with made up needs and consuming consuming. Serious threat? Yeah to those that are nothing but extensions of the technology they use.

February 19th, 2011 at 10:10 pm
@Gryzabell I’ll tell you what… Don’t pay your taxes. Come back on here within a year’s time and let me know how that worked out for you.
February 19th, 2011 at 10:55 pm
This solar storm must have been….. FLAAAAMING!
February 19th, 2011 at 11:11 pm
I’m gonna troll all the idiots in the bunkers when nothing happens.
February 19th, 2011 at 11:36 pm
@MrKotBonifacy Cool story, bro.

@zock137
Right…
Let’s make it simple and easy, shall we?
My point is NOT that I “don’t agree” with your comment – my point is, in plain English, that your comment is just as wise as it is necessary and enlightening.
About “highest rating”: as Stanislaw Lem have once said: “Only when I started using internet, I realised how many idiots there are out there…”.
And I’m not “arse/ head/ hand/ leg/ whatever-hurt” – I just barf when I read such thougtfull and intelligent remarks.
Best,
MrKB

@luckysuperlife i love you.
February 20th, 2011 at 1:27 am
@MrKotBonifacy Don’t get so ass-hurt over highest rated comments that you don’t agree with.
February 20th, 2011 at 2:01 am
@zock137
Yes, I think someone else would think so – I guess, some other moron or lamebrain, like you – someone, who all he can get from popular science video is that the lector “sounds like a fag”. (Personally, I’d prefer him to sound like a whole bunch of fags than having to read comments like yours… At lest one can gain some knowledge from the video, no matter what it “sounds like”, while your comment is as educated as it is polite and usefull.)
February 20th, 2011 at 2:58 am
If the world is going to end, why do I have to pay taxes?
February 20th, 2011 at 3:40 am
@zock137 yesss
February 20th, 2011 at 4:09 am
if the mayans were alive today they would be having some wild sacrificial party, now that it’s 2011.
February 20th, 2011 at 4:48 am
@zock137 that’s dr. fag to you.
February 20th, 2011 at 5:04 am
If your gearing up for just “in case” thumbs up this
February 20th, 2011 at 5:34 am
@es78xx the end is in 2011 and beggining in 2012 i think
February 20th, 2011 at 5:41 am
@zock137 it could be really masculine female lol
February 20th, 2011 at 6:02 am
i would never say anything negitive about anyone’s beliefs as to where i am no more intellegent than the man next to me, nore am i smarter than the average bear….but i am curious……..how would all the new age ‘metaphysical’ (wich actually means unchangeable…lol) people feel when 2013 rolls around?…im not bashing anyone…2012 freaks me out as much as any other 2012 nut….but i challenge any of them to answer my question with out sarcasm or the..”oh, it will happen” answer
February 20th, 2011 at 6:29 am
@grchacha you just wasted 5min on replying to a comment that i don’t give a shit about.
February 20th, 2011 at 7:29 am
my birthday lol you better be scared
February 20th, 2011 at 7:38 am
@buckygirl17 ya sorry your WRONG.
February 20th, 2011 at 8:23 am
That’s not a flare. That’s an erupting filament.
February 20th, 2011 at 9:12 am
@CadetBrandon lol
February 20th, 2011 at 9:46 am
@bogieman987 haha why not lol, wait,except the fat ones
February 20th, 2011 at 9:50 am
@CadetBrandon Ide still advise everyone 16+ to have sex before December 21st 2012 just in case lol
February 20th, 2011 at 10:04 am
@teed2k9 true but a strong enough solar flare can do damage
February 20th, 2011 at 10:46 am
@elmateeeo what about the chinese???
February 20th, 2011 at 10:53 am
@elmateeeo Canada is up to something… I swear.
February 20th, 2011 at 11:18 am
@gdfb64 Were still alive, so i guess not =D
February 20th, 2011 at 11:44 am
@teed2k9 or someone could do the world a favour and destroy the US before it destroys us all..
but only russia and britain have that kind of power at the moment
February 20th, 2011 at 12:04 pm
is it coincidence that since this happened theres been disasters in germany, russia, other parts of europe, pakistan, china and india? nope and the suns getting more active. makes you think the 2012 theories may have something to them…
February 20th, 2011 at 12:45 pm
man will destroy man not the solar flares from the sun the mayan’s where wipe’d out by other tribes and they had no food nostradamus was like any one of us who with a brain could predict future events as we can HISTORY always repeats itself so by looking at past events you can predict future one’s like u.s.a going to war in 2011 with iran then 2012 korea simple enjoy the atomic winters not the sun’s flares
February 20th, 2011 at 1:20 pm
@angelmassb Yep. Figured. I mean it only takes a single wiki page to disprove the mayan prediction, because nothing bad happens. It is simply the Mayan New Year, I believe its going to be like ba’aak tun 13 or 14 or some shit. Also, Nostradamus has predictions that counter the belief about 2012. He said that after the fall of the 3rd Anti-Christ (Mabus) there would be peace for 1000 years. Still no 3rd antichrist, so were good.
February 20th, 2011 at 2:19 pm
we’re doomed!
February 20th, 2011 at 3:00 pm
@SpectrixFx Realy? It’s very dangerus ?
February 20th, 2011 at 3:57 pm
@gdfb64 More like Knowing
February 20th, 2011 at 4:05 pm
a big truble,but who will be?
February 20th, 2011 at 4:05 pm
@CadetBrandon
Yeah well, you can call it a “temporal geomagnetic disruption” all you want, I know this is how the world ENDS, its called the DOOMSDAY, the APOCALYPSE ! it was foretold by the MAYANS and later on by NOSTRADAMUS! you must be a agent from the ILLUMINATI trying to create misinformation to bring the CHAOS and the satanic NEW WORLD ORDER where the ANTICHRIST is going to rule us all!! (by the way, im just kidding)
February 20th, 2011 at 5:02 pm
@angelmassb No, solar flares can’t penetrate the atmosphere. They simply start messin’ around with our geomagnetic field, causing an aurora of lights and maybe cause a power outage in some areas. They aren’t heated flares, as their temperature drops dramatically as it travels through space being surrounded by 2.725K which is -270.425 or -454.765 F. Absolute Zero, the state where it can’t be any colder,is at 459.67F. Solar flares don’t cause heat damage,just geomagnetic disruption temporarily.
February 20th, 2011 at 5:41 pm
@CadetBrandon
I have you can say that again AFTER WE ALL BURN
February 20th, 2011 at 6:25 pm
We had auroras down under.
February 20th, 2011 at 6:32 pm
Didn’t they say these were dangerous and could cause EMP’s?
February 20th, 2011 at 7:04 pm
@angelmassb Too bad solar flares don’t have the potential to destory the earth or life on it.
February 20th, 2011 at 7:29 pm
Goodbye Earth! it was nice to know you!
