Not in the slightest. This is nothing compared to countless CMEs we’ve seen before.

    Oh my God, would you please be so kind and stop saying such nonsense all the time? A filament is definitely not to blame for Goes' data problems and that alone doesn't fit in terms of time. You alone

Can anyone explain why LASCO hasn't updated for about 7 hours?! This feels like the ultimate cliffhanger.

Or maybe my server is broke 😕

Absolutely not. 

Y'all need to stop watching the fear mongering videos (where ever those happen to be) that are there only so they can make money off of gullible people. If you're panicking over something you saw, it's because someone is lying to you.

EVEN IF that last flare was directed towards earth (which is was not), the only thing that could happen would be pretty lights in the sky in the form of Auroras. That's ALL.

The blast on the South Pole of the sun at 17/02 13:28 UTC may have been caused by an unstable polar crown filament according to spaceweather.com

Not a trustworthy seeming site. Based on the fonts 😋

It reminds me of hoax sites in terms of style but perhaps that's just my personal bias. Sorry!

It’s sometimes a bit over-hyped but generally trustworthy. Does not post over the top sensationalism or any pseudoscience, the author is a legit heliophysicist who works with nasa. If is a very outdated website. And don’t pay for the alerts, they are a total cash grab that are irrelevant with the existence of SWL

If you watch the last 3 hour loop of 304 angstrom (22:30-01:30) you can see filaments lifting off on both east and west northern hemisphere

It looks like there's a filament in the northeastern portion of the sun.

Looks like that one may be erupting.

C3

That is a lot of material being launched off of the NE portion.

C3

Looks like something is erupting on the northwest limb of sun and it is making a C flare 

This seems to be an eruption of a large filament

Almost like it was thrown off the sun Awesome Filament eruption if only the one that looked like a 3 caused a powerful eruption

There’s a few to keep an eye on. The one to the north is actually promising due to having way less of a magnetic field over it. The southern one has a fair amount of activity under but lots of a magnetic field over it, so that’s promising but going to take time and something to make it move.
It also looks like the top part of our number 3 is also lifting and probably the most favorable to come off first in my opinion.

What is this bright thing in the Lasco C3 imagery?

Just wondering - what are your looking at to determine where the magnetic field is?

On the imagery from SEEDS this bright spot on the upper left is shown as "flaring" constantly over at least three days and pretty much constantly ejecting material. (I use the term 'flaring' here to describe how it looks, not what it is).

Looks pretty extreme.

I'm asking the same question...

You know when you’re looking at all the images and videos on the mobile app and you run across the images that have all those goofy lines all over the place? Those lines are representing the magnetic connections. If you look closely enough you can see the ones that aren’t connecting also

It's a coronal streamer.

@Stella, it is not flaring, it is a strong continuous coronal streamer.

I keep wanting something to dislodge that filament hanging out around 50 south on the west limb….anyone else notice it?
