I spotted it 2 days ago via its prominences and it still has not turned into view yet. It looks to be almost as bright as 3590 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks to be almost as bright as 3590 there seem to be a few spots visible now, but they kinda seem lame and weak... Or maybe i am Mistaken here and our region is behind that whats showing on the limb now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, what is visible does not look like its all that interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Parabolic Posted March 10 Popular Post Share Posted March 10 Absolute unit of a CME was launched moments ago. I wonder if this was possibly from old AR3576? I believe old AR3576 should be rotating back into view in a few days. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered this also. To me it looks like the big region there is too much in the middle to produce an eastern cme like that but im by no means an expert. @Jesterface23 i bet you enjoy the CME imagery so i'll tag you 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesterface23 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 That looks to have been a large filament eruption maybe 40-50 degrees over the limb. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only argument against it being a filament would be that when viewing SUVI and SDO it looks like it's velocity is too fast for a filament and there's a small visible shockwave. It begins around the 22:00:00 mark on 03/09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It begins around the 22:00:00 mark on 03/09 It might be just happen to have been the angle it launched at to give it the wide shock. The filament overall looks too wide to have come from a sunspot region. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Warfel Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 That is a gorgeous eruption. I’ve about had it with SC25 and missing us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We deserve better! I completely agree @Sam Warfel I would promise you a repeat of Aug 4 1972 but the bz stunk on that one! I will remain cautiously optimistic for the next three years or so. Although our SFI may not be awesome, the sun is far from done with us despite unfounded predictions to the contrary. And Solar max ain’t even here yet btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back, I was initially thinking of Old AR3590 but I guess I went back a few too many rotations haha. The angle of the eruption does somewhat match the position ar3590 was in last rotation. I won't completely disagree with those who have much more experience than I. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I catch my own, or others will catch them for me, no big deal. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presently I am happy to see the recent arrival of four new active regions in the Northern Hemisphere* @MinYoongi I was becoming a bit concerned that the pessimistic outlooks for Cycle 25 might have had some merit. However, If you take a look at Growth of thread, irrefutable logic returns thankfully to that thread. * oops. 3607 is Southern Hemisphere. My bad.
