Something's happened to the AIA imagery - doesn't look good...

    Do you know the difference between a proton storm and a CME?  EDIT: Sorry justanerd I didn't see your post. I'm on a horrible internet connection at the moment. Well said. I hope this user just

    So tired of this misinformant - do you know what a proton storm even is?? Here we refer to it as an SPE - solar proton event. NASA calls it a Solar Radiation Storm and they have special charts and war

  • All his posts are misleading, feeling like he is just trolling! I don't get why though, we're just here to learn a lot of cool stuff about space weather, there's no need to spread misinformation! And

Looks like there's a rise again. Even if it's a tiny one, at least I got my wish of another peak heh

is there a sympathetic flare from the region above ( Unnamed) ?

Dunno, graphs munted rn

 

Looks cool though

Haha 😂 hope it hasn't fully damaged the satellite

I checked the unsigned flux for 3743, 3745, 3747, and combined it is below the threshold for magnetic confinement. The whole area is around 9.60x²², generally magnetic confinement doesn't start being an issue until a region goes above 10x²³.

The reason all three of those regions are included is because the SHARP data doesn't identify regions in the same manner as NOAA.

Thanks 👍 that helps a lot

Damn, how could they lose data now??? Lol

Everyone looks at it when the risk of satellite crashing is high - i.e. during flares and CMEs 😂 and that's just the risk from solar flares

Looks like the second peak belongs to ar3753

Oh, is there a reason why the second one was by AR 3753? Was there something from AR 3743 that set it off?

Gosh, AIA 131 is now blank - not looking good

Earth is between SDO and the Sun. Its orbit crossed a little. Should be over in a few minutes.

Oh thank goodness 

Forgot about that for a moment

How often does this happen?

It seems like it did for sure. If you watch in 304aia with SUVI you can see movement from ar3743 connect to ar3753

they really should put a satellite at L5 or something to stop this from happening. 

we want more uptime!

Wow interesting, thanks for confirming

Yes! I don't understand why they can't put it in front of the Earth, not behind the Earth!

AIA 171 magnetogram seems to be coming back

I mean I just go look at like GOES-16.

And speaking of GOES, yes after that connection happened, there’s a visible ejection from 3743

It's coming back!

(the imagery, that is)

Unlucky how the timing of photos went, maybe 30 seconds more and we would’ve gotten some clear photos. I guess the earth in front looks nice though.

Haha 😂 yes

Oh, no CME ?

The video just linked cuts 20ish minutes before a pretty noticeable ejection.

what Video are you talking about? the SUVI images?

 

Only way to know for certain is LASCO. which hasnt updated for 30 mins.

Come on LASCO! You can do it!

Stereo A COR2 doesn't show anything but im not sure where it is right now.

Edit:
https://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/where.shtml 
Stereo A is to the right of earth ( west? ) so it should have picked up Something if there was an ejection.
https://stereo.gsfc.nasa.gov/browse/2024/07/17/ahead/cor2/2048/thumbnail.shtml
Not a whole lot of change int eh images, although they are very grainy compared to LASCO.

i can wait for CCOR i hope its better than the patchy data we get from LASCO

Edited by Prizma1227
Extra Data.

its usually a bit west from earth but im unsure rn. @Misaka maybe an idea?

edit: if someone can explain to me why it looks contained, please explain. i want to learn to discern stuff.
