Wow!  This is a very large CME (coronal mass ejection) which happened on the far side of the Sun so it will impact Venus instead of earth.  This one would have caused auroras visible during the daylight hours... and possibly power grid disturbances, damage to satellite solar arrays.  The Sun hasn't produced one this powerful since August 1972.  The sun spot that produced that one was facing earth about a week ago... so close.  We may have dodged a bullet.

If it happened on the other side of the sun, then how did "they" take a picture of it?

Maybe I could look up the answer, but since we have a resident expert who teaches on the topic.. I thought I would ask.

 Firstly, I am not an expert; merely an enthusiast searching for another hours-long, rainbow-coloured, aurora borealis fix before I die.

 The animation I posted is from a series of images take by the LASCO (Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph) - Chronograph 3 to be precise which measures white light in a wide radius around the sun ie 30 radii) on board the SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) satellite which is located 1.5 million kilometers away from earth, locked into the earth-sun orbit and always facing the sun.  There is a disk to blot out the actual solar disk (because it's way too bright) so that the chronograph only images the solar corona and uses long exposure time to capture light emitted by ejected plasma (C3 takes a 26 second exposure).  Even though the CME is directed away from earth, the plasma is visible as it spreads outward from the sun.  There are other sensors abord SOHO that record data related to the emission which would indicate if it were earth directed or not.  The best indication, from the animation alone, that the CME is not earth directed, is that the image does not quickly become oversaturated as the brightness overwhelms the sensors.  I think it's common knowledge than it takes about 8 minutes for light to travel from the sun to the earth (~1% less time to arrive at SOHO) so the image would quickly oversaturate if it were earth-directed.

 Ah!  Fresh material
This is what the camera "sees" during an earth-directed CME.  The "snow" is created as energetic protons interact with material in the satellite (or the CCD of the camera itself).  If not earth-directed, there is no "snow" effect.

 

 

Ah I am confused how can that happen with the earth flat and all and the firm-a-mint set in stone.  You sure the over light is not flickering.

Do you remember the flat earth thread in the other section

Looks like particles bouncing off the walls of something (the lens?).

Impressive!

The spring of hope will come again, now the rest of the gloomy autumn is walking on its path, the lazy ants are sleeping, but those who are sweating now will be the kings of profit in the next bull run, it is time for accumulation, be patient brother, spring is very near!

Up or down but bounded in range!

By year end, it is so strange!!

Expect the unexpected - for a change!!!

 It could be the overlight flickering or one of those globe proponents getting creative with photoshop!  I did have a look at the flat earth section and I may have participated in the debate in the past but I came to the conclusion that "those" people just like to argue and its a convenient subject to return to when they run out of other things to "debate".  On paper the earth is flat.  <--- see what I did there?

Here is a fun post

<big snip>

and here is some news that may affect mining or not

huge bridge less than 1 year old collapses in China

https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/major-chinese-bridge-collapses-river-023758479.html


This bridge is a link to a big power plant dam

The Hongqi Bridge is located near the Shuangjiangkou Hydropower Station in Sichuan, China, which is currently under construction. The bridge is part of the infrastructure built for the hydropower project, which is centered on the world's tallest dam, also called Shuangjiangkou.
The Shuangjiangkou Hydropower Station is situated on the Dadu River.



that is ai info

and the size of the power plant is


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuangjiangkou_Dam



more ai below

No, the Shuangjiangkou Hydropower Station is not fully operational, as it is still under construction, with the first unit expected to begin generating electricity by the end of 2025. While it completed its first water impoundment in May 2025, a bridge at the station site collapsed on November 11, 2025, causing a temporary closure of traffic on that section.
Construction status: The hydropower station is still under construction, with the goal of full operation by 2027. The first unit is projected to start generating electricity by the end of 2025.
Water impoundment: The project achieved a major milestone in May 2025 when it began filling the reservoir.
Recent incident: A bridge at the station, the Hongqi Bridge, collapsed on November 11, 2025, following the detection of cracks. This led to a temporary traffic control on that section of the bridge.
Operational goal: Once fully operational, the station will have an output of 2,000 megawatts, enough to generate 7.7 billion kWh of electricity annually.


so it never was running but it would have done as much as 5,274,000 s21xps a day 24/7/365

right now the network is

 1100eh
 1100000ph
 1100000000th this is 4,074,075 s21xps

so a project that had more than enough power to run all the sha-256 miners in the world and 1 million extra ones  is set back bigly

was it sabotage? a dam big enough to run all the mining gear in the world and 20% more just for shits and giggles gets a huge setback.
