-From this life, we will take what we live and witness in this world, our actions both good and bad are stamped on our souls. Happy moments and sad moments are the ones that make us grow as beings in development. Material achievements are not added to our conscious being. To live the details of each moment that are stored in our memory. And in moments of introspection in which we remember these, these are the goods that we have conquered here and will carry forever from our being.
The living nature of this world is a good example of perseverance in maintaining memory and always renewing itself according to new conditions. But this nature of this world is very strong, and even with the devastation caused by human beings, it walks lives and permanently renews itself!!

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.
source: https://soho.nascom.nasa.gov/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.
That's old news actually. Stereo-B went into an uncontrolled spin sometime in 2014 and they gave up on periodic attempts to establish communications back in 2018. Stereo-A is still working but it currently orbits the sun about 45° ahead of our planet so it would be more of a front-side view. It does give a better perspective for earth directed CMEs though.

SO - Solar Orbiter (European-lead project)
I can say that I am almost an amateur of the subject, of which I have been curious for a long time, but without training in the field. I remember very well about 30 years ago, when I didn't have access to the internet, and in school days, a classmate always sent letters to NASA and with a matter of months he received good quality photos of various astronomical announcements, photos of new planets, galaxy supernovas.... And nowadays, we have direct access to NASA's website and several observatories around the world, as well as various research carried out by several researchers.
...when sharing about 'STEREO' I just wanted to mention that they were the first satellites to be launched in order to observe the other side of the sun, where most of the CME events are concentrated..(and by coincidence, on October 21, 2025, 'C/2025 N1' was last seen by the existing means here on our planet, and will be sighted again by the same means from December. and according to the researchers currently involved, in addition to variations in course and speed, it is having an interaction with the sun from which it is increasing the activities of CME,and according to NASA, it continues to be observed by the following means:
"NASA has been studying the icy visitor 3I/ATLAS with space telescopes including Hubble, Webb, and SPHEREx. When the comet passes Mars on Oct. 3, multiple spacecraft there might catch a glimpse. The comet is on course to pass behind the Sun in late October, and venture past Jupiter in March 2026, on its way out of our solar system" and, "With NASA's Eyes on the Solar System interactive app, you can follow comet 3I/ATLAS as it travels through our solar system and see where it's headed next.", "NASA assets that are planning to gather observations of 3I/ATLAS include: Hubble, Webb, TESS, Swift, SPHEREx, Perseverance Mars rover, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Curiosity rover, Europa Clipper, Lucy, Psyche, Parker Solar Probe, PUNCH, and ESA/NASA’s SOHO and Juice.") and in the link I associated with STEREO, SOLARHAM.COM, says about what happened to ST. B, (Solar Ham: Site Information
SolarHam.com launched on March 15, 2006 with the purpose of providing real time Space Weather news and data from various sources, all in one location for easy navigation. The site was created and is still maintained solely by amateur (HAM) radio station Kevin VE3EN. >

...And then, when I also associated it with the Slade's
Two Track Stereo, One Track Mind music, incredible as it may seem. I noticed a certain prediction of them in pun that they would never imagine that this would happen, and maybe only I noticed these similarities of the song written thousands of years ago (hehehe) with the event that happened with STEREO B,..>
"With her ONE TRACK mind

She was hooked on TWO track STEREO
With her one track mind
woh-ho-oh One track mind
What's going through her mind?" (ST.'B', in the case).
the current location of Stereo-A (kind of a misnomer now... maybe they should rename it Mono)
or use a mono to stereo converter on ST.'A', maybe it improves the quality a little... hehehe...

SpaceX’s Satellites Are Falling From the Sky Every Single Day While the SpaceX answer to affordable worldwide internet may not be the worst threat to our part of the cosmos—especially compared to other, larger satellites—one to two of their 8,000 satellites are already falling back to terra firma every single day."

SpaceX Starshield Satellites Might Be Violating International Standards20 October 2025,
SpaceX’s Starshield satellites are now drawing attention online after reports about a possible breach of international standards made headlines. These reports stemmed from the findings of Scott Tilley, a satellite tracker who claims the satellites are using a certain uplink frequency for downlinks.
International Telecommunication Union Standards
To coordinate the use of radio spectrum across the world, the International Telecommunication Union has put several standards in place. One of these standards forbids the use of uplink frequencies between 2025-2110 MHz for downlink, as it can prevent full duplex, or simultaneous, communication
According to Scott Tilley, Starshield satellites might have been transmitting on an uplink frequency, where satellites should be only receiving signals. Trying to point out why this is an issue, Tilley told NPR, “Nearby satellites could receive radio-frequency interference and could perhaps not respond properly to commands — or ignore commands — from Earth.” At this time, it isn’t clear if SpaceX’s actions affected the communication of other satellites with Earth.
However, Tilley points out to NPR that if any problem arises in future, it might be caused by SpaceX satellites. There has also been no confirmation of this allegation from the International Telecommunication Union."

Firstly, I am not an expert; merely an enthusiast searching for another hours-long, rainbow-coloured, aurora borealis fix before I die.
I totally agree, because after we leave here, we will no longer have access to the internet to do research that suits our interests.
And if it is of interest to you, I will leave here some information about a very important observatory that is close to my city about 50km, and since I was little, I have wanted to visit there, but to this day I have not made this visit, because it is not easy.
Pico dos Dias Observatory"is an astronomical observatory owned and operated by the National Astrophysical Laboratory of Brazil "
"Observatory code 874, Location Brasópolis, Minas Gerais, Brazil, Coordinates22°32′04″S 45°34′57″W, Altitude 1,864m(6,115 ft) Established 1980 , Website

.A 1.6 m (63 in) Cassegrain reflector built by Perkin-Elmer first became operational in 1981.
.A 0.6 m (24 in) Ritchey-Chrétien telescope built by Boller & Chivens and installed in 1992 is jointly used by LNA and the University of São Paulo.
.A 0.6 m (24 in) Cassegrain reflector built by Zeiss Jena was purchased in the 1960s through coffee trade with East Germany. It was installed in 1983.
;ASPOS OKP
In April 2017, Russia's space agency, Roscosmos, opened the first Automated Warning System on Hazardous Situations in Outer Space (ASPOS OKP) at Pico dos Dias. There will be another three stations in the system.

On the site, you'll find images of two of them being updated every two minutes 24hours a day(sometimes offline for maintenance or other reason), that are pointed to the milky way:
All Sky 1All Sky 2There are also several videos about it, and I looked for a shorter one, unfortunately it does not contain subtitles in English, but the article is very interesting, from which the reporter interviews a resident researcher(Wagner Corrad, LNA Director) and he explains good points about it. Just as the difference between a professional, who can have access to the telescope after a project to be approved, is the difference between an amateur, who in his view, to be an amateur of astronomy, just look at the sky and enjoy the stars. He also says why visits are limited to one day a year, because the dust from people walking there hinders the view of telescopes. and he also says that even the wind interferes with the light received from the stars.
And astronomers who get authorization, and get research time, send the commands remotely.
He also says that thanks to studies on the sun, the device to do tomography was developed.

in addition,
_ I want to apologize for this Big ShitPost.
..and say that I have been following what _cAPSLOCK have been saying, I have always had a concern with consensus, forks, disagreements, and also with time, new members will replace them, and we do not know what they will think, since the current ones are already in this misdemeanor... Whether it is right or wrong on some points, I believe it is a valid concern. but it is also a subject that I prefer to just follow and leave to you experts.

And in the meantime, I'm waiting for the last few days of the month to see if Bitcoin will close below or above the opening of the month.
