Storm activity on sun heats up in area called ‘benevolent monster’ by scientists

Scientists at the federal Space Weather Prediction Center say that area is the most active part of the sun since 2005. It has dozens of sunspots, including one that is the size of 17 Earths. Sunspots are kinks or knots in the sun’s magnetic field.
“It’s beautiful,” said forecaster Jess Whittington. “It’s still growing. The size is what blows me away.”
Thursday’s flare wasn’t aimed at Earth. However, this active region is now slowly turning toward Earth, and scientists say it will be directly facing Earth in about five days.
That storm region will only affect Earth if it shoots off flares and they hit our planet, which doesn’t always happen with stormy areas, said prediction center space scientist Joe Kunches.
The region will be facing Earth for about two weeks as it rotates, he said.
Solar flares send out bursts of electromagnetic energy that can occasionally disrupt communications and electrical systems.
For the past several years, the sun has been at a quiet end of its cycle and only recently has gotten more active. Solar cycles go in 11-year period. This cycle has had fewer storms than usual for this time in its cycle. But that may be changing.
“The sun is looking more like we think it should at this point in the solar cycle,” Kunches said. “It’s got a number of active centers.”

2012 Worldwide Nuclear Meltdown 



A solar Super Storm of the size and duration of the 'Carrington Event' of 1859 will down the world's power grid infrastructure for years... Think about that for a minute... No food... water... gasoline... radio... internet...

In short: almost nothing will be left... Hundreds of millions in Europe and the US would surely die. But this is not all... All nuclear reactors will melt down... because the cooling of the reactors fails.... Thus, a Super Solarstorm has the potential to cause a Fukushima type accident at every nuclear power plant in the world!

  2. the world needs something on this scale nature will always recover, obviously nuclear escaping would be awful for the wildlife but us humans have savagely pillaged, destroyed taken and become greedy with everything this once beautiful and resourcefull world had to offer... we seem to be the most advanced species yet we are so intent on destroying everything, the sooner mother nature reclaims and heals this precious world the better!!!!!
