What In The World Is Happening To The Sun?

    We could not survive without the giant ball of fire that our planet revolves around, and so the stability of our sun is of the utmost importance.  Unfortunately, it has started to behave very erratically lately.  Scientists are telling us that they think everything is just fine, but the truth is that they don’t really know.  We are witnessing activity that is truly unusual, and I believe that should deeply alarm all of us.  In fact, I am entirely convinced that the behavior of the sun will become a really big story in the years ahead.

    Let me give you an example of what I am talking about.

    Last month, a portion of the sun’s northern pole actually “broke off” and created a “massive polar vortex”

    The sun has been experiencing bizarre behavior recently – in February, a piece of its northern pole broke off.

    A video shows a giant filament of plasma, or electrified gas, shooting out from the sun, separating and then circulating in a ‘massive polar vortex.’

    While astronomers are baffled, they speculate the prominence has something to do with the reversal of the sun’s magnetic field that happens once every solar cycle.

    The size of this polar vortex was absolutely astounding.

    It is being reported that it was 74,500 miles high and “14 times larger than Earth”

    The incredible moment a colossal ‘solar tornado’ that is 14 times larger than Earth swirls on the sun’s surface has been captured by NASA in a new video.

    The twister, composed of plasma and heat, measured more than 74,500 miles high and moved up to 310,000 miles per hour.

    Is this behavior normal?

    Scientists don’t really know, because they have never seen anything quite like this before.

    A few weeks later, we witnessed an absolutely colossal coronal mass ejection that traveled away from the sun at a speed of “at least 3,000 kilometers per second”

    Late on Monday, March 13, the Sun blasted out a coronal mass ejection (CME) traveling at at least 3,000 kilometers per second (6,700,000 miles per hour), possibly the fastest ever recorded. The expelled particles reached the Earth’s orbit in less than a day. Had they hit the Earth, the results could have been catastrophic, but fortunately the CME was directed almost directly opposite. However, the explosion is a reminder the next time we may not be so lucky.

    Wow.
