Huge Triangle-shaped Spot Over the Sun
jojo_it writes "NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory photographed a gigantic spot on the sun's corona, that takes the shape of a black triangle. The spot is visible on the AIA 193 channel [of NASA's solar dynamics observatory] since March 11th. 2012 doomsday-theorists should be delighted."
maybe I'm blind, but I don't see ****.
It's all part o the Illuminati's plans, man!
Indeed. Possibly the worst summary I've ever read here.
Slashdot seems to think the following is news worthy: The sun does things scientists know about and understand; ignorant people don't and jump to conclusions. Your increasingly sensational headlines make me hate you more and more every day slashdot.
Then maybe you'll stop posting pointless comments anonymously. If the sun only did things scientists understand, they wouldn't bother studying it. Just read Science sometime. Scientists are barely beginning to underand the earth and they live on it.
Yes, that video is much higher quality, especially when he zooms in on the anomaly. However the part at the end where he suggests the sun is "giving birth" to a new planet is just totally out there.
Better known as 318230.
You would think that a good summary would be posted here, of all places, that told what this was, and left the conspiracy theory nonsense to the comments section at youtube. So instead of news for nerds, we get news for conspiracy minded idiots.
