Hello all, Any of you who are Facebook should check out this page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/solaractivity/726007037410643/?notif_t=grou… It was started by some local guys here in Ohio and has grown to include nearly 3,000 members--many who are really first rate solar observers and photographers. They are organizing the first "International Sun Day" this year in June and trying to spread the word as far and wide as possible. https://www.facebook.com/groups/InternationalSUNday/ ~Kelly

Huge Sunspot
by Dave Gary 04 Feb '14

04 Feb '14

There’s a huge sunspot, actually, several sunspots in one area that are clearly visible naked-eye. Use your solar-viewing glasses, of course. I may try to take a photo of this sunspot group, but there are a lot of clouds at this moment. Dave

by Rodger C. Fry 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

A friend of mine and fellow geologist has been undertaking the spectral analysis of stars for many years. He has managed to get a spectral image of the super nova in M-82. This shows the chemical signature of the elements in the SN. Here is a link to his work: https://scontent-a-dfw.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc1/t1/s403x403/1654422_6460876 65429200_1028007911_n.jpg Thanks Rodger C. Fry

NASA's "scientific instruments" must be nearsighted. The image of the L-shaped thingie approaching from millions and millions of mikes away is much more detailed than the one of it ensonced in its Chicago-size crater on the moon. ------------------------------ On Wed, Jan 29, 2014 3:42 PM MST Dave Gary wrote: >Finally, an alien civilization that has the presence of mind to wipe us out.
