Quote HistoryQuoted: Q predicted this. Akchually, Ed Dames predicted this a lot further back on Coast to Coast AM. But he always said it would be happening within the year. It never happened within the next year, and it was either Art Bell or George Noory who told him if his big predictions don't start coming true, he's done as a guest. And I think he was done, at least for some time before I quit following C2C. Ed Dames was allegedly one of the remote viewers that were used in the DoD "stargazer" remote viewing program. AF or Army officer when he was involved. |

Now the fun thing is that if you have multiple ones that clear the way to Earth, you can get a faster CME that takes hours to get here instead of days. |

Radiation from the sun should travel at the same speed as the light, right? Particles, take a few hours to a few days to weeks to get to us. Depending on what they are and the energy they have. Typical coronal mass ejection of plasma (hot particles) gets here in something like 4 days. A sunspot belching shit directly at us gives us a couple days warning and we would know what half of the Earth gets hit. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Also from the same article on spaceweather.com: "Despite its alarmingly speedy growth, the giant sunspot is less scary than it may seem. The flares it will most likely produce are M-class solar flares, which "generally cause brief radio blackouts that affect Earth's polar regions," alongside minor radiation storms, the European Space Agency wrote in a blog post. M-class flares are the most common type of solar flare. Although the sun does occasionally release enormous X-class flares (the strongest category) with the potential to cause high-frequency blackouts on the side of Earth that's exposed to the flare, these flares are observed much less often than smaller solar eruptions." calm your tits.
