FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
From: SpaceWeather.com
Magnetic fields on the suns northeastern limb erupted around 17:45 UT on April 16th, producing one of the most visually-spectacular explosions in years. NASAs Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) recorded the blast at extreme ultraviolet wavelengths.
The explosion, which registered M1.7 on the Richter Scale of solar flares, was not Earth-directed, but it did hurl a CME into space. Analysts at the Goddard Space Weather Lab have analyzed the trajectory of the cloud and found that it will hit NASAs STEREO-B spacecraft, the Spitzer space telescope, and the rover Curiosity en route to Mars. Planets Venus and Mars could also receive a glancing blow.
Using data from SDO, Steele Hill of NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center assembled a must-see movie of the event. It shows the explosion unfolding at 304, a wavelength which traces plasma with a temperature around 80,000 K.
Coverage of the blast was not limited to space telescopes. Amateur astronomers saw it, too. Jim Lafferty sends this picture from his backyard observatory in Redlands, California:
