Video poster comment on above video : I just came across something extremely curious. There is a black spherical anomaly the size of Jupiter on the south east limb of the sun. I have no idea what this may be.

Recently we had reported "USGS is preparing citizens for coming solar Storms"
“By some measures this is the strongest one since December of 2006,” Kunches explained. Solar activity has already led to an R3 level radio blackout on NOAA’s space weather scale, he explained, a midstrength event on a scale that reaches to R5. Such effects are caused by X-ray emissions from the sun.
The bigger effects will hit the planet over the next 24 hours.
For one thing, geomagnetic storms -- disturbances in the geomagnetic field that surrounds the planet -- should hit the G3 level, midway up the scale. That could lead to surges in power lines (a major problem for power companies) and issues with satellites.
“Power grid operators have all been alerted, as well as the regulatory agencies that all pay attention to this,” Kunches said.
GPS users will also be affected because of the highly charged atmosphere; it’s very possible that certain types of applications will be interrupted, specifically highly precise calculations and the high-frequency communications that airplanes rely upon.
Indeed, some polar flights have already been affected, he said.
“Some have already taken action to reroute to ensure their [high-frequency communication],” Kunches said.
Solar radiation storms could reach as high as S4, he noted, which could cause astronauts on the International Space Station to seek shelter from the heightened radiation levels associated with such a storm.
These effects should last about 24 hours, probably lingering overnight into the early morning hours on Friday, pending another eruption -- “and we think there will be more coming,” Kunches said.

Nomad planets don't circle stars, but may carry bacterial life, say researchers from Kavli Institute.
This image is an artistic rendition of a nomad object wandering the interstellar medium. The object is intentionally blurry to represent uncertainty about whether it has an atmosphere.This image is an artistic rendition of a nomad object wandering the interstellar medium. The object is intentionally blurry to represent uncertainty about whether it has an atmosphere. A nomadic object may be an icy body akin to an object found in the outer solar system, a more rocky material akin to asteroid or even a gas giant similar in composition to the most massive solar system planets and exoplanets.Our galaxy may be awash in homeless planets, wandering through space instead of orbiting a star.In fact, there may be 100,000 times more "nomad planets" in the Milky Way than stars, according to a new study by researchers at the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC), a joint institute of Stanford University and the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.If observations confirm the estimate, this new class of celestial objects will affect current theories of planet formation and could change our understanding of the origin and abundance of life."If any of these nomad planets are big enough to have a thick atmosphere, they could have trapped enough heat for bacterial life to exist," said Louis Strigari, leader of the team that reported the result in a paper submitted to the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Although nomad planets don't bask in the warmth of a star, they may generate heat through internal radioactive decay and tectonic activity.Searches over the past two decades have identified more than 500 planets outside our solar system, almost all of which orbit stars. Last year, researchers detected about a dozen nomad planets, using a technique called gravitational microlensing, which looks for stars whose light is momentarily refocused by the gravity of passing planets.The research produced evidence that roughly two nomads exist for every typical, so-called main-sequence star in our galaxy. The new study estimates that nomads may be up to 50,000 times more common than that.To arrive at what Strigari himself called "an astronomical number," the KIPAC team took into account the known gravitational pull of the Milky Way galaxy, the amount of matter available to make such objects and how that matter might divvy itself up into objects ranging from the size of Pluto to larger than Jupiter. Not an easy task, considering no one is quite sure how these bodies form. According to Strigari, some were probably ejected from solar systems, but research indicates that not all of them could have formed in that fashion."To paraphrase Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, if correct, this extrapolation implies that we are not in Kansas anymore, and in fact we never were in Kansas," said Alan Boss of the Carnegie Institution for Science, author of The Crowded Universe: The Search for Living Planets, who was not involved in the research. "The universe is riddled with unseen planetary-mass objects that we are just now able to detect."A good count, especially of the smaller objects, will have to wait for the next generation of big survey telescopes, especially the space-based Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope and the ground-based Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, both set to begin operation in the early 2020s.A confirmation of the estimate could lend credence to another possibility mentioned in the paper – that as nomad planets roam their starry pastures, collisions could scatter their microbial flocks to seed life elsewhere."Few areas of science have excited as much popular and professional interest in recent times as the prevalence of life in the universe," said co-author and KIPAC Director Roger Blandford. "What is wonderful is that we can now start to address this question quantitatively by seeking more of these erstwhile planets and asteroids wandering through interstellar space, and then speculate about hitchhiking bugs."Additional authors included KIPAC member Matteo Barnabè and affiliate KIPAC member Philip Marshall of Oxford University. The research was supported by NASA, the National Science Foundation and the Royal Astronomical Society.Source : http://news.stanford.edu/news/2012/february/slac-nomad-planets-022312.html

Note: He said even people off this planet ? What the heck is that supposed to? mean? Strange choice? of words !
Now in latest development according to usgs.gov, Everyone is familiar with weather systems on Earth like rain, wind and snow. But space weather – variable conditions in the space surrounding Earth – has important consequences for our lives inside Earth’s atmosphere.
The arc of light heading towards the earth is a coronoal mass ejection, which impacts the earth's magnetic field (shown in purple), causing magnetic storms.Solar activity occurring miles outside Earth’s atmosphere, for example, can trigger magnetic storms on Earth. These storms are visually stunning, but they can set our modern infrastructure spinning.On Jan. 19, scientists saw a solar flare in an active region of the Sun, along with a concentrated blast of solar-wind plasma and magnetic field lines known as a coronal mass ejection that burst from the Sun’s surface and appeared to be headed for Earth.When these solar winds met Earth’s magnetic field, the interaction created one of the largest magnetic storms on Earth recorded in the past few years. The storm peaked on Jan. 24, just as another storm began.“These new storms, and the storm we witnessed on Sept 26, 2011, indicate the up-tick in activity coming with the Earth’s ascent into the next solar maximum,” said USGS geophysicist Jeffrey Love.” This solar maximum is the period of greatest activity in the solar cycle of the Sun, and it is predicted to occur sometime in end of 2012 - 2013, which will increase the amount of magnetic storms on Earth. Magnetic storms, said Love, are a space weather phenomenon responsible for the breathtaking lights of the aurora borealis, but also sometimes for the disruption of technology and infrastructure our modern society depends on. Large magnetic storms, for example, can interrupt radio communication, interfere with global-positioning systems, disrupt oil and gas well drilling, damage satellites and affect their operations, and even cause electrical blackouts by inducing voltage surges in electric power grids.
US National Academy of Sciences in 2008 had also warned about upcoming solar Storm in 2012 - HERE
Radiation from solar storms also affects airline activity — as a result of last weekend’s storm, both Air Canada and Delta Air Lines rerouted flights over the Arctic bound for Asia as a precautionary measure. Although the storm began on the 19th of January, it did not peak until January 24th.
While this particular storm had minor consequences on Earth, other large storms can be crippling, Love said. He noted that the largest storm of the 20th century occurred in March, 1989, accompanied by auroras that could be seen as far south as Texas, and sent electric currents into Earth’s crust that made their way into the high-voltage Canadian Hydro-Quebec power grid. This caused the transformer to fail and left more than 6 million people without power for 9 hours. The same storm also damaged and disrupted the operation of satellites, GPS systems, and radio communication systems used by the United States military.While large, the 1989 storm pales in comparison to one that occurred in September 1859 and is the largest storm in recorded history. Scientists estimate that the economic impact to the United States from a storm of the same size in today’s society could exceed $1 trillion as a result of the technological systems it could disrupt.SKY News : Tour of Doomsday Vault

Kepler-SETI Hesitantly Admits They Detected Alien SignalsIn last two years we had reported "Alien Laser Signal Gliese Coming From A Habitable Planet, Star System?", "Possible Extraterrestrial Alien Signal Received Says, NASA-SETI"
NASA-SETI : No one knows for sure what caused this signal. There is a slight possibility that it just might originate from an extraterrestrial intelligence. Published - 2011and "US Military Pays SETI To Check Kepler-22b For Aliens'.
These are plots of electromagnetic energy as a function of frequency and time. Brighter colors represent more radio energy at a particular time and frequency. For example, a radio station transmitting at 101.5 MHz would produce a large amount of energy near that frequency.
Above signal looks similar to NASA-SETI 2011 signal Why are these signals interesting? We know these signals are interference*, but look similar to what we think might be produced from an extraterrestrial technology. They are narrow in frequency, much narrower than would be produced by any known astrophysical phenomena, and they drift in frequency with time, as we would expect because of the doppler effect imposed by the relative motion of the transmitter and the receiving radio telescope.Update: Friday, January 6, 2012 After posting the plots below on January 5, it became clear that we had not stated as definitively and absolutely as possible that these signals are interference. We have update the post to make this clear. Sorry for any confusion. Source: http://seti.berkeley.edu/kepler-seti-interference
Earlier SETI tried to downplay the finding by branding it as "undoubtedly earthly interference" but after coming under-fire, now in their latest update they said "we had not stated as definitively and absolutely as possible that these signals are just interference (Earthly)." So they declared its highly likely signals are of Extraterrestrial in nature.

In the past year we’ve heard dozens of doomsday prophecies coming from all angles. But one of the most disturbing that seems to coincide almost perfectly with the December 2012 theory is drawn not from theories, but from observations about our solar system. And the conclusions made are based not entirely on speculation, but on history. And if they do occur in the way Alexey Dmitriev suggests, it will change the entire planet as we know it and might kickstart a whole new age for the human race. Even NASA has gotten in on the doomsday theory, though many are saying the picture they paint is too conservative. And yet throughout it all the mainstream media has remained eerily silent.Dmitriev suggests that in addition to the suggestion made by NASA that we may be approaching a major solar catastrophe, but they are not talking about that the Earth, the Sun, and all of the planets in the solar system are soon to enter an unknown interstellar energy cloud.
This cloud could explain a number of recent anomalies and even link together some of the strange Earth events we previously thought were part of an unexplained yet only loosely connected fabric of mysteries. The shift in poles, mass animal die offs, recent increases in the sun’s coronal mass ejections, melting ice on Mars, increases in the number of devastating storms in the United States, and sudden and sometimes completely unexplained shifts in temperature and climate could all be caused by this strange nebulous cloud of energy causing the sun to become more excited than ever before and fueling the sun to erupt into one final burst of energy that could not only destroy everything we know about our society, but also herald in a new wave of consciousness as a new generation of highly advanced and technologically minded people attempt to put the pieces back together and the infrastructure sends humanity back to a level of technology comparable to the turn of the 19th century.And Dmitriev is not alone in his theory that NASA may know more about this than they’re letting on. Quote from NASA Website "The solar system is passing through an interstellar cloud that physics says should not exist" Source : http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2009/23dec_voyager/And it’s likely that this is precisely how it would happen. If NASA or any other space agency or global government organization were to look at the world and think to itself how to tell of such an incredible change to every fundamental aspect of our lives, how would it set about doing it? How would an organization caught up in the dualistic parallels of “us” vs. “them” and ego possibly even begin to approach the concept of a complete remixing of all power on the planet? How would it even go about preparing for it? The simple truth is, it would find preparation virtually impossible.There is even another possibility. Just as people have for centuries simply disbelieved what is “impossible” or greatly different from what they understand, it’s possible the reason the very notion of the end of the world can only be dealt with in our minds as cataclysmic images and allegory is because we cannot even truly understand it. How could we when it is entirely alien to everything we know? We would only be able to deal with it through symbols and weak parallels drawn from our own experience and those of fiction. It would be like comparing a drop of rain to the ocean. Or suggesting that rain comes from the ocean when in fact you could just as easily say the ocean came from rain.NASA Spacecraft Reveals Changes at Solar System's Edge

The first eyewitness to find it states:
“I honestly don’t know if I should post this in Space Exploration, Paranormal Phenomena, Aliens and UFOs or Global Meltdown topics. I’m baffled jaw-dropped and astonished. Videos and images showing a monster coronal hole in the Sun, with the perfect shape of a triangle, were uploaded on NASA SDO website. It’s definitely NO glitch. It’s a PERFECT triangle-shapped coronal hole, it’s appearing in all spectrum of graphics and images and it must be VERY important because NASA highlighted it.”

Video of unknown luminous objects in the sky above the Kragujevac was quite lifted the leg of my father and me. Uploaded clip is minimally adjusted (subtitled), so you can easily follow the conversation that occurs between the two of us. The recording is a graphical doradivan or altered in any way.
Filmers comments:
Wednesday 21st March 2012 at 20:10. I was watching these ships at a distance in my back garden flashing my LED torch at them, they gradually kept getting closer until this happened when I least expected it, they came right over top of me allowing to quickly film them. I now know that I can contact them, as this is the second time they've approached me when I've either called them using my mind, or in this case a flash light, but this time it was a different type of ship, not the Triangular ones I've been filming. There were two types here tonight. Normally I've been filming them over at Bawsey, but tonight I thought I would trick them by not being there, as I know they've been observing me, so I watched them hovering and flying over the area that I should be, and it's as if they were looking for me. This short video is the proof that they found me, and I found them.

Mufon report:
For the last few weeks i have observed these strange lights in the sky right outside my door. on three differant nights I have taken pictures. once i zoomed in on the obects in the pictures i was at aw.
Many of our viewers saw the flash of light live on Arizona Morning last week during one of Andrea Robinson’s traffic reports. Thousands more viewed it again online.
Arizona Public Services has confirmed a breaker on an electrical line opened, causing a big flash and power outage.
The flash was caused by an electrical breaker. All day long, we made dozens of calls trying to figure out what lit up the sky. Source
