Here is a 3D visualization of the coming solar... storm using model parameters from NASA's run, NOAA's run (shown below), and the coronagraph views from STEREO-A/COR2 and SOHO/LASCO. The storm is expected to hit Earth early December 9. The 3D visualization clearly shows the low inclination orientation of the solar slinky core inside the larger storm envelope. Of course, the earlier eruption that erupted to the northeast, might deflect this structure a little bit, but likely that will only make the structure move more towards the ecliptic plane, which will give us a larger chance of crossing through the solar slinky core. One nice thing about low inclination flux rope cores is that they almost ALWAYS have southward field in them at some point. So this is good news for aurora photographers-- as long as this solar storm stays true to its launch trajectory and inclination, we could see some organized southward pointed magnetic field. Considering this solar storm is fast-- that usually indicates the storm will not deviate much from its original launch trajectory! Here is the link to a static frame of the 3D frame visualization so you can fly around it yourself:show more

Our Sun and Earth have finally calmed down and... we are back to low level solar storms and some minor fast solar wind. Here is a nice 4-day view of the Sun from SUVI in 284 Angstroms with the latest GONG magnetic field line model overlay. Old region 4274 is still up to its tricks, firing off the last big flare before rotating off the west limb, and later, launching another storm on the farside! For us, right now we are still getting a little fast wind from a northern coronal hole but that will wane over the next 24 hours. Expect another pocket of fast wind from the coronal hole passing center disk to arrive in about 3 to 4 days. Outside of that, conditions are reasonably calm Earthside, even with the new regions rotating into view in the southeast. Cannot say the same for the farside though!show more

THE WORLD IS ALMOST ENTIRELY SOLAR-POWERED ALREADY. MOST PEOPLE... KNOW THIS, BUT DON'T REALIZE THEY KNOW "I'm quite confident that the primary means of power generation will be solar As I mentioned earlier, we have to have sustainable electricity production as well as consumption It's really indirect fusion, is what it is. We've got this giant fusion generator in the sky called the Sun, and we just need to tap a little bit of that energy for purposes of human civilization What most people know, but don't realize they know, is that the world is almost entirely solar-powered already. If the Sun wasn't there, we would be a frozen ice ball at 3 degrees Kelvin. The Sun powers the entire system of precipitation; the whole ecosystem is solar-powered I'm confident that solar will beat everything hands down, including natural gas. It must, actually. If it doesn't, we're in deep trouble No, we actually are. You can buy a solar system or you can lease a solar system. Most people choose to lease The thing about solar power is that it doesn't have any feedstock or operational costs. So once it's installed, it's just there. It works for decades; it'll work for probably a century Therefore, the key thing to do is to get the cost of that initial installation low and then get the cost of financing low. Those are the two factors that drive the cost of solar. We've made huge progress in that direction, and that's why I'm confident we'll actually beat natural gas"show more

Understanding Tonight’s Solar Storm and What It Means A... G5 is the top of the scale, the kind of solar storm powerful enough to light up the skies across half a continent and, in extreme cases, mess with the infrastructure that quietly runs our world. It’s not science fiction; it’s space weather, and it’s happened before. Back in 1989, a storm of this strength knocked out power to six million people in Quebec for nearly a day. Go further back to 1859, the famous Carrington Event and you get telegraph wires bursting into flames and aurora visible in the Caribbean. On that scale, tonight’s storm doesn’t look apocalyptic, but it’s still serious. Right now, the readings have hit what’s considered a G4 to borderline G5 level. That means the Earth’s magnetic field is being hit hard by a burst of solar plasma and what scientists call a coronal mass ejection. Essentially, the Sun hurled a cloud of charged particles at us, and when it collides with our magnetosphere, it compresses it like a drum. Those magnetic fluctuations induce currents that can run through anything long and conductive…power lines, pipelines, satellites, even the ground itself. That’s why space weather alerts always talk about power grids and communication systems. Modern infrastructure is built to handle volatility, but not cosmic scale volatility. Grid operators are already shifting load and monitoring for those geomagnetically induced currents that caused so much trouble in 1989. Satellite operators are doing the same…tweaking orbits, rotating hardware, reducing exposure. The idea is to ride it out rather than resist it. For the rest of us, the biggest impact is aesthetic, aurora could be visible much farther south than usual, maybe as far as the Gulf states if conditions hold. It’s one of those rare nights where a solar event becomes a cultural one. But it’s also a quiet reminder of how thin our technological skin really is. A strong enough storm can reach across space and touch systems that feel untouchable like our grids, GPS, communications, even financial networks. The storm is expected to peak overnight into November 12, and while it likely won’t reach the catastrophic intensity of 1859 or even 1989, it’s strong enough to make the world pause and look up. For a few hours, the same force that powers life on Earth, the Sun itself becomes unpredictable again. Right now it’s a light show. But it’s also a humbling one. Every now and then, the universe reminds us that we’re not in control of as much as we think, we’re just living inside the weather system of a star. 🎥 Here’s actor Dennis Quaid talking about what a worst case scenario could look like if a truly massive solar storm ever hit.show more

🚨“The Chinese, who manufacture virtually all of our solar... panels…have been installing cellular radios inside the inverters, which can act as kill switches," says Michael Shellenberger "There was actually a Chinese solar company that turned off the solar panels and sent up a little message to its users, saying: we've turned this off because these solar panels are only authorized to be used in certain countries. …So we know that the Chinese solar companies—all of which essentially can be used as arms of the Chinese military…they are able to to switch off large amounts of solar. And if you are able to do that, then you are able to cause the de-powering and blackouts of the grid. How big of a problem is this? …I think most national security experts view this as something that the Chinese could do if there was, for example, an invasion of Taiwan, and the United States decided to defend Taiwan. The Chinese could potentially trigger blackouts in the United States and Europe. As crazy as that sounds, that is the reality."show more

Elon Musk: Solar is already the source of the... vast majority of Earth's energy. “A lot of people would say, well solar, can that really provide the energy that we need? A lot of people don't perhaps appreciate that solar energy is already the source of the vast majority of Earth's energy. Without solar power, we would be a frozen ice ball at about 3 or 4 degrees above absolute zero. So really, all we're talking about for solar electricity is taking the tiny, tiny bit of energy that humanity needs for electricity, which I emphasize is super tiny compared to the amount of solar energy that hits the Earth. You could generate all the electricity that the United States needs with about a 100 mile by 100 mile grid of solar power. So you just take like a corner of Arizona, and that would be all the energy that the United States needs.” From: / Youtube, December 4, 2011show more

You will remember that a month or two ago,... I posted about the solar system at my home in Johannesburg, which has allowed me to hardly use Eskom or City Power because it generates enough energy for my entire usage, including powering geysers. After that post, one of you on this page, a solar expert, reached out privately and advised me to remove the electric geysers from the main solar system. He said the solar batteries were doing too many cycles because they were powering the geysers, and that this would shorten their lifespan. His advice was simple, remove the geysers from the battery load if I wanted the batteries to last the full period that they are built for. I took that advice seriously. I then asked my plumber, Shanil, who owns Metro Plumbers, to guide me on where to get high-quality solar geysers in Johannesburg so that I could replace the electric ones. Shanil told me about a new technology called the Elon Smart Solar PV System. He explained that it is much cheaper than buying completely new solar geysers. Instead of replacing the electric geyser, you simply buy the Elon unit, which comes with its own solar panels, and it is fitted onto your existing electric geyser. That is what I did. I have now removed all four electric geysers from the home solar system that powers my home. Each of them has been converted using the Elon Smart Solar PV technology. They are now powered by their own dedicated solar panels. The four geysers are running on a total of thirteen panels. So what this means is that I will never use Eskom or City Power again because in the past, when it was cloudy for three or four days, I would return to the grid to assist the batteries. This was happening because the batteries were carrying a heavy load that included four geysers. Now that the geysers have been removed from the main solar system and converted to their own dedicated solar supply, I will never return to Eskom or City Power. Even on cloudy days unless the solar system breaks down. The system is able to generate enough power for everything that I need. I also use a gas cooker, which helps reduce the electrical load. I hope this information helps you. If I had gone for the top-quality geysers that are exclusively solar, I would have paid between R25,000 and R30,000 per geyser. That would have come to around R120,000 for four geysers. Of course, there are cheaper solar geysers that you can get, but they are cheaper for a reason. So, in essence, I saved half the amount I would have paid for the geysers if I had chosen top-quality solar geysers. If you are in Johannesburg and you are interested, Shanil’s number is +27 (76) 890-5582. He can do the work for you. The gadgets and their panels cost R60,000 from Plumbing Supplies Sanitaryware Centre in Woodmead. So I have had the system in place for a week now and it is working very well. I have deliberately allowed all the geysers to continue heating so that I could test whether everything is functioning correctly, and the water is as hot as it should be. So that is the story. I thought I should share it with you for those who might want to reduce their bills. P/s The other interesting key feature of this system is that I can control it from my phone. If it is very cloudy and the water is not as hot as I want it to be, I can simply go onto the app and instruct that particular geyser to use the grid. Unlike my previous setup, where I had to switch the whole home solar system onto the grid, now each individual geyser can independently switch to the grid and heat the water to a temperature that I have set. Once the water reaches that set temperature, it automatically disconnects. I can also decide to switch off a geyser from using electricity, in my case from my solar system, or for those who do not have solar systems, from Eskom. In the same way, I can switch it off from using the solar panels. For instance, if there are four geysers and one of them is in a bedroom that is not being used, I can switch off that geyser completely so that it is not heating water unnecessarily. This gives you control, flexibility, and saves you a lot of money in the long run. You can read more about this technology here;show more
